Default What's the best year for a 35' Fountain?

Hey guys if you were looking for a used 35' Fountain are there some years that you would prefer to have over others? I'm talking about older single step models.

Thanks

late 99 (2000) my-2005 are good years rigging wise... the hull is the same from 97 up 97-98 has some older school looking rigging unless it has been updated

I think they switched from black to white dashes in 96 or 97. Makes a big difference in how the intererior looks.

I didnt know you could go staggered in a 35, I thought 38 was the shortest available. Anyone havea picture of one?

Take a look in the classifieds , they have a few for sale.

Fountain calls the 35 at 35' LOA and the 38 at 38' LOA. I guess that would make the 38 a 35?
