No problem here. I just don't think someone who doesn't have a boat, shouldn't be poking fun at someone that does, no matter how many boats he may have owned in the past. That's like saying, my dad can beat up your dad.

Maybe if you would get off the couch and get your butt
down to the lake with us you could have heard Brad's boat first hand!!!!!hahahaha. The Fountain in question looked like BZ's getting on plane so I think that is what the issue appeared to be Hippiekid!!!! I am confident that he had plenty of "Go-Stick" just not a long enough runway. Hammer

Just think that poontoon can prob out run about 50% on the boats on this board,encluding mine when it was stock
but I wouldnt want to turn in it at any speed very sharp
If ya talk to some of the guys that have run it,some get a better running start at the light.Like one buddy said they flaged him down coming in to hot at the start and he was off plane hitting the green light,he learned real quick

I'm thinking you missed the point, there, cowboy. A 34 Phantom probably has a longer running surface than a 35 Fountain, I was using the 25 foot example as an exageration...in literary terminalogy we would refer to it as a "hyperbole." Look it up.
But, if we're running even power, name the place. I ain't scared, especially if there's some waves involved.
