A speed boat champion at an early age, million-dollar insurance salesman when a million was real money... Then came the Fountain Powerboat. Here's Reggie chugging up the Pamlico River near Washington, NC pushed by the twin big-block Chevys. It was a couple of years before he built the triple-engine versions. We're at 70+ mph here. The boats are still manufactured in Chocowinity.
