You could probably have the best of both worlds via a removable open bow cap. Progression has done it with their 24ft model.

I remember seeing a 47 Fountain lightning with an open bow. Anyone seen that boat before? I think it was a 1998?

My wife is worried it will hurt the value of it, but I think if done right it won't. Just curious. Would like to see pictures if it has been done.

Your wife is correct.

Start with something less valuable. Unless you’re talking about an old straight bottom 38 that isn’t very nice.

I was just kicking around ideas, will probably just leave it alone. Thanks for all the input.
