I was told when I 1st got into high performance boats, the common denominator of every person who owns one and is able to drive it, wants it 1st to be faster than it is, and I have learned that is true. So even if the boats might be a little tight, the fact that it is a 100 MPH plus boat fit the bill completely.
Congrats on your new boat!!! I saw the 35 at the NYC boat show today. Not to burst anyones bubble but it's just another Fountain looks wise. The handling and hull is where the money went. It was priced at $296,000. The cockpit didnt seem smaller and the bow was just as short, so I dont know where they got the room for the staggers.

the stags came from the cockpit being moved forward

It didn't seem the bow was that much shorter.

When talked with Reggie about the 35 he said that they moved the cockpit up a little and he said the boat still looks great, and it does. The changes, staggered engines, Sportmaster Shorties, and Herrings props changed the hydrodynamics and gave it more speed. He said the interior is the same as the 38. What props did it have? I thought it was supposed to come with 5 blade herrings. My friend said it had 6 blade herrings?
