I like the new Black Thunder..or NorTechs...Formulas
Quite frankly now that the offshore world is one of 100+ mph boats...a Douglas Skater is on my wish list.
Everything in offshore boating is a comprimise...as our old buddy used to say.

Absolutely...those kind of packages and prices are what makes Fountain tick.

Umm, I went for a ride in one of those fountain type boats over the weekend, Best ride I have been on in a while it was pretty fast as well, who knew you only had to turn on the third engine when you wanted to break 100mph.Pretty Nice

Look at the rake in the nose of a 42 Tiger to the water
