That's pretty slick Wildman. You buy it like that or do it yourself?

Guess if I remove the trim switch now, I won't really miss it.

Great looking boat.

Personally I would keep the switch but get a new wheel and a differennt style switch. Then pace it on the new wheel. Wildman graffix has a great point... hands on the wheel and still trimming! Sounds like cruise control in the truck to me! I'd keep it...

I bought the dual switch plate from Livorsi and wired it up.

Very nice, congrats. on getting a Fountain, mine is a 1990 , a great solid Fountain.

Nice looking boat, and congrats! Don't think there is something wrong with your boat if you can't hit that 85mph that the previous owner told you it would run. My guess is you are about 10mph high on that estimate.
