Re: Shogren, got a serious question for you.
FeverMike,
I'm about the same size as you (I'm 6'4") and there's a huge difference in leg room between the Lighting and Ex. I test drove a 35 Ex and a 35 Lighting this past July and I can sit down in the Lighting and not have my legs pinned up against the helm. If I go up to a 35 it will be a Lighting.
PS
My kids really like your Avitar. They ask if those are sun glasses and why does that dog have them on?... I tell them that the dog is really really fast and his eye's start to tear up with out them.

I could not even sit or hardly stand behind the helm of the 35 EX I was in at my dealer. I was really bummed too! My problem is I only have 1 leg to stand on since my entire left leg is a prosthetic leg. I need to be sure I am comfortable, safe and secure behind the helm. I would like to be able to sort of stand lean back and wedge myslef into the bolster and use the bolster electric seat bottom to catch my azz in the rough water.
Actually the 42 Poker Run would be the perfect boat I think but I will be going the wrong way in size and money!

Sea Ray dealers take much better care of their customers who may move location to location. Anything goes wrong with a Sea Ray and any dealer will honor the warranty and their customer satisfaction is outstanding as a result. Infact "seamless".
I do know that many offshore builders want major repairs done inhouse. Usually I hear Fountain will do the work at their facility if you can deliver the boat to them.

Re: Shogren, got a serious question for you.
Interesting Thread:
I just thought I'd let everyone know that American Performance Marine is the Fountain Dealer in Annapolis, MD on the Chesapeake Bay. We work on everyone's boat. Retail / warranty / whatever. We do everything we can to get your boat back to you quickly.
Regarding Fountain sales: We became the 7th Largest Dealer after <18 months with Fountain Powerboats. We're not number one but with ~50 Fountain Dealers out there... that ain't too bad.
Let us know if there is something we can do for you
