This Fountain CC is GETTIN' IT!!
This Fountain is doing a VERY nice job in some SERIOUS water!!! 
I don't give Fountain props often but I do when I see something like this

I've been on this boat going out of Gov Cut in Miami and it's awesome. I have a triple engine 275 Verado version of this boat. It really handles rough water very very well.

A quad 275 Verado Fountain 38TE (10'6" beam!) will run 80-82. A quad 2 stroke Merc 300xs will run 85-88mph. The Hooter boat pictured had quad Merc 250xs on it when I ran it and with 3/4 tank of fuel (about 325 gallons) and 4 people we did 82mph.
My boat has triple 275 Verado's and will run 73mph and cruise at 50-55 easy.
You have to remeber that this boat has a 10'6" beam and with some fuel on board weights around 12,000lbs.
