Jean Claude Simon designs the Excalibur........ a successful race and performance hull..... and winner of Production class , World and National Championships

Reggie opens his own plant..... puts a beak on the Excalibur....and "Voila!"....the first Fountain is born.... a bold and highly creative step.
Later he adds steps....along with every other yahoo monohull builder on the planet..... and (in unison) they all claim to be the first...... except Reggie's steps are bolder and more highly creative.
Finally Peter builds his race boats...at Skater...and Fountain becomes much more successful on the race course....( What a coincidence)..... (Simultaneously Reggie races a Skater Cat...with Fountain scrawled all over the sides)....a bold and highly creative stroke
Reggie takes the construction technology back to Fountainville, North Carolina...... in a bold and highly creative stroke.
What ever happened to Jean Claude Simon.......... The creator of Fountain you ask? He's someplace with Tommy Adams the creator of Signature hulls........which became another (two) of todays "Bold and Creative" vee bottom boat lines.
The moral of the story?
Buy a Skater........
or an Excalibur
Reggie did.......

Wanna see real "bold and creative"??????
1964 Custom Craft cat/tri........built by a guy named H. Donald Conazzi in Buffalo, NY. How does this compare to today's "newest step technology"?
To people like ol' H. Donald ....vee bottoms have been boring for decades.

George replied..."I love it....but, lose the name....Let's call it trid instead."
I thought a minute and reversed the letters and decided "dirt" was a better term.
So OSO'r's........ always remember.............. that dirt....
is trid spelled backwards.

Rich, you're getting dillusional again 
Better get the cat out and go boating. Quickly before any more of these weird rambling thoughts creep to the consious side of your brain and end up on your key board
