47 Outerlimits
I am getting ready to trade my 2000 42 Sonic in on 98 47 OL it has 3 700's and XR drives look's brand new. I just want to know if anybody has any dirt on that size and year 47 OL, I haven't been able to find any and feel that OL is in the top 3 builders out there, but it seems that this is the place to ask.
P.S. I voted for Bush and will again.

Everybody I know lost their a$$ in the stock market 100's of thousand's they all gave me **** when I bought my 42 instead of stocks. I will loose about 18k in 3 year's on my boat and it was all fun. I don't think they had to much fun watching the stock's go away.

I've seen a 47 with triples and it looks awesome. The only issue I've heard of is that the center drive suffers more abuse than the outside drives and has a tendency to fail more often. So, I'd check the drives, particularly the center one carefully. Of course, the information is second hand, so take it for its worth...free advice.

Lapse, Interested in a 47 Fountain? You know the quality is there and it rides and handles very well. With big power the boat would be *****in'! If you want to know more, let me know.
