Leading The Fountain Powerboats Comeback

[@bigmeaney555]

I saw my first Fountain in 1981 when I was 10 years old and dreamed of owning one ever since. I just bought an 01 29 Fever at 50 years old.

Great episode. Bought my Fountain 12 years ago and don't ever intend parting with her. They get in your blood and create some spectacular memories. Congrats to Jeff and team for resurrecting the brand.

* goosebumps ! ... * speechless ! ---> GOD, Family, Low Country and Fountains ! Great Production SOTW & Scrapyard !! Thanks Reggie, Jeff, Fred and all who have served, been a part and worked at Fountain from the beginning and now to help in their success. I have owned 4 Fountains and will always own a Fountain. GOD Bless

One of the best marine story’s EVER, seriously everyone, I applaud you all

[@speedonthewater]

Thanks!

Good video. Thank you. I knew quite a bit about Reggie Fountain but I didn't know about Jeff Harris. He has quite a history as well.

Wow nice video! Its music to my ears when you see a Fountain roaring through the Pamlico River heading towards Ocracoke! I really love what has been coming out boat wise from MTI, and especially Midnight Express. All these boats owe their ohmage to Fountain Power Boats. When you see a Fountain these days its like seeing Michael Jordan. Its a special moment and they are in a league of their own. I hope the Fountain soars even higher and one day maybe consider building an ULTRA PWC. Its gonna be nice to see those Mercury 500R motors ripping the water behind a Fountain soon in the River. Reggie has always been a cool dude and its good to see the company going the right direction with new leadership and vision. See you guys on the River this weekend! Thanks for the video!

[@Skater100mph]

Man would it be nice to see Fountain bring back their 24 footer with a single big block.

I was in the boating industry with my dad n let me tell u truth....making Profits in anything Boating. Especially Racing..is Absolutely Hell !!..

[@WavetoWaveBoats]

Great video guys.

[@classiccarson9760]

Conflict with fountain and mti(regi and randy) doesn’t make a lot of since to me because mti would never make a performance V and fountain wouldn’t have made a cat back then

[@weselmendorf2195]

prolly business politics and closed office door tensions ... all great companies have it

[@jplotkin3380]

Yes, I believe that coupled with limited market shares

[@dieseldog00]

The only V bottom boats MTI builds are the 42, 50, 52 and 57 center consoles. Fountain builds 34' o/b cats now but Reggie has nothing to do with that part. B ack in the early days Reggie built a cat and it was involved in a fatal accident. Reggie said he would never build another cat for his customers. That accident scared him.

[@classiccarson9760]

@@dieseldog00 oh I did put know about Reggie’s accident and I don’t think mti makes a 52v

[@noeldrach7956]

Bring back the 24SC

[@hkm_865]

You never miss a fountain when you see one

[@nascar8and20]

Yup! That eagle look design

[@teampenn2007]

I want that life jacket.

[@johnwhitter]

I’m a diehard Fountain fan but go look at their website. They make one….ONE model that’s a traditional go fast that the company was founded on….the 42 Lightning and that’s it!!!! Really disappointing to see. I get it though…the market doesn’t really support them much anymore. Everyone wants the roomy open cockpit and those ridiculous outboards. I hope it’s just a passing fad and they can get back to their roots by building some of the baddest go fasts around.

[@aceseights8815]

Go recapture the speed record!

[@BeachBumBoatsmith]

I need to be working with these guys. Reggie is my idol anyway.

[@davidheitman7004]

oh my god! build some smaller fast boats. it's so easy.
