Five, 27, 32, 35, 38/600's and a 38/700's. Our 38/700's is my favorite by far.

Four ... a 96 27 Fever with carbed HP500, a 2000 29 Fever with 500 EFI, a 2000 35 Lightning twin step with 500 EFI's and a 2002 29 fever with a 575 SCi. We had a 2002 Formula 292 Fastec with 6.2's between one of them, too - it was heavy and slow, comparitively speaking, although it did have 13 cupholders (I counted them) compared to the -0- in the cockpit of our 2000 29 Fever. The 35 twin step was hands down the nicest of all of them, but my wife and I trailer our boat everywhere we go, and found that trailering that thing all of the time was not "fun" and a lot of ramps couldn't accomodate parking a truck/trailer of that length. Not what I would really call a good trailer boat. The 29's worked best for us, easy to trailer, plenty of room for day boating, and they always ran great! (My favorite is still the 35, though! )

My 2000 single step Lightning 35' with twin HP500EFI's is my first Fountain, I love it. I had a Spectra 32' prior to the Fountain, there is no comparison, the Fountain does everything better. The next boat will be a Fountain also, although not sure when that will be.
