Man I haven't seen the board this hot in awhile! Steve, you're buying me dinner!
Everyone needs to keep in mind the Fountain is a publicly traded company that has seen a sharp decline in their stock recently. As a result, they are currently in great need for publicity good or bad. Generating a buzz of any kind can only help get the word out to investors that they are trying to advance. Press releases in some cases are designed to make good situations look better, and make difficult situations look manageable.

I have owned both cats and V's, and currently own a Skater, but there are some water conditions that I would definielty feel more comfortable in a big V.

I have not heard from Kilo on this thread. I don't know the man, but from what I can see on this board I have a lot of respect for him. He must have something brewing and it's not beer. At some place and some time Reggie is going to have to eat his words.
Reggie builds a great boat and has a great company, but you have got to admit the man is a tool. Can you see any other CEO of a company going on TV and talking like that. I am amazed that he can fit in the helo with a head that big.

What's 170? It's the test run. The new boat is capable of 200+.
