Thought he was very open regarding the Exclaibur to Execuitioner transition. Still get a chuckle over the cat killer video an he admits it was a pure race boat.

I think that boat is owned by Billy Frenz, a HORBA board member and the head guy at NPBA that promotes the northeast poker runs and the Around Long Island Race.

The red boat that had Hot Shot on the side in this documentary is the boat.

Good show, enjoyed reliving all the memories of the early tunnel boats.

Cat Killer "racing" pleasure boats during the Jacksonville (I believe that was 2006 according to the documentary) Poker Run was a low point in the Fountain history for me, but beyond that I enjoyed the program.

What a Commercial !!! - A self appointed, self crowned King - I think not ! Just a long commercial to stroke the ego of the so-called King ! Never heard anything about stock manulaptions or how many vendors were worked over many times ! How many bankrupts too ? Only a brief word near the end ! Typical NBC - say it enough times, and you start to believe its true ! Airing at 2:30 on a Tuesday afternoon - for sure a TIME FILLER ! My guess is it was a paid production ! Now lets see if NBC does a show on Peter Hedlin, of Skater or Cougar Boats - or Cigarettes ! NBC could always put one of its Sharpton shows to fill time too !
