Cool vid! I'm sure I'll get flamed for this but Reggie did a ton for our hobby. Imagine if he was building and testing boats with some of the new power plants now!

I never see anything about those v12s here. Does anyone run them and rebuild them?

No flames from me. Reggie did a lot for the sport and the industry.

Absolutely!

Reggie gave us: Left handed throttles, saw blade graphics, funky windshields and black waterproof hair dye!

Just kidding, Reggie has more trophies than all offshore brands combined, he was passionate about the sport and his brand. I have met most of the east coast builders over the years and Reggie was easily the most charismatic guy of the bunch. I hope he is having a blast in retirement!
