New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I thought it might be fun to re-run this poll to see what has changed. Who upgraded, who left Fountain :eek: , what the current mix is. Always thought it was a cool poll, let's freshen it up!

Now if I don't screw it up.... Here goes. :rolleyes:

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I am about to make a purchase, so I'll vote in a few days.... :D

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Cool!!! I'm the first vote!! 35 EX

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

27' in last poll, 38' in the new one. will be interesting to see the changes (if any).

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

27 last time, 32 this time. next time will be in another owners forum

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

29 love the boat maybe next year bigger

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

27 old poll now have 35.1997 27 still for sale 95 hrs. on hull 6 hrs. on new HP 500.

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

29 and a 38 last time, down to just the 38 now.

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Very cool, we are moving up! I would bet the 35 or 42 ends up being the most (Executioners). Where are you going US1 Fountain?? :(

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I wished I would have looked more seriously for a Cig Cafe when looking for the 32. I stayed with the Fountain line because of my garage door height. Love the Fountains, just ready for a little more freeboard and cabin space.

It's still a couple yrs away though. Not ready to take the big hit just yet.

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Cig's are nice boats... Good resale. Of course I am sure my next boat will be my last so who cares :rolleyes: . At least that's what I tell my wife, as she rolls her eyes at me. I think I am going to pull the trigger on a 38. Tomarrow is d-day on that point. Then I can vote. :drink: I bought a 29 in 04, but it just doesn't have enough length for what I want to do. Looked at a beautiful Gladiator but decided against it....

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Right on Steve, go for it.
We bought our 29's at the same time.

I'm still happy with mine, 2004 HP525, 120 hours.

If I could swing it & keep the kids in new shoes, I'd get the 38.

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Had a 35 ex the first time I voted. We now have a 38 Fever. Being on Lake Cumberland it gets pretty sloppy choppy on the weekends. There's a world of difference in the way the 38 handles the chop vs the 35.

About the only day that I wish I had a bigger boat is during the Poker Run. But I like the nimbleness of the 38 vs the 42 and I don't think I would trade that nimbleness for the one day a year that I could use the extra 3 feet. If I were on the Great Lakes or Ocean then I would probably go with a 42.

Someday, if things go well, I would like to have both my 38 and a dedicated 100+ mph Poker Run boat. And at this point I doubt if the poker run boat would be a Fountain :eek:

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I have a 27 also. I just don't understand how people put so few hours on thier boats. I got my motor redone this summer, got it back mid-august. I've been out of town for work every week but 2 since then. I've already got over 55 hours on the new motor... (not knocking you or anything it's just surprising how many boats i see with 100 hours or so on them).

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Still in our 35..... hah "still" we dreamed for to many years to say still :drink:

Sleeper Dave, I agree. Took delivery Memorial weekend 2004 and we now have 124 hours.... lots of oil/drive fluid changes and alot of gas later STILL LOVIN IT !!!!!!

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Still have my early 29 twin. Wouldn't trade it for anything else and I've had my opportunities. Just and I mean JUST finished a major re-rig. New power (675hp naturally asp.) Konrad drives, new interior and panel.

Had her out every day this week and I plan on getting over 100 more hours on her before the winter lay-up. We'll be on the Bay this weekend for Fleet Week.

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Was 35' for 7yrs....still here

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

How's this guys?? Was a few faster, but then we reset the gps speedo and ran with different props - which got us here.... So this was not the best but.... This will be the new 38 for me.... Hoping for 108.... :D

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

$103 is smoking!! Give us some details on that bad boy.

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I will in a day or so..... Promise!!

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Hey Steve,

If you do this deal, what are you gonna do with all your time?

What are you gonna shop for next ?????

and most importantly....

What are we gonna talk about ????????? LOL

I know, We'll just have to eat, drink and have fun !!!!!!

Seriously, I think this deal makes sense....

Good Luck.....

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

27 then and a 27 now, love the boat but will eventually get bigger. Maybe next year..... :rolleyes:

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

All my time? - Easy, plan a name and how to go faster.

I will be shopping for a truck to pull the boat.

We will eat, drink and have fun of course!! Who else would we do that with.... G and E too!!...

I think it makes sense too, I just need to unplug a few other potential deals.... Wish I could buy them all.... Talk soon... What a sleeper this boat is!

Steve

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Hey Andrew Realtor,

I would be happy to give another Fountain brother a testimonial, but I can't recall your boat....

I gave up drinking last week and everything prior to 10/7/05
is just a haze !!!!!!

Please refresh my memory...

What kind of speed are you getting out of those 454's????

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

Don't worry Andrew Realtor, Dragon Fire has has kids all over that he can't remember! :eek: :evilb: Kidding aside, I should know you as well. Can you post a picture of your ride??

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I'm the lone fish boat in the poll, I just traded my 38 lighting on this 38te,I love it its not as fast but its much larger boat,it runs 67mph it feels like a battleship when running down the bay,I Looove it!!

Re: New - Which Fountain do you own?
 

I might even buy a fishing rod.
