Default 42 Fountain class leader at LOTO...

It looks like Mark (Bullhead), one of the Fountain section regulars, who has a beautifully painted 42 Lightning may have won his class at the LOTO shoot out. He held off some tough competition in his class with a 38' Donzi w/ 700's that ran 106mph and a 39 Cigarette w/ 700's who ran 105mph. Mark trapped 107mph, then backed it up with a 110mph pass, bringing home the trophy and another win for Fountain. The boat looked great - congratulations!

Mark's boat is one of a kind. It is basically the 42 race boat bottom with a pleasure boat on top. It's spectacular, and accordingly is the current brochure boat. He has a home near the Fountain factory, and is the former owner of a beautiful 38 Donzi ZR. I think you can read between the lines.

They must all be built that way because, my factory report was the same as his - 107mph. I have also run 110.0 GPS pulling back off the limiters early in the season with a light load and ran 104 and change in Destin two weeks ago during the mid day heat, fully loaded with topped off fuel tanks.

Gordo won his class and also the Manufactures top gun award in the one vision Active thunder.
