Jet fuel powered boats with over a 1000 horsepower deafeningly speeding though the Gulf is something everyone can marvel over. The Emerald Coast Boat Week and the Emerald Coast Poker Run is in its 21st year in Northwest Florida. The celebration benefits the Emerald Coast Foundation, an organization that supports local children's charities and youth organizations. The event includes The Miss Boat Week Bikini Contest, Lucky Ladies Casino Night at Helen Back, and The Emerald Coast Poker Run. More info on the event can be found here.
