Default 38 Fever Vs 36 Outlaw

I am looking to step to a 38 Fever (1995) and was wondering what is it over all length? Is it comparable to the 36 outlaw (2000)?

I know the fountain crushes the Bajahahaha in every other aspect.

Reason I am asking is that my little bro just went out and bought a 36 outlaw and I just can not be out done.

Fevers rule. Very solid in the rough. length overall i believe is 38 foot unless someone on here knows different. You can't kill a 38 Fever....It is that simple. I drove other boats before including a 38 fastech. It felt like the windshield was going to blow out of it in a two foot chop. Gave the girlfriend a headache from the pounding so bad she said go back and get the Fever...NOW! It is a very solid boat and has very nimble handeling almost sportscar like. My 2c.

Mine could be for sale to the right buyer as well.

Over all length will be about the same. 36 Outlaw is 36 feet without the swim platform, 38 Fountain is 38 with the platform. Would guess the Fountain will be 8 - 10 mph faster with the same power.

I don't think so. I think he had paint on the windscreen and not sure about the amps mounted in the head area

I think 36.5 feet of the boat sits in the water. I own a 94 38 Fever and i bought a 2000 Eagle trailer the a 36 outlaw came on and it fits perfectly, So what does the tell ya...............

I have always liked the look of the Outlaw . . .then I crawled around one and did not care for the rigging one bit. So, I bought a 38 Fever. They are so much easier to work on, the cockpit is nearly as big (and much bigger than a Lightning) and- as said earlier, it is a Fountain. My boat is stepped and in rides like a tank. I know the Baja is a solid ride but I don't believe it will hold up like the Reggie's boats do. I am sold on Fountain and the Fever. So there!!!
