The new 41 looks much better then the first and the cat deck is very nice. So Fountain somehow crushed some boat molds and Donzi contracts out for a new catamaran mold sorta implies Iconic is funding Donzi to build new and Fountain puts some lipstick on existing stuff.

When the boys received the mold they were more than disappointed to see that it lacked both the ZRC's pad bottom and the notched transom. So they warned management, "With the bottom you are giving us this thing is going to be a turd!" Management responded by saying, "Speed isn't everything" and to go ahead and build it - so they did. At least the boys convinced them that calling it a ZRC would soil a great name - and it was changed to GT.

So the boys at the factory were all excited to hear that they were going to get the opportunity to build a new ZRC with triple outboards. Naturally they wanted to do the mold in-house but were overruled by the bosses and JC was contracted to make the mold.
