That's a nice boat, paint is a little busy for my taste but i could get used to it. Especially those staggered #6's. Sweet......... :cool:

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

It sure looks sweet, but can we get some more info on that particular NA EFi system? Are those CG legal flame arrestors?

I hope the motors are dialed in, as they look finicky, but I really do like the boat.

hey parnell............. :evilb:

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

That boat used to be at LOTO. It was on a lift in the same cove we always stay--16.5mm. In a dozen times I've been down over the past 4 years, I think I saw it out once for the Shootout. The previous owner now has an Outerlimits GTX(42' I think) that he had on the lift last Summer.
I'm sure JBK or TBone will know something about it.

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

Motors are sweet!!! Anyone know who makes the intake system shown in the 9th photo?

Yup, saw it at the Shootout in 2002. Don't know anything about it other than it looked flawless at the time.

Re: interesting boat.... any info?

One of my customers is selling his 42' Fountain. Its a staggared 1050 Sterling boat with #6 dry sumps. Has around 40 hours I think on it. Boat runs in the 120's. Awesome piece. Clean as a pin as well. Maintnance isn't an issue, I see the boat about every 10 to 15 hours for oil changes and check overs.

there's a LS scarab for sale at www.doublerperformance.com as well

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

looks great, just check on the valve train maintenece with the big chief heads...ask craig/old school...

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

I think it would be cool to have a rarer boat. You can shake a tree, and a Cig will fall out.

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

sweet boat just make sure you love it as your gonna have trouble selling it. i have seen several ls scarabs for sale for ever

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

JJ pretty much summed it up... I saw it up close in September. It is not as nice as when the original owner had it, but a little TLC could bring it right back.

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

www.chicagofountain.com doesnt' work for me - is the site down?

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

It just worked for me..

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

yeah but a twin step boat? just not comfortable w/ the idea of a low production t/s experiment

apache tried it and failed... bad

how many are there and how do they handle turn?

id say shes worth about 125k

Nauti kitty/ trick old sutphen w/ sixes and big power limited production boat sold for <100k

Re: interesting boat.... any info?
 

Yep, been on that one at LOTO.
It left the lake a year or 2 ago.
The quality, rigging, etc is second to none. If CMC in St Louis did the "recent engine rebuild" I would have a lot of confidence in it. Rock solid runner, and the paint is amazing.
