Both Sandy and I watched the video. I wish every manufacturer took the time to educate the buyer before the sale. Streamline on how every hull is checked with a straight edge which is basically being blueprinted is how he stays on top in the speed department. I was also unaware that Fountains steps are air rated, I think this is also a great plus. I believe Outerlimits is the other manufacturer that does this as well. I also apprieciated the check for no hook in their notch transom, all this adds to why Fountains hulls run the way they do. I give credit where credit is due, good job Fountain.
I'm not to arogant to say, that you can always learn something. I especially liked the diesel/surface drive segment, as well as docking, I thought very informative, Thanks... Jeff

I bought a 32 Fever with 502s back in 93. There production was like 150 boats a year then and Reggie went for a sea trial with everybody who picked there boat up at the factory(i hear he still does sometimes). It was one of the best hands on learning experiences i've had in a boat. We were given race suits and helmets with intercoms. He even put me on the pier at his house and did a drive by so i could see the proper running angle on the boat. Then we went to lunch and he even had a reserved table at the Golden Corral in Washington N.C.
