Rooster Tales: Memories Of A Boat Racer

In boat-racing terminology, a rooster tail is the spray of water following a speeding boat that is produced by its propeller. In this writing, Rooster Tales is what the name impliesa compilation of short boat-racing tales or stories, as remembered by a veteran member of the boat-racing fraternity. The time period covered is the twenty-five years following World War II, which has been termed by many as the golden years of the sport. This writing is separated into three distinctive periods: the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. In each period, an overview of outboard racing, in general, is offered, followed by short stories of the authors and fellow boat racers experiences during that particular period. This writing, while amusing and informative at times, is intended to give the reader a sense of how it felt to be a participant in the sport during its heyday.
