hydroplane

Dave Villwock has found a new seat in an unlimited hydroplane.

When Villwock, 70, drives the boat, he will become the oldest driver in unlimited hydroplane history.

Ryan Burks helped his son Ryder, 11, in and out of the hydroplane they built through the Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum’s J-Hydro program.

For those whose recreational interests lean more toward the nautical, the Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum in Kent offers a range of programs and displays that both inspire and entertain.

The nation’s only public museum dedicated solely to unlimited hydroplane racing, the nonprofit reaches beyond pure recreation to benefit children and wounded veterans, as well.
