And I'll take that sweet ride anyday over an OL which is a maintanance pig and nothing like as much fun to drive. imho. Now if you where talking Apache... Well that's a whole different thing :evilb: |

Thanks for all the kind remarks, other than the rigging in the engine compartment, I am really happy with my Fountain. No joke, looking back on it, I should have purchased the hull and deck from Fountain and let Supercat rig it. Not happy with the detail, for a few extra bucks they could really dress up the engine compartment. Not picking on Fountain as I have owned several of them but they need to step it up a notch or two on rigging and quality control The Cigs have it down, Donzi has come a long way. Needless to say I am very happy with my Fountain. Retail price of my boat is around 500K |

its a lot of $ to spend and not be happy with detail

Take my twelve foot Seveylor with 1/2 horsepower electric trolling motor, put it in a cat 5 hurricane, and it is faster than an Outer Limits or a Fountain! Electric power and inflatables rules!!!! Humm, could be true in other areas too!

I couldn't afford a new OL or a new Fountain but it's obvious when you look at both that the rigging an build quality are drastically different between the two.
I was at the AC boat show last winter and looked at a brand new 47 Fountain, the glass work in bildge looked like it should have been called a resin bucket, and I'm the one with an Apache.. :D I've also been in both boats in rough water, the OL hands down handles better and feels more "comfortable" than the Fountain. |
