Default No new 32, but a new 33

That's the scoop I was told at the boat show.
The new rumored 32 was scraped, in favor of a 33.

It will be the same as the 35 Lightining, but in a side by side config with 496's. By doing so, the transom won't have the low sitting look as the 32 are known for. Cause we all know how every 32 has sunk. The cabin is the exact same as the 35 (which is awesome with the complete update), cockpit (also the new update) will be 1' larger behind the bolster seats than the 35, which will be nice. The difference in length comes from the engine compartment. The 35 has the staggered setup, the 33 will be traditional side by side. The 33 with the 496's will be the 'entry' level pricing as I was told and still clear 80 no problem.
Didn't get no pricing.

Sweet! Thanks for the update..I cant wait to see some pics. One foot can add alot of space in a cockpit. Hopefully these won't all sink.

I thought something was up after I kept noticing there wasn't any information on the new model on the Fountain site.

Welcome to the board. Enjoy your boat the way it is. Once you start changing things on it, it'll be a never ending battle with upgrades. You'll have so much money invested into it that you could've bought a bigger boat with more power if you count the money you're gonna spend making all your changes.

If you want more speed, which most people do, then look for another boat with the power already in it that you'll be happy with. Remember that 90% of money put into these boat, is money that you'll never get back when you decide to sell it. Enjoy it the way it is for a year or 2, then start looking for the boat with the power that you want. You'll be way more money ahead of the game.
