GRANTS PASS, Ore. — Jeff Lewis proved age is just a number, while the number nine is one of significance.
The Grants Pass resident won three of four legs Monday in the Tom Rice Memorial Whitewater Hydroplane Race on the Rogue River to claim his ninth championship at Boatnik’s most prestigious event.
Lewis’ victory broke his tie with Don Burnison for most all-time wins, but Lewis gave Burnison, his close friend, credit for this triumph, too.
UIM President visits APBA headquarters
For the first time in nearly a century a Union Internationale Motonautique (International Powerboat Union) foreign president made his way to APBA headquarters.
“I am very happy and proud to here at the APBA Headquarters in Detroit. I took the opportunity while I was at the [International Olympic Committee] annual convention in Quebec City,” UIM President Dr. Raffaele Chiulli said.
