I am not sure bit I thought I heard there were only 3 of them made. I know Pete at CMS had a red one for sale a while back. It's in the sold section on his site. I know there is one that has been camped out on eBay. That's the one that hade the transom filled and painted green. I remember one was in Cleveland in the mid 90s. It was all white with red & blue accents. The boat was killer! One of my all time favorite Fountains....

This looks like it could have been a "dealer" boat...

J-Bonz you are correct about the 47CS in Cleveland Ohio. It was owned by Doug Mickey. It initially had triple tunnel ram induction motors but had all kinds of problems with them so he went with triple Mercurser 1000SC. I managed the boat and went out on it occasionally. I brought the boat up on plain one time and cruised it at 90mph and I moved it around the marina a lot. Amazing boat with some history to it. I would love to find out what happened to it. Doug had a sudden death and never new what became of the boat. Would love to have that boat today with a notched haul. Raw and bad ass these CS boats were. Thank you
