The
Coastal Advantage
Fountain Powerboats began
in what was once a tobacco
field in the North Carolina
backwater region. Today,
our 66-acre site includes
a 250,000 square foot
facility under roof and
a modern marina. Our premier
boat manufacturing facility
is located near the coast
for a good reason: North
Carolina's sounds, rivers
and the Atlantic Ocean
provide the perfect arena
for us to test each and
every boat we design and
manufacture.
Ironically, many boat
manufacturers are completely
landlocked and use test
tanks. However, a Fountain
powerboat never meets
a test tank. Instead,
each boat becomes well-acquainted
with the Pamlico River.
Every boat built in our
ISO 9001:2000 state-of-the-art
manufacturing facility
is thoroughly water-tested
in "actual-use"
conditions prior to delivery.
Our Laboratory
Our coastal location guarantees
ultimate quality because
we have all the components
for the ideal research
and development laboratory.
R&D is a critical
process at Fountain, and
our engineers and test
drivers are on the water
365 days a year. Many
boat builders rely solely
on computers to test new
designs, but Fountain
engineers know that computers
cannot always accurately
reconstruct the unpredictable
movement of water and
waves. The best boats
are born only by combining
a computer's intuition
with hard core reality.
The results are clear:
superior technology which
gives you the fastest,
smoothest, safest, and
best handling boats that
money can buy.
