My dad never claimed he invented the step bottom, notch setback transom, pad. They have all been around for many many years(prior art). What he did was combine all of these in a way that dramatically increased the performance & handleing of a performance boat.

I wanted a fountain since I was kid, and always remember my parents saying those boats cost to much to run etc. Well I finally scraped enough money after deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan at almost 30 to buy an older 91 Fountain fever 29. Love the boat its in good shape specially for the age, I would die for a newer one or wish I had the cash to take my current boat and pretty much have it totally gone over and redone and make it new again, I would really love that, but probably cheaper to just buy a newer used one, but these days and working for the feds and getting our paycheck cut down, probably going to be riding the old dog for some time being.
I dont get into brand wars and if you like your boat fine, if you dont like mine, I really dont care. But the fountain is proven and there is facts to prove it, is it better or worse than others, IDK, im not getting into that. But I can tell you I have people I know that couldnt tell you what a Camaro looks like or that chevy makes it, but the first time they saw my boat, they said man you have a fountain. Or being at the docks and people pass by that arent boaters say nice fountain, then go onto the next boat which is whatever brand and have to ask the guy what kind of boat he has. So theres something to the name. |
I have been a fan of fountains since I was a kid. The more I look at them the more I like them. Exterior styling, interior styling. The helm is by far the best layout and looks of any of them in my opinion. I look forward to seeing this and would love to run into Reggie somewhere. I like my formula but working hard to buy a fountain.

I highly respect the fact that it was applied and never rested on testing and tuning till it was as perfect as it could be.
