Good disclaimer. For some reason people on this board hate a man who does nothing but love boats and fast boats at that.
From everything I've heard Mr. Fountain is a nice person who just loves boats. Never heard a bad word from anyone who has met the guy. Why the hate?

Because being passed hits you right in the testosterone, so its easier to hate then it is to try to catch the man.
I will always have respect for Reggie and the real Fountain, and did before I was an owner. I know quite a few people that have switched brands for more cabin but still wear the gear and even fly the flag.
We all seem to hate on other brands and owners, but this one is the easiest because the man's name is on the boat, and he was every where. Besides Don himself, name a bigger celebrity in this sport? I sometimes wonder if Don was not shot if he would get the same heat.

I don't own a fountain but I'm tirelessly working to own one. They are by far my favorite boat. In my opinion no one has styling even close. Don't care if a 35 is 22 feet or whatever else BS Slower boats claim. Someone pull a string line down the keel to the beak and tell me the open area is significant in weight or room. Doubt it.

Mr. Fountain is a good businessman and this is the proper way to protect himself and his customers ... A class way to do business and continue to do business , which he is now doing... Mr . Wm Gates met Reggie and was impressed enough to back him in his new venture ; that is good enouigh for me , for what that is worth... John G. Douglas
