hey guys, I just wanted to chime in, I am coming to key west the last weekend of march. Without a boat what winds directions can I ride and what are the best places to launch besides smathers?
additionally are there people who take boats out to launch in different areas around key west that I can pay for a ride, and how much?? Any help is appreciated! Danny

Smathers is pretty much it for Key West unless you are highly motivated and willing to take on some extra, perhaps a lot of risk. Key West has only one designated launch, that is at the extreme west end of Smathers Beach. Perhaps Greg has something to offer on this. See what the Florida KB Guide has to say about rideable wind directions at:
http://fksa.org/showthread.php?t=2278 The Kitehouse runs regular sea taxi out to the Key Flats rideable in winds from all directions. This has been highlighted in articles for some years now. Pretty interesting write ups too, surprised you never saw them before. If you're going to drive all the way to KW, best to plan on time out in the Flats in all that butter, shallow warm water, no powerlines, smelly beach bottom, etc..

I've heard of some of the best places accessible by boat only, that goes for living here in Clearwater, fl on the gulf.
Thanks for the update. Woodson posted another thread about our trip down that maybe some people could offer some insight into. http://fksa.org/showthread.php?t=5710 Danny
