They only run the #6's on the Fountains. They have had problems with the NXT drives and the Fountain hulls.

Beautiful boats. That 47 looks HUGE compared to the 42. What power in those....I see #6's so im guessing the 42 has 700's and the 47 has 1075's?

I met the owner of the 47 in keywest. He told me he went with the sterlings because he can easily up the HP if he wants...the 42 has 700's...best speed so far is 107.....not bad considering it has a generator and ac
