Yep, That's how how I knew I want a Fountain. Some buddies bought a '95 27' and the 1st time I saw it, I knew that's it. Had a Pachanga at the time and thought that was a go fast. Had no idea what kind of boat it was, but I wanted one.

I get the sinking comment once in a while when I put put through our cove to tie up, by the college kids that rent pontoons for the day. Have considered keeping a bucket of water next to my seat and the next time I hear that, use a Dixie cup and start bailing from the bucket.

Friend of mine is a die hard Formula guy, however his wife loves the look of a Fountain in the water. Her take on it is that it just has that low slung slutty look, gotta love that look!

My speedy ride:
I had a 97 32 fever and people would see it sitting in the water as they came over the bridge. Several people actually pulled in the driveway to tell me that it was sinking.

Will those new style cabin doors (in picture above) fit a 93? Is it even a new, different style? I also am interested in the newer style side vents on the 32"s from the style thats on my 93....Has anyone changed these or made custom vents to replace? Sorry i dont have a pic to point out & show what im talking about.

Are yours just the tinted vs white? Around '95ish the white out package was an option, then eventually became standard, if I'm not mistaken. I wasn't aware they are of a different design.

The vents on the newer 32' are part the hull deck, (or actually glassed into the deck after it is pulled from the mold) not a bolt in item.

That's funny. I have a few friends with 32's and break their chops by asking them if their boat is sinking when people are around.

ya they are the tinted... the door just looked different not just it being white, i plan on getting white or possibly painting what i have white because i want the white to match & not be a different shade from the hull like most that i see... i didnt think the side vents were interchangable, but it was worth asking, i really need to find somethin custom to put on or replace my side vents they just look so cheap
