    Key West Charter Boat Recommendation

    My father - in - law, obviously in a weak moment, offered to take my wife and I deep sea fishing out of Key West next week. Problem is, the last time I went fishing out of EYW was on my honeymoon 13 years ago and the boat we took is probably working as a reef up the chain somewhere. Do any of...
