No matter what, Reggie has always been able to pull a rabbit out of his hat.

Well I just got back from the Indy boat show and while there I had the pleasure to meet and speak at length with Wyatt Fountain. Wyatt was meeting and greeting at the Baja by Fountain display for our local Baja dealer. Wyatt confirmed that the Fountain factory is very much open for business.

Imagine that, yet another unfounded rumor in the boating industry.

I was on the phone Friday with
Fountain customer service. They were as friendly/helpful as ever. Seems like they were open and ready for business.

Bob, were you at the Indy show? Trying to follow your statement, considering your NH location.
I agree there is a difference between the old and new Bajas. The Indy dealer has both a old and new 35 OL on their floor, so very easy to do a side by side comparison. I'd take the new one in a heartbeat.
