I just switched to a Fountain having driven right hand throttles for 20 years in a variety of boats. I was worried about the switch but after about 10min. it was all good. No problems whatsoever!

Another vote that you won't think twice.
Nice to manage the tabs, trim, and throttle all with the left hand while a firm right hand stays on the wheel.
I go back and forth between my Fountain & my Grady every weekend and don't think twice about throttle position left vs. right.

I agree. I bought my first Fountain two weeks ago, and had the same worries. I have gotten used to it, but i wouldnt suggest going into rough water right away. I am right dom as well, and your reaction time is a little different. You will want to chop the throttles faster than you should. At least i did anyway.
