What about the Fountain name? Does Liberty have sole use of it or does your father?

At 72 years old and $20k a month he couldnt swallow his pride? Genius. That's what investors want to put money in, an egomaniac 72 year old that looks like hell..............and those kids of his, there's some apples that fell far from the tree.......

See he is bad at math, yesterday he said he's sold 991 million and just 24 hours later over a billion. Hell whats 9-10 million bucks.

I am no huge Fountain fan of his pleasure boats but it's hard to knock what he's done in racing, being an x motorcycle road racer at just the club level, what I spent to know I had what I needed to be able to win the final 3 years was more than I spent on my Nortech and I have nothing to show for it other than a busted up body a bunch of trophies and pictures and some stories thats it.

What do you think the % of what the company made he spent on racing? I bet the bean counters had a fit. I am sure it was listed as advertising. "So Reggie last year you spent 10 million on advertising last year" $hit and it cost even more when you have to get real smart guys to find ways to bend the rule book a little too.

Hate to see anybody anybody go though this, Would have been nice if one of the George Bush's would have given him the heads up on the economy when they were ordering their boats.

Seems he has enough ego still to not go jump off a cliff. The only reason I could see at another start up would be if he had the dream of leaving the or now A company to his kids. I do wish him luck, I see him being more like Mark Mcmanus now but more like 10-15 real nice boats a year in the 35-50 foot range and 300k and up. More than likely just go fast too at least for a while.

Yes he does, has a passion and drive for building boats and that will not stop until the day he dies! You got it Smitty, what size would you like! Cat Killer or a Vee Slayer, pick your pleasure!
