Default New Boat

Purchased a new to me boat on Monday, I picked up a 1995 27ft Fountain Fever with a 525sc. This is my first fountain, previously had an 88 Baja 240 sport (The outlaw hull), and a 92 24ft Outlaw. Going through the boat currently to work out the small issues I found, just cause I am anal and EVERYTHING has to work as its suppose to lol. Really looking forward to getting it out this weekend to see what she has. I know this thread is useless without pics, so here you go lol.

That has to be a pretty rare set-up with the single 525 SC, is it all original?

Yes it came with this power originally. Before I bought it I called fountain with the HIN to have them send me the performance sheet on it when it was produced and tested, and it has the 525sc listed. Guy I bought it from said the original owner special ordered with the 525sc. Which checked out according to the performance sheet. Boat has only 586 hours on it, and the motor and blower were rebuilt about 130 hours ago.

No, this was originally a Chicago boat, then it went to Ohio, and then came here to the Chesapeake Bay the beginning of this season so was a fresh water boat its entire life.
