Great numbers for a 42, what props are you spinning? Our 38/700 boat is running 6 blade Herrings. Saw Wyatt Fountain at the Jammin on the James poker run with a 42/700 boat that had 5 blade Merc props. Wyatts 42 was very fast also.

I am running 6 blade Herring's from the factory. There are five other Fountains on our lake with 700's - four 42's and one 38. All but one of the 42's have five blades. Mine is a 2007 with the old cabin, where all the rest have the new cabin. Supposedly the old cabin is ~700lbs lighter than the new cabin interior. The tv-berth is also WAY bigger and we do a lot of overnights aboard, so that's nice.

And the old interior is also much more "playboy" with the all white leather !!!!!!!!!!!

They are for sure, but they are lighter and much bigger inside. Luckily I have a friend in the business who is going to update the counter top with a nice piece of Corian much like the 35 Lightnings were from 2004-2005.

just goes to show ya that a ventilated hull works like a charm!! that'll be my next adventure!!! once i win the lotto that is... lol

Definetely, we have gone 110 on the rev limiters and 106 with topped off tanks, four people, coolers, etc in the middle of summer. There is probably another 4-5mph on the table, but I would rather have the accelleration. It pulls hard enough through the midrange that the digital speedo jumps by 5-7mph at a time.

Way cool!!!

Nice #'s
