Sonic 41os or Fountain 42 lightning
Ok guys something simple!!! I boat in the caribbean where the water is kinda rough. Based on my budget, I have narrowed it down, (but not excluded others) to a 1990 to 1993 41' Sonic os or a 42' Fountain lightning. Both most likely will be powered by a pair of 420's. Which would you choose? What speeds should I expect from both? Anything special to look for???
Thanks in advance Barry |
bnb fountain the sonics ride better but are slow
|
Buy the sonic twice the boat and its built like a rock !! When you repair them like I do you see how there built . I'd buy the Sonic!!

Thanks all. I was leaning towards the sonic myself. Does anyone have any approx speeds with 420's? Do any of you know one for sale at a good price?
Thanks Barry |
anyone?:confused:
|
From my research on OSO, you can get the Active Thunder 37 for less than a new Cigarette TS Top Gun and it will run in the mid eighties.:rolleyes:

A Sonic with 420s?...I would guess 55-60mph.
You ask about speed...and if its an issue than the Lightning is the answer. |
Defenately the Sonic. Built like tanks. Nice space. Good looks., and its not just another belly button (you know, everybodys got one.) I have a 94 with trip 502s goes 73. Trere's a guy up here with an old 41ES with 420s who claims to go 62. Good luck on youe purcase!:cool:
