My two cents. If you think you want a 42... GET A 42!!! I really wanted a 42, found a great 38 and loved it, but the bigger boat haunted me from the day I bought it and I never stopped looking; had my nose in the classifieds every day. Given my family needs, I finally decided that the 42 wasn't a big enough step up to warrant getting out of my 38 and ended up with the 47. I'm ecstatic about the 47 because it suits more purposes for me and my family, but I'm pretty sure if I had gotten the 42 in the first place, I would still have it. I know I will love the 47, but she's a BIG boat and will be challenging at times. I think the 42 is best boat Fountain made.

Thanks appreciate it. Full use of the shop is an awesome deal don't mess that up. I have to pay the time that's how this whole thing started figure if I make a few what's a few dozen more. :lolhit: But my new shop is taking shape CNC mill up and running and multi axis lathe should be installed by month end.

I agree with HyFive578 100% 42 is the best fountain. I've ridden and drove probably every size fountain out there minus a 47 but 42 was the perfect boat IMO.

im eventually going to step up to a 32-38 foot boat but I don't have to need or the lake room lol to really utilize anything bigger that and transport would be a pita for me.

Sold the 272. Finishing up a divorce. Should have the 42 by next summer. Have to finish giving her a pile of money then start saving again. Lol

Sorry to hear... Hope it was for the best. Giving someone 1/2 sucks trust me.

Pay Pal sent, it was linked to an old bank account let me know if it's an issue on your end. Glad you are still making them. Your PM box is full and I couldn't send my address, let me know if you need it still.

Box cleared. Address is on PayPal payment so we are good. Thanks

C'est la vis. It sucks in one way because I was happily married. However now I can continue on my quest to bang all the women in the world. Hahaha
