Default New 38 fountain owner!!

thanks so much for every ones help in helping me find a real special 38 lightning! It is a 2007 38 lightning w/525's w/its shorties- it was kept at the fountain factory and specially built for a close friend of Reggie. Bottom was blue printed at the factory and a little higher x-dimension. I have to say it is absolutely perfect. Again thanks to everyone here!

I did not buy the 38 at bent marine-however i did consider it until i found this one-the difference was this 38 was always maintained/stored at fountain/NC. It also had a blueprinted bottom,racepak, and 7 blade herings-the 7 blade herrings are key to this set-up since i have heard for fact that 6 bladers are being tossed! It was about three weeks ago that i was at the factory picking up the boat and WOW there was like 5 people there? so saaaad! Anyway we got to take it out for a quick test run-96GPS! with 3/4 tank-not bad!!

Yes-Braxton was a fanatic as you know- Braxton was such a gentlemen in the transaction-also Gail(fountain) was a great help-they both have such a great regards for you Reggie! We cruised past your home while test driving the 38 fountain! Not only do you have good style with your boats but the same can be said about your home! Good luck with the new facility!
