2022 Poquoson Seafood Festival Work Boat Races

This year’s festival kicked-off with the Poquoson Seafood Festival Workboat Races on September 18, 2022 at Messick Point.
After two years, the races returned and remain one of the most prestigious Workboat Races in the Hampton Roads area. As always, the races were conducted on Poquoson’s Back River with Chesapeake Bay Dead Rise Boats and other working craft. Spectators and captains enjoyed this annual salute to the Working Watermen of the Chesapeake Bay.
