APBA Elects New President 2026

By: Dana Potts | Marketing Director | Sep 26, 2025

APBA Elects New Leadership

The American Power Boat Association (APBA) is proud to announce the election of its new officers. Kurt Romberg has been elected President for a two-year term, with Kip Brown as Vice President and Mary Williams continuing as the President's assistant. Monica Allen was elected as Secretary and Brent Walbrun as Treasurer.

In addition, APBA extends its sincere gratitude to outgoing President Chris Fairchild for his six years of dedicated leadership and service. His commitment to the sport of powerboat racing and to APBA’s members has been instrumental in advancing the organization.

This new leadership team brings energy, experience, and passion for the sport, and will work closely with members, clubs, and partners to continue strengthening and growing boat racing nationwide.

Please join us in congratulating Kurt, Kip, Monica, Brent, and Mary, also in thanking Chris for his outstanding contributions to APBA.
