It looks like it has officially gone international.

A factory backed Fountain and a factory backed Outerlimits both in Evolution Class in P1. There are a couple of other Fountains scheduled to race in P1 this year but they are private entries.

This could get interesting.

Full P1 press release.

Fountain Powerboats BUILDS boats. Factory support in powerboat racing means they SELL you a boat and certainly cheer you on to victory, if you are lucky enough to win .

Hey Lute. Whats going on with the Fountain. Wanna come up and race with us? Got some good stuff going on. Ocean City Md. I'll hook you guys up if you want to come. Smitty

Can you hook us up too ?

Hey Smitty !
I love OC., Matt Rice and I raced there in 2000, in his 38 w/800s against a Blue and white TG. WE had'em covered and my dumb azz said "Save your shat" .....Bad move
They kicked our tails by 700 yards.
I learned a very valuable lesson that day:

"Back off for a second; and that's where you'll finish"

The Yellow boat sold and I've been renovating a 20 yr old house . I'm itching.. Woods is pushing MTI and I haven't gotten the right call yet. The yellow boat is Shogren's, I don't have a ride..Can I even post in here? I'm puzzled.?.?
I am headed over to Greers Ferry sometime this weekend to watch. It's too close to not go see who will talk to me...hehe
What's the dates for OC ?

June 15 -16 Sorry to hear about the Boat, She was fast. Come on up anyway, Lots to do in Ocean City.

I think you are already HOOKED UP. Jimmie I heard your boat is done.

Should be very interesting!!!!

I cant open the pictures

Smitty were you factory backed because I only have one set of props and I have his son in the boat.

If I mispoke, my apologies. The press release mentions that the team will under the control of "Fountain Worldwide".

So if the team isn't factory backed, perhaps it's "international distributor" backed.
