My cabin carpet is fresh as a daisy, as was the carpet in the last one.

Don't see that complaint pop up on the Fountains, though I do believe you could break anything if you put your mind to it. The wet cabin most often, from what I see, results from sitting with the bow down. Might do your Fountain 101 research before you play expert.

You might also dig into why Brunswick closed Baja. Not profitable for them at all, high warranty costs, in some cases resulting in buy backs and replacement boats. Two boats for the price of one apparently does nothing for the bottom line. What about those liner "issues" ??? How about the deal a couple years back when Baja was to build the Pachanga for Sea Ray to market? Dropped due to build quality not up to Sea Ray standards? Who is fixing warranty problems on Baja's now? Sea Ray?
