Wow! I'm jealous as he!!. I shopped and shopped, and then shopped some more over the last 6 months for a Fountain. I paid 3k more than you for a 98 with brand new merc 502s. Kudos to you, that's one badass ride! I looked and looked for a 35 in the uder 40k price range, and the only one I found was a 96 in KY with 502s. Please tell me it's a saltwater boat, just to alleviate my second guessing...

MAN! Congratz on the sweet deal! I didn't see it mentioned but how many hours on the hull/motors and drives? What was the asking price?

Wife and I have been looking at everything from Fountains to Donzi's to older CIGS...just depends on where we land I guess but think someone mentioned it listed in the 60's (?) man, that's a 50% discount....I was in the business for a lot of years and I'm not even that good....I'm taking you with us when we sell ours and pull the trigger on new!

Congratz again!

Are you tearing them down? Looks like salt got ahold of the paint on the blocks... Paint them pink. That's what 33outlaw is doing...
