This year’s FishLipz Powerboat Fun Run at Pates Ford Marina was nothing short of spectacular. On July 23rd 2024, the waters of Center Hill Lake came alive with the roar of engines and the thrill of speed, as powerboats of all sizes and styles participated in one of the most exhilarating events of the season.
The 2024 event attracted boaters from across the region, all eager to show off their vessels and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow enthusiasts. The scenic backdrop of Center Hill Lake, with its pristine waters and rolling hills, provided the perfect setting for a high-energy day on the water. As the boats zoomed from one checkpoint to the next, spectators along the shoreline were treated to stunning views and impressive displays of boating skill.
A highlight of the event was the organized stops at various lakeside venues. FishLipz Bar and Grill, the marina’s own hotspot, served as the central hub for food, drinks, and music, keeping the atmosphere lively well into the night. The sense of community was palpable, with participants and spectators mingling and sharing stories over meals and drinks.
For those who love speed and adventure, the powerboat fun run did not disappoint. The boats ranged from sleek, high-powered machines to more laid-back cruisers, ensuring there was something for everyone to admire. The weather also played along, with sunny skies and perfect water conditions making the entire day feel like a summer dream.
But it wasn’t just about the race—it was about the experience. Whether you were an adrenaline junkie hitting the throttle on the water or cruising the stops in hopes of that ROYAL FLUSH, the 2024 FishLipz Powerboat Fun Run delivered on its promise of fun, excitement, and great memories. Pates Ford Marina, with its incredible facilities, plentiful dockage and inviting atmosphere, continues to be a premier destination for boating events like this.
