No Way!! So that is your boat? No wonder you are having trouble with it. Do you have any recorse since they sold you the boat as new, yet you have "a Movie" to prove it wasn't?

Man I really feel for ya now!! If we ever cross path's, I'll buy the first beer, heck I'll buy all the beer!!

Your correct about the dealers. Ive owned a couple of Fountains. The dealers defer everything to Fountain. Fountain just sits on it and hope you go away. This is everyone at Fountain From Reggie to Jeff Harris. Steve Harrelson just answers the phone to take the spankings. Gail acts all concerned until you hang up the phone and she goes back to file here nails. If I ran my company like Reggie does I would be out on the street. They will keep your boat at Fountain and tell you all the things they fixed for you and when you get your boat back its more F%#@@# Up then you first sent it. I've got several PM from OSO members. Its an eye opener when you see that most Fountains have horror stories worse that my. Thats why my beaks going to break off in Reggies azz.

105. I have a 27 Fever with a Procharger. I keeps the boat pretty tame until the boost comes up, around 4000 rpm then it's a rocket. I think it's a little easier on the drive since you're not allways putting big HP and torque through it. The down side is the room it takes in the engine compartment. The plumbing from the K&N filter through the intercooler and into the EFI makes working around it difficult. But ther's not much quicker around here from 40mph up.
