Don Johnson vs. Reggie Fountain
 
Is anyone familiar with the '84 race, "East vs. West" where Reggie Fountain raced Don Johnson? What boats were involved? Pics?

Thanks- Bryan

Hi Rick: Im sure you
know the Don Johnson
43ft Scarab.
I did a conversion
from race to pleasure boat for Steve in Ventura.
I don't wave the Scarab flag anymore.
And half the people
on this board were
still in dipers in
1984.;)
So how you been.

then, why did you ask which boats were involved?

Are you, one of "those" kind of guys... or, one of "those" kind of guys?

Joooe,

I only own one of the boats...

Wondered if anyone knew anything about it, 'cause I don't.

:eek: ;) Thanks for the clarification! It'll be interesting to hear how the race went. Good luck in your search.

Bryan, I would like
to hear about any
information of this
SO CALLED East/West
race between reggie
and Don J. in 1984.
I racked what brain
I have left trying
to recall anything
like that.
I even called the
OLD Professor Warren
Robbins VP at scarab
and he said the same
thing "There was never a race between
them, They were at
a lot of races at the same time and both raced.
If there was a race
I hope you get some
info.
OH Don did run one
of Tom Gentrys boats
also in 1984.
But it was not in a 10 meter Boat????

As soon as I get ahold of Fountain and get the scoop, I'll let you know what I know.

Maybe it's one of those urban legends, 'cept on the water. Like maritime legend...
