Chad Boat is a professional driver who raced in American national single-seater and stock car series from 2013 to 2017. He competed primarily for Billy Boat Motorsports, an owner-driver operation that also fielded his father Billy's entries; his most sustained involvement came in NASCAR Xfinity, where he started 17 times across the 2014 and 2015 seasons on oval tracks.[1]
Across four seasons and 29 starts, Boat took one podium finish, which came in ARCA Menards Series racing in 2013. He competed in fields that mixed amateur and semi-professional drivers with established professionals and graded drivers; his racing brought him into regular contact with Chase Elliott and Ty Dillon, both substantially more experienced competitors against whom he consistently finished behind. Boat did finish ahead of Christopher Bell once and Kyle Larson twice, though both were early in careers that would later see them reach elite professional status and win major NASCAR championships.[2]
