Download or read book A Driver's Guide to Safe Boat Racing written by Bob Wartinger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boat racing is fun, and here's a guide that describes ways to improve the driver's safety and increase the enjoyment. Aimed primarily at the novice driver, it may also be considered a refresher for the more experienced driver. A legacy of numerous driver's experinces have been boiled down to simple do's and don'ts. This guide draws attention to the "decision chain," which affects the probability of a racing incident occurring, and emphasizes that attention to these decisions early on tends to minimize the risks later. Fundamental information includes facts about personal equipment, the cockpit environment, defensive driving, the anti-doping policy, and other topics. A concerted, consistent practice of adhering to these suggestions not only lowers the risk of injury but also improves performance.

Download or read book Powerboat Racing on the Chesapeake written by William W. Mowbray and published by Cornell Maritime Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book that documents the development and history of racing activity on the bay. It focuses on the limited, inboard racing classes of the American Power Boat Association (APBA) because those craft have been the racing segment most avidly followed in the region. The drama of racing and the personalities of those involved are conveyed through the author's first-hand experiences gathered during close to thirty years of following Chesapeake Bay regattas. Particular tribute is paid to the owners, drivers, and mechanics who have risked their money, and sometimes their lives, to undertake the exciting and dangerous sport of powerboat racing, and, in so doing, to entertain the enthusiasts who follow their activities. An appendix listing of boat names, owners, and classes will surely be of interest to any racing fan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for the Major Motion Picture Directed by George Clooney—exclusively in theaters December 25, 2023! The #1 New York Times bestselling true story about the American rowing triumph of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin—from the author of Facing the Mountain For readers of Unbroken, out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant. It was an unlikely quest from the start. With a team composed of the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington’s eight-oar crew team was never expected to defeat the elite teams of the East Coast and Great Britain, yet they did, going on to shock the world by defeating the German team rowing for Adolf Hitler. The emotional heart of the tale lies with Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not only to regain his shattered self-regard but also to find a real place for himself in the world. Drawing on the boys’ own journals and vivid memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, Brown has created an unforgettable portrait of an era, a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest.
