Questions about a 29
Hi folks, I'm looking to pick up a used 29 and like the idea of the twin big blocks. Why aren't they offered new that way any more? Did they have problems ? And are there any common problems on these boats I should look for? Thanks for any help.

Fountain Problems???
None that I know of ...Two things that might be ,,,(1) power to weight ratio the two engins are a weight issue in a smaller hull but do look and sound Awsome!
(2)fuel comsumpton other than that no issues that I have heard of. Do know of a few local 29s for sale in Nh
1 has twins and is (or Was ) at channel marine in laconia
Nh and the others were at a few other marinas on the lake.. I will look them up If you want..
Hope this helps.

steamfitter, I had a 29 with twin 454 blower motors. the boat was fast and a hand full at w.o.t. The only problem I found with the 29 with twins is that the weight of the motors made the boat set so low ,that the exhaust was to close to the water. I installed high risers to eliminate reversion. I also took the silent choise system off and the Y- pipes to lift the transom. But all in all that 29 was a lot of fun.

I just sold my 29 with twin 502 EFI's for 36,000. to give you a idea on price. But that boat would shoot out of the water and stand up!!! I completely stood it up twice, that was enough for me. I would look at a 32

Bob,
It was Trent that fixed me up a yr ago with my current boat with a separate dealership. Sometimes I don't know whether to kiss him or punch him.
Trent is a great guy. He'll work at selling it.
