American Power Boat Association
The American Power Boat Association (APBA) is an American membership-owned corporation. In 1903, New York's Columbia Yacht Club had formulated a constitution for what ultimately became the APBA.[1] It is the United States sanctioning authority for the Union Internationale Motonautique, the world governing body for powerboat racing.[1] Headquartered in Eastpointe Michigan, the APBA has over 3,500 active members and sanctions over 150 races nationwide. The APBA sanctions all types of power boat racing from 205+ mph Unlimited Hydroplanes to smaller Junior Class racing starting at age 9.[2]
Hall of Champions
Each year, the association inducts powerboat drivers into its "Hall of Champions".
