Well the boat was sold to us as a 1999 model. I did some research on here last night and found out where the other vin#s are at so I am going to look today at them and see if they match the vin on the back of the boat.
However at this point I do t think I really can do anything about it from who we bought it from. If confirmed it is a 89 model I will be giving the previous owner a call!!

The drives are Bravo1's. the last 4 numbers of the HID# are
A899 and from what I searched it means it was built on Janury 8th, 1999.
I called fountain and left a message. Hopefully they call back and hopefully it was a special order 99 modellike someone else mentioned was a option in 99.

Post pic of the numbers, there's no way its a 99, is so, someone completely messed with it to make it look old, I doubt that, especially if ALL 99's had step in the hull, I don't know Fountains enough to know that part..

I posted a question in the fountain section asking about this situation and someone chimed in and said that the 1999 brochure had a special order option for no step in the hull. I hope this is what it is. I hope to get in contact with flu gain tomorrow and they can run the #'s and tell me for sure.
