Purchasing Fountain Powerboats
Hustler is currently in negotiations to purchase Fountain powerboats and all its assets. As of Oct. 5th, Fountain powerboats will go up for auction and no longer be doing business. Hustler Powerboats will move its operations to NC and re-build the Fountain and Baja Line to full capacity over the next 4 years and keep the Fountain Legacy intact as we feel it is a big part of Performance boat history and do not want to see it die off. We are dedicated to re-strengthening both Fountain and Baja, keeping the same look and feel with improved quality and workmanship. Over these last couple years, Hustler has been blessed with sales and is running strong and would like to give back to the boating community by saving these companies from being auctioned off piece by piece.
If you have any question please feel free to email me at john@hustlerpowerboats.com

Glad to hear the good news.. I was waiting for the japs to take it over and install hondas or yammazuki's on em. Hustler builds some tough boats, and knows the bus. Must have some deep pockets to do this in the current economic downturn...American Mfg. must survive for us to have strong boat sales again... Best of luck to All at hustler with this venture... Working Americans building American products= A strong economy.

Will the Hustler lineup be built in NC also??? I guess the Fiores (Outerlimits) will have a run for their money with Hustler, Fountain, and Baja being under the same ownership.

A good thing to hear in this bad economy, Hopefully Reggie stays in the picture, had the pleasure of speaking to him a 3 years ago at the NY Boat Show, great guy and wealth of knowledge.
