Newsweek In the Powerboat Nation—July 25-August 1

One month—that’s all the remains in the go-fast boating event season. But like July, August will be flush with organized happenings such as Rock The River Cincy Fun Run in Ohio, the Rocky Top Power Run in Tennessee, the Lake Champlain Poker and—last but far from the least—the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout. Plus, the offshore racing season resumes again, starting with this weekend’s XINSURANCE Great Lakes Grand in Michigan City, Ind. But in case you missed last week’s action, it’s all right here for you.
