    Fountain CEO named

    Reggie is not dead, not a real valid comparison. If Col. Sanders was still alive and left KFC and started another Chicken business, with what he new about the business..... well, guess you can see where this was headed.

    NXT vs #6

    Was told, that the 6's were used on the NXT 700 package on Fountains because of the high X deminsions, the NXT drive skeg was not long enough for that application, and caused some handling concerns at high speeds.

    Time for another V bottom speed record?

    Record attempts may be useless in most minds as marketing tools, if it were not for the efforts of those in the industry to raise the bar, and push the envelope would the industry be where it is today? It could be Mercury Marine developing more horsepower, or V and Cat designers making faster...

    Outerlimits updated website - 28 footer

    One would think that a 28 foot boat would be more along the lines of an entry level boat for most performance boaters. Yes it would fill a very specialized nitch for folks who want to down size, and want the quality of an OL. You have to wonder how many buyers like that are out their at this...
