I fly in to Orlando or Jacksonville. I drove down from daytona. I think there is an airport in Melborne, but it costs about $400,00 more per ticket.

Picked up the boat from lake X. They dialed it in at 81/82 mph with Bravo 30" labbed props. They handed me back 90lbs of bent metal that was installed in the drive line. Didn't run it yet. Boat was brought down to Miami so a Certified surveyer could look at the boat. Lake X guys said some of the parts were the worst they ever seen. Best part is that Jeff Harris from Fountain stepped up and paid for the repair(s) plus a XR prop shaft upgrade I had on my credit card. Thanks Jeff. It is appreciated greatly. I bought new labbed 30" props that they recommended. What a great bunch of guys. So we continue the legal stuff untill the rest of the boat gets addressed and then some.

ECSTATIC FOR YOU FULL THROTTLE. SOUNDS LIKE THINGS MIGHT BE TURNING AROUND FOR YOU.SEE,YOUR BOAT MIGHT JUST BE LIKE A FINE WINE.......IT JUST TAKES SOME TIME TO BE PERFECT.ALSO SOUNDS LIKE THE FASTEST 500 EQIPPED 42' I'VE HEARD OF. JUST TRY AND BE POSITIVE,AND MAYBE YOUR DEALER AND FOUNTAIN WILL GET THE REST OF THE STUFF TAKEN CARE OF.GOOD LUCK:

Are ya happy?

Congrat's!! You were due for some good news!! That's Great the Jeff Harris Stepped up to the plate on behalf of Fountain!!

What was the 90lbs of bent metal that was on the Driveline?

Everything on the drive line was bent or twisted. Bearings were out of round and loose from the gimbals to the propshaft

fullthrottle42a, hope things are looking up for you , and if you get them in court could you ask reggie what size prop he puts on a 29 with twin 525sc, I have ask the questrion at the factory four five months and no answer yet. but I found out on my own , and if you guys need any questions answered bayliner is out of business but they are glad to help.

Watch the movie and you'll see how that happened.

Well we finished our first run, Jacksonville last weekend without blowing up or burning up. Merc racing did great sorting out the drives. Dont like the Bravo props. Great hole shots but no top end. My hydromotives are getting worked over. Have not got any of the other stuff adressed. MORE CRACKS in the glass though. Craaap.

BOATSAROCKIN: IT DON'T MATTER IF FULLTHROTTLE BOUGHT HIS BOAT FROM THE FREAKIN' EASTERBUNNY! THE FACTORY BUILT THE BOAT NOT THE DEALER. LEGITIMATE COMPLAINT!
