One thing is for sure.. If anyone other than Reggie can make this work, It's Nick. He's a warrior. One of my mentors. Old school all the way

Fountain Powersports 43

Buy back Fountain at pennies on the dollar when it goes belly up.

She is a sweetheart.

Wasn't the Executioner the original Fountain, designed and built by Fountain and resurrected several years ago? Also many boats have "beaks" they are just unusual on performance boats. If Reggie Fountain Sr. does build a new boat I see no reason it couldn't have a beak. Personally I don't think a new boat company is in the near future for Reggie Fountain and sons. There just isn't room for another custom high end go-fast. He may be up to something but my bet is that it does not involve large boats . Remember that Pier 57 dropped Fountain, Donzi and others to concentrate on MTI and Cigarette not too long ago but before the Fountain Bankruptcy and before Donzi was sold. Just some observations. We'll see what the future brings.

Wish these guys luck, but I think Fountains dead ...... Could bring it back as a retro in a couple years, might work .....

A man starts a boat building company, builds it up, makes it successful, sells the company, starts a new boat building company, builds it up makes it successful, sells it, starts another new boat building company...
Sound familiar?

Exactly!! Except Reggie didn't do that. He stuck with his original company long after Fountain Powerboats lost their mystique. The 42' Fountain was my absolute dream boat.......many years ago! I think it is too late and the timing not good for Reggie to start a new boat company. It does seem clear that he isn't looking to retire and there are other boating related options. Soooo

Hey Gordo!

Your comments definitely mirror what Don was able to do with his companies, but not anyone else that immediately comes to mind, certainly not Reggie other than on the race course.

Don sold his companies when he was ready to, on his terms, & usually for a profit or advantage to him in some way. He also did it multiple times, where Reggie started one company that did have success, but unfortunately lost that success, & ultimately lost him as a result of it's decline.

Hopefully Reggie will be able to start something fresh soon, & have the success that you mentioned above.

Yeah you would you old perv!
