Book excerpt: The Great Outboard Race is the history of the Winnebagoland Outboard Marathon. Hundreds of boats started and few finished. The grind was 88 miles of rough water through 4 different lakes in central Wisconsin. Drivers came from 27 different states with some as far away as California. The best of the nations outboard pilots came to the Winnebagoland which had the best prizes. Hundreds of boats would start the race providing a spectacular sight for the large crowd. Over 100,000 people witnessed the last race in 1961. The Mercury Thunderbolt engine provided speeds of over 60 MPH in 1949 when outboard racing was most popular. Outboarders would race from Lake Winnebago up the Fox River and into Lake Butte des Morts. From there it was on to Lakes Winneconne and Poygan. Navigating the cut-off they entered the Wolf River and proceeded to Fremont where they turned raced back to Lake Winnebago. The cities of Neenah and Fond du Lac, Wisconsin were hosts for this race. Media coverage of the race had a national flavor. The Milwaukee Sentinel, Boston Globe, Look Magazine Lakeland Yachting Magazine, Boat Sport Magazine, Outboard Magazine, New York Times, The International News Service, United Press, Associated Press, Radio Stations and Television covered the event. This book covers the thrills and spills of the roughest and toughest outboard race in the country. Boats crashed, flipped, and broke. Motors failed and drivers were injured. Exhausted drivers were happy to just finish the race. The book has all the finishers with their model of boat and engine. The people behind the scenes are included. The organizers, the prizes and the officials are all listed along with 31 Photosof this great outboard event. Today this race is stilled talked about among the outboard racing circles.

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.
