The World’s Most Dangerous Race: Key West Offshore Boat Races!

On this episode of Dive Bar Pilot, we’re flying down to the World Championships of Offshore Powerboat Racing in Key West for the one of the most extreme motorsports on Earth. These huge racing boats hit 160 MPH on open water where disaster is only a second away. The danger and excitment levels are high, and we take an inside look at what makes them work.

I’m introducing you to one of my closest friends, Carlos De Quesada, a championship-winning race car driver who now pilots one of the fastest offshore boats in the world. We dive into the engineering behind these carbon-fiber monsters, tour the cockpit, and see what it takes to survive a blowover at full speed.

The quick jet teaching segment breaks down how jets navigate using Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STARS)—the “highways in the sky” the FAA uses to funnel aircraft safely to airports from every direction.
