Rick Cline's first experience in photography came at a young age while he was 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 Los Angeles Times to name only two. In addition to photography Rick has written three books and enjoys many outdoor activities. Rick's first exposure to drag racing came at Lions Drag Strip in Wilmington, California, around 1964. He once raced a 1955 Chevy at OCIR, Orange County International Raceway, in Irvine, California. Raised in a power-boat family who spent nearly every summer water-skiing, it seemed almost second-nature for Rick to take interest in drag boat racing. And so in 1981 he turned to the exciting sport and became deeply involved.
For over ten years, Rick was the unofficial historian for the IHBA (International Hot Boat Association). His race stories and photographs appeared in publications including; National Race Boat, Powerboat Magazine, Trailer Boats Magazine, Hot Boat Magazine, National Drag Boat and many others. Rick also covered circle boat, k-boat and unlimited hydroplane races, and did various work for the APBA (American Power Boat Association). Following the 1986 drag boat season he produced a high-quality full-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.
Our website has been revamped and includes the opening of our vast boat racing archives. Believed to be the most complete and perhaps best photographic library for the years of 1981 to 1997. Our archives include driver and racing statistics with historic data, many newspaper clippings and magazines covering these memorable years of drag and circle boat racing. Since departing drag boat racing in 1997, Rick Cline has ventured into the publishing business with R. A. Cline Publishing. And as mentioned above, written three books on World War II.
