1999 42 Lightning
 

If anyone is looking to go to a bigger boat I have mine listed but the ad is outdated as it is from last year.
http://www.offshoreonlyclassifieds.c...o21787-en.html
Motors are new Ron Potter 650's, the pic is of the old ones. Bottom was done over the winter too. I am interested in any reasonable offer but also interested in taking trades, cars, bikes and snowmobiles. Not sure what is next yet but the kids are getting older and if this summer is an indication of next then I can't see me using the boat to much.

Thanks for the consideration.

Here are the motors. If anyone wants more detail on the build I have all the pics from ground up that Ron sent me throuhgout the process.
Thanks again;

I've seen it 2 days ago in Double R 's web site...I think... although I may have seen it here on oso... What are you asking for? I start to look for a 38-42 newer than what I have. But I may be wrong cause I've never seen a 42 Fountain's cabin, I'm effraid they are much smaller than my 35-7 formula... How many can sleep in there?

The market is weird as we all know so I haven't put an asking price, just bring offers, I seen 98-00 with smaller power and bigger power sell for 98k-140k........mine is probably in the 110-115k range.
The cabin will probably have less headroom than your Formula but obviously more lenght. The cabin is unique on mine because it has a 47 gallery area rather than the normal 42, corion countertop, under counter fridge etc.
My wife, 15 year old daughter, 10 year old son and I all sleep on the boat, I have never used the head but the pump etc are all new too.
Yes you saw this boat at double r, they did all the work and it stays there during the week.

Take care;

What are your speeds with the 650's? And what drive set up do you have?

They are bravo xr's.
The motors peak at 5400 rpm I believe......I am running 5 blade hydromotive 29's and only get a hair over 5000 rpm.
With all my gear and fair amount of fuel I can consistantly hit 84-86mph.
I am sure there is a lot more to go. The original owner is a friend and with 4 blades ran 93mph........Raymond at double r ran it at the start of the season with the 5 blades and no fuel just at 90mph.
My guess is a worry about drives, I know people drive differently etc etc but I have never blown a drive in two years on the boat.
Hope that helps

Just curious if you happen to know your x dimension? Sorry for all the questions, that is a nice boat of yours. Im looking to pull motors over the winter and looking at similar set up.
Thanks

I don't know what the x dem is.........sorry and good luck with your upgrade. Feel free to ask all the questions you want.
Take care;
