Check out the My 35' lightning in the beginning of show 1 of "Gone Country" on CMT. Julio Iglesias sort of rode it into the beginning of the show. It was pretty cool to see it on TV. I couldn't talk about anything until the first show aired but I got to the after party and the final show taping and meet all the cast so it was pretty neat. Julio Jr. is a pretty cool dude in reality.

I saw that
, first thing I noticed was the Fountain. He should win just based on his good taste in powerboats.
The million dollar question, per my gf, who the f@ck wins?

Curious to hear how it all came about.

They approached the marina where I keep her. The owner has a houseboat slip just down below me and they were looking for a powerboat. He said I have just the guy for you and got us all together. Got an approval from Fountain and off we went. The lake here in Nashville where I boat doesn't have many powerboats and there isn't another fountain on the lake that I know of so I just lucked out I guess. It was really cool being involved.

just scroll down to the featured video's and click on "coming to my town" and you can watch. The boat is in the first 5 min of the show and that is about it but it was still cool to see it like that.

I sure can't tell you who wins but they did crown the victor the night of the finale show that they taped at the wildhorse saloon when we went to the after party.

Figured you were sworn to never tell, never hurts to ask. Why would approval be needed from Fountain?
Congrats on your minute of fame, cool deal.
