Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
I was in lake erie a few weeks ago with my 47 lightning, I was on the north side headed SSE with the wind comming from the S @ 19Knots. Roughest stuff I ran in yet. I am not a good judge wave of height but they were big. I was running with drives tucked in and almost full tabs @ 28 MPH. Blasted through each wave for 10 miles. Got spray on us with every wave. I decided to pick up the speed I ended up around 60MPH it was smoother and only an ocassional pound but it handled it very well. I backed down as I could not see anything through the windshield or my glasses and I got a little scared as I was the only boat out there. I turned back and went back to detroit. Just too rough for me. O the way I seen a big cruiser that his dingy was nocked off his boat he was tying a rope to it to tow back. It was rough. I was surprised he the 47 split the waves so well.

Hmmmmm, so if we're talking race boats, I'd bet Fountain's not the only manufacturer with a race boat that does over hundred with 525's. It's hard to figure out what he's saying most of the time anyways, I think he watched one to many info-mercials about Reggie's boats. Reggie's boats are fast, no doubt about it, but I think Slandrew has psycho crush on Reggie.......... :rolleyes: Can you imagine the a$$ sucking that would happen if those two we're actually in the same room with each other? Slandrew: Reggie your the best, your so cool, I love your hair, the gold chain, the checkered outfit, I wish I could be like you.............. Reggie: Thanks Slandrew, now get on your knees and say bye bye *****-cat.:eek: Slandrew:No problem Reggie, I'll take the beak everytime. |
