Newbie here!
 
Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I'm a newbie here on OSO. I found out about this site from the Sunsation site. I almost bought a Sunsation and then decided on a Fountain.

I got a beatiful 94 29' Fever w/twin 502 Mags, very well maintained and in immaculent shape. The boat handles great. Although this is my first Fountain, not my first powerboat. I had a 29' Scarab and a 272 Baja before that and I gotta say this boat crushes those other 2 by ALOT, in everyway shape and form.

Again just saying hi, lots of good info on this site!

Well I gotta be honest with you guys, I haven't really been able to guage that yet. I've had a full tank of gas and a boat full of passengers since I got it!! :rolleyes: On top of that, I haven't figured out how to use my damn GPS yet and I don't think the factory speedo is working right !! :eek: I plan on getting the GPS on her this weekend and I'll let you guys know what she runs out at!! :D

great colors! looks good. I'll say 82-83. Call Fountain and see if they have the test report from new.

Fountain has won more races than all other builders combined.

Enough Said.

Hmmm I don't recall saying that.........I did say it handles better than my 29' Scarab I had and also my 272 I had but I didn't say anything about a Sunsation. However I can tell you that I have driven both a 288 and a 32 SS and I would have to say it most definitely handles better than the 288 and it's not as squirrely as the 32.........that's my personal opinion!
