Matt didn’t have to mention transom replacement, it’s on the homepage of their website.




BTW, I did get your tongue in cheek remark, just thought I’d add my own one.

I'm not a Fountain boat fan, but I've always respected Reggie's enthusiasm, marketing skills, and impressive racing career. Love this move by Fred Ross. Agree, Matt; it's

very timely since new boat sales are slowing down dramatically, and this will save some Fountain boats that otherwise would have been scrapped. I especially like that

"Fountain is providing an online clearing house for buying and selling pre-owned Fountain boats on the Fountain Certified Website. The listings, which will include a detailed

description and up to 25 photos of each boat for sale, are scheduled to start in March 2024."

It's got dog clutches yeah, but actually I believe that drive cutaway is from something in Mercury's outboard line-up.
Was also posted in this thread and claimed a Bravo.
For a time it seemed like Mercury had that cutaway on their site for every drive they had.

And just think, it wasn't long ago that the "NEW" Fountain company didn't not want to support the "OLD" Fountain customers,

How times change,
