RACE VILLAGE or DRY PITS – Area where boats are parked and spectators are allowed to view the race boats and their rigs.
HOT PITS – Where the boats are craned into the water.
WET PITS – Where the boats are staged after being craned into the water. Crew chiefs and teams work on their boats in this location prior to the race.
FUELING – The location, typically outside the race village, where all teams fuel boats with a required amount of fuel they have to purchase from the sanctioning body, which is part of the sponsorship package.
PHYSICALS – Required of drivers and throttlemen on test days and race days before they can attend the drivers meeting.
DRIVERS MEETING – Drivers and throttlemen are required to attend this meeting every race day morning. The meeting gives an overview of any changes to the course, the number of laps, and the starting order for all boats and teams for each day of competition.
EVENT VOCABULARY
ROOSTER TAIL – The large column of water thrown out from the propeller.
STEP HULL – This consists of one or two steps molded in the hull near the stern. The step allows air under the hull, reducing friction and permitting about a 10 percent increase in speed.
STUFF – When a boat launches off a wave and “stuffs” the bow into the next wave.
TURN BUOY – The orange marker that signifies the turning point of the racecourse.
YELLOW BUOY – The marker that signifies the start/finish of the racecourse.
BLOWOVER – When a boat suddenly goes airborne and flips.
ROLLOVER – Can occur when a boat turns sharply at excessive speed. The boat literally rolls over on its side, either flipping upside down or rolling back to right side up.
CANOPY – The cockpit cover or hardtop provides substantial protection to the crew and encloses the crew inside a cockpit.
CATAMARAN – Also known as a cat, a twin-hulled boat that packs air and lifts the boat, causing it to actually fly across the top of the water or tops of the waves.
V-BOTTOM – The original performance v-shaped hull designed boat.
CAVITATION – When air is drawn into the propeller blades, causing the prop to slip.
CHINE WALKING – The boat dances from side to side on the chine, the lower edge of the hull. Normally caused by exceeding the hull’s design speed or by poor balancing of the boat.
FEATHERING – Backing off the power when a boat becomes airborne so the engines do not over rev.
KITING – When a boat flies off a wave, raising the bow and flipping backward.
LOWER UNIT – The lower half of an outdrive or outboard that contains the drive gears, propeller shaft and the propeller.
MILLING CIRCLE – The area where boats circle in the water according to their actual race class prior to the start of a race.
ORANGE SMOKE – Becomes visible typically three minutes before the start of a race. It makes angel ships and teams aware that the race is about to start.
