Google Earth @ 24d 37m 42.70s N x 82d 52m 27.08s W. It's something way, way out in the Gulf of Mexico, west of Key West. Looks man-made in my version of GE...

It's Fort Jefferson on Garden Key.

The hi-res picture aerial picture isn't quite in line with the low-res satellite photo. It lines up almost perfectly with the satellite view of the island just to the East.

Fort Jefferson on Garden Key. Who put it there? How long ago? I need to do a Google search...

A short, one-page introduction to Fort Jefferson. Good reading...

M$ Virtual Earth has an object out there too.. Not sure.
I do see other boat traffic in some shots. Maybe it is someone's yacht.
