It's an awesome looking boat. It's hard to find a late 90s fountain that doesn't have a paint job straight out of Miami vice. I like the color combo on it. I think it's going to be just a touch out of my price range though.

80 mph, but she's a strong strong runner, she'll hang with the big boys. Hated getting rid of that boat, had her for 9 years, longest I've ever owned a boat. We traded for longer Beak. This boat is worth look, for a 1997, she's a solid 9 out of 10.

Are you guys able to get financing? I would love to buy this boat, I've had a hell of a time getting financed so I gave up. Was able to buy another house though so go figure!

well I guess that just about sums it up. I am all about the reliability factor. I have a friend who has whipples on his 525 efi's and its bin broken most of the summer. I really like these late 90's single step 35 fountains. I like the race farring on the sides. Don't know much about them though, as far as how they handle and things of that nature.
One of the best running Fountains I've been in straight from the Factory, reliability and speed wise. Fast enough to to thrill you, but safe not to scare you. |

Very fun to drive, sensitive to drive's and trim tabs. You can set her up to run fast and free, or little negative trim for a rock solid drive and ride.

Safety at speed that can't be challenged IMO. Mine is amazing in rough water with the tabs and drives in neutral, fast and stable in chop with drives up and no tab. |

:D that is my line, fountains are half way between the super safe wave crushers and the ultra light dancers.
