FPC's Tampa Bay Poker Run, 2016

[Shoot 2 Thrill Pix]

"The Tampa Bay Poker Run delivers both on and off-water excitement for performance boaters. As far back as the mid-90’s, FPC has been cruising the water of Tampa Bay with it’s allure of downtown St.Petersburg waterfront, vibrant nightlife, great dining, abundant marinas and variety of accommodations. All checkpoints in the Tampa bay. Distance: Approx 100 miles." FPC

Here are not only some shots from the Saturday run, but starting with the fun/lunch run on Friday. About 25 boats showed up on Saturday to participate in the lunch run, but the Bay was a bit rough. So, even though the original plan was to run south, only about four boats made that southern leg. The rest decided to go north where there was a bit calmer water.

It looks as if there is a rain/storm front moving through the Tampa area soon. So, since I know everyone down there will be complaining, I thought I'd throw up a couple shots I just took outside the house here in Holland, MI.





Maybe they won't be quite so miserable if they see this..........
