“The Boss Peter Knight sen.” With Rod Dew.

“A young man with fire in his veins won his first powerboat championship on the Christchurch Estuary 1959 in a humble Grey Nurse V-bottom. Forty years later, Peter Knight was still winning, breaking through the time barrier to claim the New Zealand Grand Prix championship and the allcomers' King of the Nationals title at Lake Karapiro in his futuristic black hydroplane, Boss Mobil 1.

In a sport where lightning reflexes, courage, and sure judgement are an absolute necessity, Peter Knight reigned supreme. But he was much more than just a very skillful driver. His greatest successes came in boats he had built himself in an abandoned service station in Latimer Square.

Peter Robert Knight sen., MBE, is one of New Zealand's most successful and durable champions. This is his remarkable story”.
