I own the blue 1993 now. It's a monster in the rough water. We love it. Triple 525 SC and I've had it 78 on GPS. The other 42 is at Performance Boat Brokerage, call Brett or Matthew they also take trades. No need to wait for yours to sell. :drink:

Oh, it's consiginment so I guess I could see that. Put yours on Craigs list and eBay and make it happen. You will love the 42 for sure.

I never buy one with the intention on keeping it, not sure what's wrong with me. :grinser010: I tend to pick up a boat and tinker around with it and then when I get all the little items taken care of list it.

Our first boat was a 1972 tri-hull Cobalt! Over the years we have been moving up in size. Our last three boats before the Fountain were Baja’s. We had a 25 Outlaw, 29 Outlaw and 33 Outlaw. This 42 Fountain came up and it just worked for us. I never know what I’ll end up with next, most of the time I end up with what I say I would never own. This Fountain was after I said “I’d never own a triple engine blower boat” I swear I’m going to stop saying “I’d never own. . . . . . :” who knows what we will end up with next. The first few boats I did this with drove the wife nuts, she’s getting use to me now and even helps sell/buy them.

I drove a 39 Quattro that Matthew had for sale and loved it I think if I ended up in one of those or a newer 42 with 700 SCi’s I’d stop doing this for a few years. I think. . .

I’ve also drove the 1991 42 that your looking at, it’s a nice boat.
