Nominee: Reggie Fountain

You should have seen him...... when ever he came to Skater wearing Ban Lon shorts with his shirt tucked in side of them .... smelling like a dime store Whore (Cologne ) along with wearing his Mr T starter kit and enough grease in his hair to grease an axle............

Hey Artie,


Which of the Fountains were built at Skater? Just the record boats?

Paul to tell you the truth i really cant remember......... considering we built so many frickin fountains over the years from Dramamine to Popeyes which were all composite boats using Epoxy , S & E glass , Kevlar, Carbon fiber , and vacuume bagged . Hey , when we were building Fountains we took production boats out of there program considering every boat was a 1- off custom build , and to put it straight............ Reggie really never had a clue on how to build a composite boat untill we started building then at Douglas Marine .
 
Reggie didn't have to know as long as you did. Steve Jobs didn't know how to build computers either. But they both knew how to find people that could.
 
Even today I think I would only have Skater lay up the boat if I were going after a speed record.

I can't think of any other layup shops I'd trust to that extent.
