Downtown42 12-24-2011 10:39 PM

Gotcha- my '93 35 was a great boat built alot better than the 05.

ROB FREEMAN 12-25-2011 07:00 AM

i agree . looked at alot of newer fountains . newer stuff in the 60 to 80 k range . nice boats ,i had my 27 listed on ebay and this guy emailed me offering a trade . refurbed the boat top to bottum . sent the boat back to fountain . boat is flawless minus that guaty paint job . felt is worthy of the makeover .so here we are . still 35 k short of the newer stuff . but this ole girl all new . although ive purchased the konrad prs full conversion also witch moves me into the 55k range . looking for some bigger juice . hopefully find some before spring so i dont have to pull engines twice when the konrad conversion gets done . bye bye trs . im fiquring 80 k complete maybe a little less . and be very nicly equiped :evilb::evilb::evilb: although should be able to recoup some cash when i sell the hp 500 fountain factory put together when they redid the dash . fairing , all interior, and the motors . well see going to be a short winter alot to do ... thanks merry chistmas to all

dont know . bought it because the owner was damm near giving it away . no one wanted that gauty name . plus the boat was faded . wife said shed never ride in it till it was gone . its long gone . with a brand new name .

ROB FREEMAN 12-25-2011 07:45 PM

or are you talking about the new name ? "ghetto boyz " if so this the story , my brother seems to think he lives in gods country , nort central wi . away from all the you know city slickers . so i decided to run with it since we live in the ghetto in all . thus me n my boyz will now be known as the ' Getto Boyz "

Yea got the wheel off the hub had to turn down a socket to get it to fit in the wheel. Appears that side had a bearing failure in the past and damaged the threads on the spindle. I took the axle off and took to cincy to a shop that usally removes the spindle and welds a new one on. But because it is a drop axle they would not do that so they are ordering me a new axle.

ROB FREEMAN 12-25-2011 08:30 PM

well , that sucked . sorry . trailer always served me great . although it seen limited use also . how much for that christmas gift :{

the mayor 12-25-2011 09:38 PM

500$ thats new brakes and bearings using the old hubs. Should have it this week. Then start the trailer fab work.

Your boat is tunring out VERY,VERY beautiful. It'll be a head turner for sure !!! :drink:

@ ROB FREEMAN

Did they paint your Bow rails?
Mine are powdercoated white from the factory and its started flaking off.
Im worried about them leaking if I remove and have them re-done, so I was thinking about having them sprayed instead is why Im asking
