Hey Troutly,
How do you like the 525's? Do they run as rich as the 500 EFI's? Hope you can make it out on Lake Michigan this year. You will love our little inland lake.

Dan, Trout has the 500's in his new 382 and besides him trying to find that extra mile an hour, I think he is lovin that boat.

Hey Jeff,
Thanks.
I tried to buy one over the last few days . Called a local dealer who told me the boats would retail out around 225 to 230,000. I figured that sounded right considering the price drop on the Executioner. The ICBM was supposed to have reduced pricing. The price I got back shocked me. Somehow the ICBM went up to 300,000+ in a few days. Oh well!!!! He said if they dropped the price that much it would effect the resale of the 42's. I told him being a 35 owner I know about Fountain killing the resale. I'll buy used or left over. I'll copy the dealer sheet and post it later tonight.

I would like the new ICBM a lot more if Fountain went ahead and made it a 2004 'retro' version, recalling the original ICBM's.
Solid red (or other solid color) with the gold graphics and original-style lettering. Maybe even an updated, modern interpretation of the radar arch. The original ICBM, in my opinion, was a true offshore classic. There was NO mistaking the Fountain ICBM. Even from a distance.
BTW: Does ANYONE have pictures of one of the original 40' (12 meter) ICBM's? I have searched extensively on the Internet. All I can find is the 33' (10 meter).
