UIM F1 H2O 'Hall Of Fame' - For the third straight year since its inception the UIM F1 H2O World Championship for powerboating will honor two of its four nominees for its ring of honor and once again the determination of the two new 'Hall of Fame' inductees will fall to the thousands of web browsers who surf the F1 H20 website throughout year.

The opportunity to cast a ballot will be made when a web searcher goes on to the official website and chooses two of the four people they feel most deserving for their selections into immortality.

The winning two people who have accumulated the most votes combined from the internet voting and selections made by the international media will be a guest of series promoter Nicolo di San Germano and brought to the gala end of the year celebration at the Grand Prix at Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates on the 15th and 16th of December to be honored into the 'Hall of Fame'.

'I feel this is a wonderful way to celebrate the special people who have made a mark in this sport and to have all our fans from throughout the globe be part of the process is really outstanding,' said Nicolo. 'We have a very noteworthy group of talented individuals that in their lifetime have dedicated their time to this sport and once again it will be difficult to not want to take all four people into the 'Hall of Fame' instead of just two.

This year could be our closest voting process and I can't wait to see whom my honored guests will be in December in Sharjah.' View Profile of Candidates here.

The 2011 UIM F1 H2O World Championship 'Hall of Fame' nominees are:

1 - Ziggy Boettle (USA)
2 - Arthur Mostert (NED)
3 - Charlie Strang (USA)
4 - Michael Werner (GER)
