I am very familiar with the '94 35'. It was owned by a friend on LOTO before he sold it to someone in California. It was originally equipped with 465s. So, there has been a few things done. It was a very well kept boat, but it has been gone from the Lake for a number of years now. Custom paint job from the factory.

I'd jump on the all white with the 525 SC's! Great motors, stock Merc, and a nice power level in that hull. The all white gives you the option of anything you want if you opt for some graphics.

@ maui9 That's sweeet! Did you use Imron or Sikkens? Fountain actually repainted quite a few of the ICBM decks under warranty back then. Repainted isn't really correct. They painted over the faded red gel coat as a warranty fix. I believe #2 lowers will fit right on those TRS's for an extra few mph's if desired. Are your lowers
nose coned? I would guess they are. Nice job though. A great boat re-done. You should really put a pic of it in the water if you want to sell it!

@ KN I would say the 525 SC's are due to be freshened up....see your best mechanic for advice there. But the all white boat is a statement in itself and "ageless" because of the lack of graphics. Or a clean slate, whichever you, the buyer, prefers.
The California boat I would want to know who did the work on the motors, but I'd still be wary. The boat sure looks nice though.
The Reggie Fountain Signature boat looks just like one I sold that year except it had white (painted) deck rails instead of stainless steel like the one for sale. It's a cool looking Fountain too if you're good with hot pink/ fuschia accents against the white, gray, and black. there was nothing really different performance wise with the Signatures, just a graphics package. I'd like to know the hull ID number of that boat if you can come up with it. Imco steering would not have been factory, would have been Latham or Mayfair, so I don't know what that is about. Headers would have been other than what he has, too. Looks like he spent some money though, on the breathing. Hard to tell.
