Fever models
 

Is it me or is the Fever just Fountains red headed step kid? Is there any order to what models are the better or lesser models?

The Fevers were the older models and were 38' and under and got superceded by the Executioner. Not sure why you think they are inferior; they were/are pretty good boats. The lightnings were/are a bit more high end but later models (42's) shared the same hull with the EX's. On the lightnings you will generally find a bit more amenities, particularly a full framed windshield and the engine air induction vents are entirely a different style. EX's will generally be cheaper than comparable model year Lightnings.

Fevers were 27, 29, 32 and 38. No walk around to bow so it had more cockpit. They are nice boats.

And what exactly are you basing your comment on?

Personally, I always preferred the styling of the Fever/Executioner over the Lightning. I like the smoked wind screen vs. the windshield.

I second this

Funny, I'm the exact opposite but it's all about personal taste. The Fever/EX's are badass looking boats no question. The other major difference between the EX's and the LIghtnings is the ability to walk around the deck on the outside of the cockpit although I think on later model EX's that might not be an issue anymore.

The ex has the walk around. Fever doesn't. Fever has more cockpit

In no way was I trying to knock the fever models. The reason that I had asked is now that I have my 32 fever I have started looking at all of the fountain models online and just doing some comparisons. To me it looks like they are usually cheaper than some of the other models with similar size, age and engine options.

I also prefer the full windshield although i have just the wind screen. The previous owner had the side glass painted black, which I really like compared to others that are just smoke.
