the new 42 executioner
 
Ive heard that the new 42 ICBM has had a name change, and they are going to call it the 42 Executioner not ICBM. Maybe there going to save the ICBM name for a all red boat.

They have a new 42 Ex at a new Fountain dealer in my area. Saw it last Sat. looked pretty good but no details on equipment. It appears to be the same setup as the 35 Ex, graphics, etc. Could not tell what power was in it and the salesman was unfamiliar with the line, it was that new to their outfit. He thought it had twin 525 SC's and would do 88mph...asking price was 229K...go figure!

The new "classic deck" 42 that was at the NY show was called "Executioner". I wondered about it at the time. Different graphics from the 35 and I think it did have 525s.

525 scs
 
Yes the 42 classic deck does have 525s and they did decide to call it the executioner(politically correct thing)
and ya go figure its start is 229? was told this by Trenton marine....She is verrrrry Nice!!!!Gotta have ! Must Have !!! Damn check book!!!:D :D :D

heres a 38 I saw at the Tulsa boat show

Hey Jana,

Were you up in NY for the show or just hear about the 42 Ex? Or, perhaps you made the trip north to recapture that "winter feeling" you used to enjoy in NJ!!

I took several pics of the 42x at the NY show, I will see if I can find them and post. It was sitting next to a 35X with custom paint and orange cockpit, interesting.

G - I was up in NJ visiting the parents over Christmas, so I went to the show. Lots more Fountains on display than here in Houston! The 42 was gorgeous. Didn't like the interior on that 35 Ex - orange vinyl - that'll burn you.

That 38 looks like the same boat they had in the Key Largo Fun Run featured in Hot Boat.

YOu bought the all white? I looked at that last fall before I bought the cig. Charlene was pushing it hard and I also looked at the left over 98 42, I really liked that boat but she still wanted 220 for it and I could have bought a new ex 42 for the same $$ and bigger power.

Yep that was me.

It was nice meeting you and your wife, im sure your excited about warm weather getting here now. Will you be keeping the boat at the lake or moving it ?

I have had a couple 42's and know them well, if i can help you in any way give me a shout.

We got a trailer for it but will spend about 1/2 our time on LOTO and the other half in Illinois. Do you know any one in the LOTO area or St Louis are that could make a full cover for it?

Hi-Tech It's a 1995 42' but your more than welcome to take a look. This is our first offshore style boat with twins so we did not want to spend a ton of $$$$$, but that new 42' EX thats at the St. Louis boat show sure looks nice.

Chart 02-06-2004 05:04 PM

Your first offshore with twins is a 42 fountain? Dang. Nice going!!!

nitrofever 02-06-2004 06:38 PM

Does anyone have any pic's of the new 42X from the NY show?

epeek 02-06-2004 09:03 PM

I'll tell you. I was at the N.Y. show & that 42 EX
was beautiful. 229K is a steal for that boat.
Compare to the 357 Formula with 500's at the
same price.I agree with Jana on the 35 EX.
That orange interior was ugly

fountaindriver 02-09-2004 07:45 PM

The 38 Lightning in the Tulsa show is one of the boats I have iin inventory. It is a new boat. The paint job does resemble the paint scheme on my 42 Lightning you saw on the cover of Hotboat.

BTW, JRYAN26, did you like the 38 Lightning and did you notice the dash.
