Default New to me 2001 fountain f1 factory racer

Today I bought a 2001 29 f1 last registration was from New Jersey the race numbers I think were 505 it is a stand up boat but the bolsters are missing does anyone have an interior pic of how this boat looked like with the original bolsters in it they were mounted in the center of the boat
Any known history would be great to hear about

I'm pretty sure a past owner of that boat is a member on here. He does not live far, but I can't remember what his screen name is. Give me a day or two.

Congrats on the boat. I had a verbal deal on this boat with Bob up in NJ, i wired my dad money who lives in NY as well, to drive down and pick it up with my mechanic friend, and the day they planned to leave Bob told us he would not put the boat in the water for a sea trial do to "registration". Im curious how this boat runs for you...

6 yrs ago i owned the twin to that boat, 2001 F1 29' raced by Gino Marrone. It was sent to fountain and converted to a sit down. It was an awesome boat. Send me an email and i will send you pics of it.

a friend of mine looked at that boat earlier this year. i would pressure check the exhaust before i ran the boat. it was a salt water boat and has been sitting for a long time. dont want to do damage to your engine!!

Boomer the boat needs work before it sees water that is why it didn't get put in the water for you
Bullet thanks for the heads up
Bus yes eBay boat spend 3 hours washing it now it looks just dirty boat hasn't run in 4 years I pumped the old gas out of it today and fired right up
