Rich's Story

While I'm sure the Q&A fits a lot of people...... It ain't me babe! Half the questions/answers DNA. Went right to work out of High School while attending CW Post College at night. Got married and had a baby son before I was 20. Have three sons from my first two marriages, and am currently happily married to my third wife. I started my first career as an Industrial engineer for a NJ Trucking company to pay the bills. Made quick progress and wound up being recruited by a transportation consulting company when I was 22. Two years later started my own consulting firm with a partner and that lasted 19 years with projects all over North America. After that I started a Trucking company that covered the Eastern half of the USA, and sold it 10 years later. I finished my career as an Executive VP and "C"...Expand for more
level leader for two major Trucking firms over a 14 year period.. Since I started powerboat racing as a kid on Flushing Bay, that became my avocation and I was privileged to be a factory backed outboard race driver. This led to starting two race boat manufacturing companies and a 30 year stint as a color commentator on boat racing TV programs. I also write articles on various boating topics. I am currently completing a series of interviews covering Boat Racing icons for Sirius XM Radio. I am semi retired with some consulting work and remain active in Vintage boat racing events. I am also Chairman of the American Piwerboat Association Offshore Racing Commission and an active Commissioner of the Union of International Motorboating, the World overseer for Powerboat Racing headquartered in Belgium.

Today It is with a heavy heart that I learned of the death of my friend and one of boat racing’s international icons, Jack (Jackie) Wilson. He was a heart warming humorist, a gifted craftsman and artist, a fierce boat racer
