Re: 38 Fountain with 700's
 

I love those speeds in the 38..however....the cockpit is so small. There is a pic of the shogren 38 along side of downtowns42 and the 38 look tiny. But holy crap....if you would have told me 2 years ago that these boats were going to be running these speeds I would have told you tha you were on the crack!!!! I love it!!!! My friend had a 42 in 96 and it had trip merc 600's and that boat was bad ass for the day. 100 to 104 on a good day. In 96 we passed everything on the water with the excption of the gas pumps.

look at post 3 pic 2, trim indicators are at 6

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's
 

Wonder how much faster it ran with the 6's over the NXT's on back?

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's
 

Thats the thing, Fountains are so small for their size except for the 42 and the 47. You cant compare the size of this 38 Fountain to Joe's 39 Cig. You could fit the Fnt inside the Cig. Even by it being a tiny boat, those speeds are great for only having twin 700's. Those Fountain hulls really perform well. The race style bow rail doesnt look good at all to me. Get rid of them all together.

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's
 

yeah but 30mph faster. That's haulin the mail with 700's. 42 with 600's is 93 ish, curious where you 'd be with 700's in 42. 2000 42 Pair a dice did 117 and 900SC's pleasure boat.

You think that one was Fast the newest one with CUSTOM BLUE PAINT RAN 116.2 MPH the NorthStar GPS with Smart Craft integration is great!!!!!!

If you are tired of those standard Fountains Come see www.fountaindealer.com we build them all Different than are competitors any one can sell them for cost but we make them one of a kind and give you all the money for your trade.

Look the 6 Drives did no add any speed but its 100% safer and you Don't Loose Water Pressure. I was in both boats when they ran and they both had lots of fuel and over 1000lbs People You can not ask for a better feel than 116+ in a V with a full Year Warranty and Bullet PROOF 6 Drives DRIVES.

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's
 

The 42 we have in stock with 700's ran about 108mph with NXT Fountain picked it up and are putting 6 drives on it now so who knows what it will do now.

It was a blast 107.8 MPH + Full Fuel + Temp 100+ and 5 big guys :evilb:

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's

Thanks again for the ride in the white 38 Stealth Fountaindealer. Here's a pic of my doggy, he had a blast :doggy:

Re: 38 Fountain with 700's
 

We worked with Merc Racing today trying some new tricks on the 42 with 700's. We ran out of daylight so we will be testing in Lake MI tomorrow. Unfortunately we had to break some ice in the harbor today to get the boats out that we tested with Merc. We will have one of them at the Chicago Show in Jan.
