If I could have any boat/power, I'd get the Fountain 48 Express Cruiser (see honey it's a "cruiser"). then slip in a pair of 4,000 HP Turbines/surface drives running diesel, 'see honey it runs diesel like all the other cruisers at about the same consumption rate. I would need a pair of small 25 hp kicker diesels for dock stuff. Still would be a couple of thousand pounds less than 400 HP diesels. (install larger fuel tanks to compensate and keep keel weight the same). Wonder just how fast 8,000 HP would push a 48 EC?

On the bay here just inside Sanibel bridge, several months ago a "cruiser" blew my hatches off while I was at WOT showing 62 MPH GPS 8.8 Fountain, [he was running 80 to 90 mph I guess] all I got a chance to see was I think "Martinique-72'" with a rooster tail twice as tall and twice as long as Bacardi Silver on a kilo run. Had to be a single turbine but it did not have the compressor whine so it was a pro install. All I can say is 'I want one'. It was flying New Zealand colors. Anyone else see this?

I think I have seen it, it passed us right before Usepa during spring break. I rember pointing out to my girlfreind what a surfice drive does to the water. We chartered a 40ft tolleycraft and cruised the IWC, I just remember being in awe of it. It stopped in at Usepa for lunch, we stayed the night.

Asking 205000,has Loadmaster trailer,will run 90 when light,it is on about page four in OSO classifieds. Its paid for so I can be very creative,would consider partial trade for late model Corvette with auto trans,also collect 1970 442s ,GTOs,Chevells. Looking for property in Florida, west coast only,Sarasota first choice. You never know!
