Default New Owner

Today my wife and I are the proud new owners of a 2005 29 Fountain Fever 525efi!!! I will pick her up first thing Friday morning and hopefully have her on the water later in the afternoon.

Since we sold our last boat in March of 2010, I have been searching for the right replacement. I have been lurking on this site since then. This site has been a wealth of knowledge during my quest.

Thanks OSO!!!



This picture was taken at the sellers boat house after my sea trial. I look forward to sharing more pictures after I get her home.

Thanks everyone! We like the low windshield too. The original owner ordered it clear instead of tinted. Says he could see the water better than in his previous 29 that was tinted. The performance report says 78 with a RH 26 Merc. During my sea trial we hit 75 with 3 adults and over 100 gal. Also comes with a labbed 28. We are looking forward to getting her in the water this weekend!!!

Very nice! Congratulations !! 75 mph with 3 adults and near full fuel in this weather is good.
