Is it possible to convert from triples to stagared twins on a 42 Fountain? If so how much work are we talking about? Is it something to consider? I have a chance to buy a 42 set up for triples in almost perfect condition at a steal of a price but really want stagered twins. Any input from the experts would be great. Thanks.

Get Ahold Of Reggie Fountain Or R F Marine , Mine Was Done At Fountain Before I Purchased It In 09 .

Yes it can be done & will run great. Give me a call,my number is 252-495-4545. We can do it for you at RF Marine.

Well, if RF says it can be done, who am I to be skeptic?
Otoh, rather than closing three big holes in a transom and make two others in different places, I'd look for one who was already built as staggered.
Aside from structural considerations, once everything is said and done, it might well be also less expensive...
Just a thought, anyway.

We just converted a 47 triple to a stag twin setup.

Reggie what kind of power is going in the 47 ?

Twin 1300s.

cool , who is building the engines ?

There chiefs that the customer had rebuilt.

your going # 6 drives I asume ? and what kind of speeds do you think , also Reggie I faxed that contract to you today .
