No hate here, they are righteous vessels.

-Very much looking forward to checking out their new 29 in Miami!

If I'm not mistaken, I think his association was with OL Racing, not OL boat company.

always thought racing was an LLC setup for racing but was separate from the boat building business and not even in the same building.

However, I'm not expert so don't quote me as fact.

OL in production..
Fountain is history. Enough said..
Besides, I know both Mike and Reggie personnally. I rather have a drink with Mike and have an OL then a drink with Reggie and have a Fountain. (not getting into the Reggie/me history here.) Both are great boats. Period.

Hey Pete

I dont think anyone here has commented on the quality of the boats.
Both great boats for sure.

One of the prettiest boats on my home lake is an OL.

How long was the OL cat MY WAY around before it was sold ?

Not trying to start anything here.
You'd laugh at that statement if it wasn't coming from him.

Agreed though that the above would put a bad taste in a lot of non OL owners mouths, especially Fountain owners.

From what I've seen though ( as a fairly decent glass guy/ X builder) the OL build quality is as good as it gets.
