2005 Baja 30 Outlaw with HO's
Good question/topic. I am considering the purchase of a Baja by Fountain, but concerned about the longer term viability of the manufacturer. I was told Fountain had an invester come in and "bail them out" and that they had hired some folks back, and that they were building boats for 2010. Can't seem to find any current info on the state of affairs at Fountain. Any comments/help appreciated. Thanks guys.

Fountain is building boats but certainly at no where near the level as in the past.....and they did have a display at the Lauderdale show but it was on the inside under roof not on the water

I would buy a boat from them without concern. I think they will be around for a long time. Call Tony at the factory. He will take care of you.

Thank you all. I appreciate the responses. I have read nothing but positive information about what Reggie has done to the Baja line-up. Thanks again.
