Mine being.....Simply because Fountain is owned and run by a man that is driven, has a desire to be at the top of his game, and will not settle for less from his product or himself. Constant R&D and capital invested to improve the hull design have put Reggie where he is today, the man refuses to sit still. Love him or hate him, he is an innovator and leader in this industry.
True DAT!

You're right - and will probably degenerate quickly.

The easiest answer to your question though - There is a guy at my Redneck Yacht Club with a "35" fountain. It weighs 2/3rd's what my 35 Cigarette weighs.

and is 3 feet shorter atleast,

my 30 cig is bigger tied up to a 32 fountain, and the cig with stock 500's does around 82-84. im not sure what the 32 fountain does with 500's, prolly faster, but side by side the cig is and looks bigger

Yeah - that's why I put the 35 in quotes up above. I figured I'd leave out the fact that when it were to get rough he'd get beat to pieces while my crew drank beer and played with the Ipod - being obese helps sometimes.
