About Us
Award winning photography since 1981
Rick Cline's first experience in photography came at a young age while he was involved in the sport of surfing. But it wasn't until 1981 that he turned professional. A native Californian, Rick has since earned several awards for professional photography and photojournalism. His images have been published around the world in hundreds of publications including "the National Enquirer" and "The Lost Angeles Times" to name only two. In addition to photography Rick has written three books and enjoys many outdoor activities. A skilled water skier since he was a child, Rick captured the trophy in a speed ski race at the age of 34. From 1981 to 1997, he was deeply involved in the sport of drag boat racing. Few might recall, Rick also covered many circle boat, unlimited hydroplane races and even did some work for the APBA. Following a terrible 1986 season in drag boat racing when the sport lost several drivers he produced a high-quality four-color drag boat poster, "The Liquid Quarter Mile." Five years later in 1991 Rick followed it with another classic, "The Liquid Quarter Mile - Part 2." Both can still be purchased right here on our website.
While he is still active in the photography business Rick has recently revamped this website and due to countless requests, just opened a new on-line store to fill the needs of past and present drag boat fans, crewmembers and even former drivers. Our photo archives are the most complete and perhaps best ever for the years of 1981 to 1997. We have countless stats and data, with many newspaper clippings, magazines etc., covering these memorable years of boat racing.
Since retiring from drag boat racing in 1997, Rick Cline has ventured into the publishing business with R. A. Cline Publishing.
Thanks for visiting our web site, we look forward to serving you!
