You're a dumbass then. Not that I don't like Fountains, but Hustler's a better boat.

Try to sell your 1990 Fountain and tell me about value...

In eight years I have owned four Cigarettes and loss a total of $27k in depreciation. No matter how fast the boats went, THAT is the performance I want when I buy an offshore boat.

Now you can put your aluminum beanie back on and go play in the microwave again.

They could been more effective, like using one cigarette and making it resemble a Cigarette boat, but we all know what they mean.

Probably the best double entendre advertising I've seen was a billboard in Tampa recently. A liquor warehouse opened up near I-275 and Dale Mabry. A high-flying billboard was rigth over the building. So ABC Liquors rent teh billboard and puts:

Bail & Switch Pricing is Totally Beneath Us (with an arror pointing down tot eh building.) Pretty funny.

Then there was Joe Redner from Mons Venus who famnously put on his marquis in 1999: Why worry about Y2K, come inside and get your "laptop" serviced.

Dumbass? Isn't that a little harsh? You should show a little more respect for your OSO brothers....
Fountain is a well known product. It may lack certain things, but at least you know what you get .You get a great hull and alot of performance for your $$. Hustler is an unknown. The quality of their boats have been ok, but nothing spectacular. Maybe the latest models have improved. Who knows. Its consistency that counts. Both Cig and Fountain are consistent. And, that's where I would put my $$ before I go with an unknown. Again, I wish Hustler the best and look forward to personally inspecting their new line-up.
