Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

Yes they did! They were Kilo speed setters too. Tres Martin was on that team. I have a big poster of INXS from back then.

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

The 47 is here.

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

I thought they cut the canopy off that boat back in 2001, rerigged it as a pleasure boat for someone that use to post here on OSO? However something in the back of my mind tell's me there were 2 versions of this boat. One was the #7 and the other was #1. Anyone know????

When was the last time Reggie was in a race boat. Wasnt he dominating in the real early 90s with his 42, and 47????

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

yeah that was the loudest with those trip 1,000 :eek: :D I love that boat I think I WAS THE BIGGEST CHEERLEADER UP HERE IN m******* :D , the cats mostly had twins back then in 94,I think the cat JAWS HAD 4 MOTORS BUT NOT AS LOUD AS INXS.

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...

I think you are talking about Ohio Steel?

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

My 29 Fever was a dry boat for it's size...much drier than the 36 Concept I replaced it with. WOW That 36 Concept was a wet freakin boat...ask BigMike on here...we were always wet on that thing. My 38TE Fountain is extremely dry...over a year now and never been wet on it.

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...

Spent more hours in and on the boat than I care to remember.. We did have some good times though. :drink: Been out in some pretty rough stuff!! :cool: Boat ran great as long as you were running say 65-70 and up. I think we had it running 88 or so with 550-600 hp??

Ever get those tail pipes and get er done?

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

My Hustler rides better than all of yawll's

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

Mark when they were testing your boat i remember going for a ride, You Couldnt Wipe The Smile Off My face. :cool:

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

Because my father and uncle drive and own Fountains!

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

The 42's and 47's are the only pleasure boats that ride good for their size. In big water you cant go slow unless you want tot take a bath. Reggie spends most of his money on racing and R&D, and thats why the hulls are so good. Now quality on the other hand......:(

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

May have been an Apache, since that's what INXS was when I was a kid... :drink:

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

That's was the 47 Apache "InXS." He now has a Cigarette 42 Tiger on the lift.

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

Yep ... TIGER!

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

After the guy got rid of the Apache he bought a 36 Nor-Tech from FASTBOATS.com but his wife didn't like it and both times he went out in it he had problems so he traded the cat into Hideaway Marina on the Tiger.

A buddy of ours had traded that Tiger into Hideaway Marina on American Muscle. We spent many good days on it:drink:

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

Now all he needs to do now is put the right bunks underneath it. :eek: :D

They ride real good so I'm surprised he didn't get a Fountain! :rolleyes:

Re: Why do Fountains ride so good...
 

They are going to ruin the hull on that 42 Tiger if they do not properly support it. GEESH I can not believe they are doing this to there boat!
