Wow! I'm jealous as he!!. I shopped and shopped, and then shopped some more over the last 6 months for a Fountain. I paid 3k more than you for a 98 with brand new merc 502s. Kudos to you, that's one badass ride! I looked and looked for a 35 in the uder 40k price range, and the only one I found was a 96 in KY with 502s. Please tell me it's a saltwater boat, just to alleviate my second guessing...

MAN! Congratz on the sweet deal! I didn't see it mentioned but how many hours on the hull/motors and drives? What was the asking price?
Wife and I have been looking at everything from Fountains to Donzi's to older CIGS...just depends on where we land I guess but think someone mentioned it listed in the 60's (?) man, that's a 50% discount....I was in the business for a lot of years and I'm not even that good....I'm taking you with us when we sell ours and pull the trigger on new!
Congratz again!
