Just joined this forum and looking for some advise on what to buy. I was in boating 13 yrs ago before I joined the CG. I figured I could drive them for free there. Getting out, so I will get back into it next year. It's definitely going to be a Fountain. Cash is always a concern, but I'm looking at the 32's. I'm thinking 1990-1996, 502's, 500HP's, 525's? I do like the EFI's, but not sure what year they started that. It will be run on lake erie, where it can get snotty fast. Sorry about the long thread, but just need a little advise from the experts. thx!

HP500EFI started late 1999 I believe.

For other question:

Lot's of good deals out there, get a 35. You will want the length for Lake Erie.

+1 on the 35.

Easy on the 32's I may want to sell mine some day!

Crystal River and Lake Eola ain't no Lk Erie

There MIGHT be a really nice red 35 for sale soon....I'll know in two weeks...
