Default MTIs BUILT AT FOUNTAIN

Does anyone know any facts about the 42' SNAKE EYES. I have a customer that looking at this boat and Fast Boats has it's listing. What is with the cockpit layout, it looks like it belongs in a vee bottom. The hull looks heavy and lots of drag. Stating new #6 and Gary Taylor 1200.

If he is looking for a nice boat for him and seven or so friends to comfortably cruise the lake at 130 plus that boat will be awesome. They have built numerous boats with that layout. If he likes that boat he should really look at Rare Breed. I heard the deal fell through and it is still for sale at Pier57.

I think Rare Breed is one of the most beautiful boats MTI has built. I love that cockpit, especially the huge cabin doors.

Mark, a friend of mine spent some time looking at it, he said the details in the paint was killer.

By the way this is Rob from Ohio that bought the Fountain and the motors (pink and teal) that had been sitting at your shop.

We've had the boat here for a couple of months.This is one of the nicest MTI pleasures out there.The paint and interior are perfect.The engine's are fresh and the surface drives are bullet-proof. We are ready to make someone a hell of a deal on this boat. Let me know if I can help in any way.

I have been all over and ridden in Rare Breed and seeing pictures DO NOT do it justice. It is a beautiful, functional boat. At lease as functional as a 130+mph cat can be.

Rare Breed is not a fountain built hull, I believe the Snake eyes boat is.
