Default Is Fountain back???

I read an article that a dealer order a 38' performance boat from them for stock...I know its been a while since they have built a performance boat, but I am definitely interested to see how it comes out. Best of luck to both parties involved. It would be great for the industry to see the brand come back to life, whether you like them or not

Fountain never went away per say.. yes they had a couple of reorganizations corp wise but at any point and time since reggie departed, anyone could have called them and ordered a boat.. Hopefully they build a strong dealer network again and the orders start rolling in

How long's it been? Not 1 person has wanted a new Fountain even though they've been building them?

There is a 38 with quads I believe that r3 was posting on FB approx a month ago that is new and before that I can verify the black SVL race boat came out of the restructured Fountain.....

86 boats for sale in classified section, it would be great to see some new Fountains on the water. Hopefully they can get them moving with dealer help. It seems to be working for performance boat center they have lots for sold signs on there new Cigs listed.

They might even finish the newly updated 29' that was promised for Fort Lauderdale boat show and then subsequently rumored for the Miami boat show. (It never made either)

As much as anyone, I'd like to see a new sports boat come from Fountain but I'd also like to go to an Elvis concert with Don Aronow.

Oops! Guess I should have clicked the link from Drake22.250 before quoting from my wish list!

Good to see someone with the ambition to put some favorite sports boats back on the map. They also have their sights on the sister company Baja.

Full credit to Edward Champion and Big Thunder Marine, good luck guys.

I'm surprised no one has built a 42. Still a very fast desirable boat.
