Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book recounts a 1910 race between powerboats from Philadelphia to Havana, and back to Atlantic City. The race was unique in that it was the first ocean race started from Philadelphia, and the first having a destination in the West Indies. The book covers the race start, its progress, and the festivities and hospitality enjoyed by participants during their week-long stay in Havana. The author argues that long-distance races such as this one are essential to advancing the design and engineering of powerboats, and that the experiences of his fellow competitors have taught valuable lessons.
