One of the most recent stops on the 2016 FPC Summer Poker Run Tour was the Thunder in the City Poker Run. Check out a recap of the event from Speed on the Water, below!
Though the solid fleet of 40 high-performance catamarans, V-bottoms, center consoles and cruisers in the 10th annual Thunder In The City Chesapeake Bay Poker Run in Maryland enjoyed fine, albeit brutally hot, conditions last Saturday, Mother Nature put on a show not long after the run concluded. Back at the docks, participants were treated to a raw thunder and lightning show, as well as an extended downpour, that knocked out power—during dinner of course—at the Chesapeake Bay Inn, the event’s host venue.
Tim Sharkey joined official event photographer Randy Nuzzo to handle the video for the event, and Sharkey also managed to capture a number of still images. The late-afternoon storm, he said, was almost as impressive as the poker run.
“Fortunately, I believe all made it back to the Chesapeake Inn just in time before the storm hit,” Sharkey said. “The rain was coming down so hard I could not see the boats at the end of the docks. It was a sight to see.
