The poker run will be held at Saltsjobaden in the beautiful Stockholm archipelago, typically with 50+ classic boats in the run.

Saltsjobaden is sacred classic boating waters, the first Swedish motor boat exhibition was held here in 1922 and it was the arena for the Royal Motor Boat Association races in the 1920s and 30s.
