Chad and Casey Boat tied the knot in 2019 and had their first daughter, Chloe, the following year. The couple are popular figures in the NASCAR community, with Chad Boat having competed in Indy Lights and NASCAR during his racing career. He also co-owned a USAC National Midget car team called Tucker/Boat Motorsports, which won the 2020 championship with driver Chris Windom behind the wheel.
