Welcome to the Board, 40.

That is a beautiful example of the Original.
If you don't mind, what did a boat like that sell for in 1987?
I'm just interested in a comparison to 2004 pricing.

And, what state are you in?

That's a pretty good example of how @ most any size, the prices have doubled give or take, in <15 yrs. RIDICULOUS . What else has doubled?...your wages??

Back in '87 there was NOTHIN' like that on the water. There was no mistaking an ICBM, even from a distance.

If you concentrate, you can actually hear that thing idling across your screen. . . . .

More pictures would certainly be nice. Got anything from the interior maybe?
Is it original power? What power is in it? How does she run? Where does she run?

For sale?

Happy Holidays,

I am enclosing a few more pictures of the Fountain that were taken this year. It is in the sling getting ready to be put in the water for the season.

I would like to answer some of your quesitons. In 1987 the cost of the boat was 129,000 which included a Myco trailer, Mercury #2 speedmasters and supercharged engines. The dash is the same as the earlier picture in this post with Reggie Fountain. I had the interior redone a few years ago. It has the orginial power since 1987 but this winter I am getting the engines redone with 540 Cu engines.

I really enjoy the performance handling of the Fountain.


Happy New Year
