BOATS & BROS: with Lake of the Ozarks Shootout Director LEAH MARTIN

Boats & Bros Podcast

We catch up with arguably the busiest woman in Lake of the Ozarks, MO, Leah Martin. She has completed here second year as Executive Director of the "world's largest unsanctioned boat race in the U.S" the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout and, along with her dedicated team, has already managed to raise an astonishing $675,000 for the local charities. Never being satisfied, she has her sights on raising more for next year, as the event will embark on their 36th year.

The event has also acquired the rights to produce the popular offshore race in Lake of the Ozarks, MO formerly known as Lake Race / LOTO Powerfest. The event will span the weekend with the inclusion of the F1 Powerboat Championship and potentially more record-setting Kilo Runs, similar to the ones ran at the end of the Shootout in August, 2024. This event is also for charity, as Leah continues her crusade to raise more money for those that need it most.

She has also assumed the role of Executive Director of the Lake of the Ozarks Marine Dealer Association, where she will coordinate the area's boat shows.
