The documentary is finished, and it's currently being edited down so it can air on TV in a one-hour format (so needs to be in 40-min range). And yes the production company did work with Fountain Powerboats—it has worked with many companies and organizations in the industry from Mercury to Sunsation to APBA Offshore.

Ben Kramer was the most exciting with his Apache Powerboat company and the way he ran his race boats. When he got busted for being a drug kingpin, that was a let down, but it all started to make sense. He was laundering cash and Apache was his washing machine. When he was implicated in hiring a hit man to kill Don Aronow, that made no sense. And is damn unforgivable. Murderer is somewhat past Bad Boy, to my way of thinking.

Again say what you will, jealousy will accomplish nothing. The fountain still reigns supreme in handling and straight line speed for a vhull.
ive never seen any blogs about someone buying an old fountain race boat why is that?
