Thanks for the insite..
Funny World, I raced Dirt
Bikes 60s-70s, TT, Desert,
MX.
In the early 70s a guy came out to the Desert and
never raced but did say he
Raced Boats Offshore, We
talked some about boats.
Larry Smith (Scarab) who
Years later I worked for.
Now Excaliber was the first Fountians and looks
like wellcraft will now replace A lot of Scarabs
and have with Excalibers.
OH WELL. Mike J.

I remember seeing very early Fountins at the NY boat show back in the late 70's. They were Chris-Crafts, 33 foot I think. With Executuioner on the side and 1000 HP. They had Gale Banks turbo engines.
They modified the bottom with the pad.
Still had Chris-Craft on the side too.
