Fountain's are Wet Boats?
 
Haven't had much chance to use my new(used) one yet. Are Fountains wet boats compared to Cigs, OL or just some models? Specifically is there a difference between Ex's and Lightnings? Please post experience not just opinion.

When you asked "wet" do you mean "stuff-age"...Yeah I've stuffed mine a few times up here on Lake Michigan.

i've been on a 42 a few times. it was a very level, comfortable riding boat....but we did get wet a couple times when it got rough.

All boats are wet. They float in the water!! :evilb: :evilb: Well not mine but most do :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I have ridden on a few and found them not to be any worse then others.

Not stuf***e I hope! Just getting the family and the women splashed too much. We had a 33 Baja before this and was not a wet ride at all even with moderate cross wind.

Well you might get some spray back at ya since the bow is farther forward and the water has more time coming across in a cross wind.
