New Owner & New Project
 
Hey there guys, been following the fountain threads for the past couple of weeks just reading info. Man there is lots of good info here. Well, I am a past Baja owner and now a current Fountain owner. I pick up a nice 87 10 Meter a few weeks back that needed a little TLC. Motors are in great shape with low hours on rebuild and it has been updated with Bravo drives. I decided to freshen up the paint and add a custom swim platform and tweak the interior a little. Here are a few pics of the boat, the first being the before shot and then the after shots. I haven't got the swim platform in yet but it has been shipped. I will keep the progress coming on here, just wanted to let all of you fountain guys know that there is a new proud owner on the block. Oh by the way, I have been wanting a fountain for years, I can't wait to be out on the water.

Thanks, The interior is all white, it is still the old ribbed style, I plan on updating it in the future. The dash, throttles and gauges all have been updated by the previous owner. The cabin seems to have already been updated as well. It has square back benches and looks like the newer style. It has a set of built 468's with B&M blowers with 1050 carbs. The previous owner said it was a mid 80's boat. I haven't had the chance to stretch it out yet, hopefully this weekend we can see what she will do.

Great looking boat - enjoy the ride. That thing looks like a wave crusher.
