I'd say go with Fountain for the "Fast and Furious" look. But the Formulas have a more spacious cuddy cabin. It just depends on what you like better.

Fastboatr1 07-12-2001 11:34 PM

To heck with it all, they both suck. Fountain and Formula. I wouldn't be caught dead in some piece of junk Fountain or some rat-trap Formula if "Phantom" had any sense he own a Phantom. Put some real "big" power in both of them. Take em out to the big water and watch both hulls fall apart. But, you can't polish a terd. MY OPINION!

Were you at the Island on Saturday? I saw JR at the ramp, he thought you went over. I went to replace my frayed belt and found my circ pump bearing grenaded. Bummer no boating today. Puttin on two new ones tomorrow. Are you going to LB next Sat or Sun?

Hmm... no reply from D MAN.. He knows it is true that the F-men are Technologically Superior!!

Hey Turbo!

Yeah..........we had a great day on Saturday. Really nice at the island, sunny and warm. Six of us headed out and anchored the other side of the Casino and water taxied to the island for some burgers and MaiTai's at Luau Larry's. After that, we headed up a couple of coves and set anchor again and did a little snorkeling. Never did hook up with Bobbit. He was at Hooters by 11:00am I think! Party animal! Looked like JR is getting ready for some action at the Catalina Ski Race. Should be great.

I am going out on Friday (for sure) from Newport and maybe Saturday again. Wazzzzup?

I'm pretty sure DMAN is running with his devil tail tucked between his legs........just can't handle the heat I guess. THE TRUTH IS DEVASTATING!!!!!!!!!

Nort (aka Universal Chaos) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

PS: And the "D" stands for DON'T want to respond.

DEVIL MAN 07-16-2001 12:35 PM

Norton....You are way under the bus....listen to Hot Boats....he settles the entire issue...has both boats....his words say it all...plain and simple...black and white!!!!!! Shut up and get back into your hole!!!! I am done debating with you!!! I have a new Falcon owner to bash....welcome to the thread Mr. Turbosonic man....

BATTLESTATIONS EVERYONE!!!!!! We are going to war!!!!!

DMan

DEVIL MAN 07-16-2001 12:41 PM

Thanks for the offer of help Nick, but no, I do not need help on this one....I have been waiting for Mr. Turbo to show up for a week....he has just been rope a doped....and he does not even realize it. He has verbally insulted and attacked the D Man....I operate much better when bloodied....this should be fun....we can go down memory lane together with Turbo 1 and everyone will see who the Poodle is!!!!!
I appreciate the offer. Thanks.

DMan :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

PhantomChaos 07-16-2001 01:13 PM

Like I said, the forked tail is between his legs.........you're done debating DMAN because we F-Men said you're done!!!!!!

Nort (aka Universal Chaos) :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

DEVIL MAN 07-16-2001 01:32 PM

For starters Turbo 1.....you are a sucker....why would you even enter this donnybrook????? I have way too much dirt on you....you dummy!!!!!

FACT Yes, besides a Fountain, I owned a Formula.....so, that makes me twice the expert as you and the Phantom Man.

FACT I had stickers on my Fountain...Yes!!! I raced my Fountain you dummy...I had sponsores pay me to put their logo on my boat!!! You have stickers on your boat....you do not race nor do you receive money for your stickers, therefore, like I said before, you are a wannabe!!!!!

FACT I do not use a GPS...the DMan uses a compass and the Stars!!!! The DMan is totally in sync with Nature!!!

FACT Turbo 1 is a freeloader and a backstabber!!!

FACT Turbo 1 along with his pregnant wife and the two year old came to stay with the DMan for a two week visit while his new home was being built.....eight months later, Turbo 1 was still mooching off the DMan and family. Every night, Turbo Man would come hone and say, "Just a few more days..!!!"

FACT Turbo 1 in nine months, did not pay rent, did not pay for water, did not pay for electricity, did not pay for gas, did not pay for the gardener, did not pay for insurance, did not pay for food and incedentals....

FACT DMan had to buy new carpeting after Turbo 1 moved out!

FACT DMaan had to repaint the entire house, both inside and outside after Turbo 1 left!!!

FACT Devil Man completely supported Turbo 1 and entire family!!!!

FACT Devil Man and crew would wait for Turbo 1 to make sure he would get back to port safely in his Falcon. Sometimes waiting up to an hour on a 15 mile journey out to sea!

FACT Turbo 1's wife and babies would scream on boat ride with Turbo 1....even the two year old knew she was in the Pacific Ocean in a death trap with a goofball driving.

FACT Turbo 1 semi leakproof trim caps will eventually cause backpressure and cause your entire trim system to explode!!!

FACT Turbo 1 in local So Cal waters in known as T-Bone Lyall due to the fact he T-Boned a custom built wooden sailboat that was moored in Newport Harbor. Thank God for reverse or T-Bone's Falcon would still be sitting on top of that poor guys teak handrails!!!! It was broad daylight with 25 mile visibility in a harbor with a no wake zone....but that collision created a nice wake. Now, take a guess who knows how to use their GPS!!!!! Lot of good that did!!!!!
Mr. Navigation expert!!!!! Freakin Gillligan with a skipper's license!!!!

FACT In the same year, Turbo 1 forgets to hook his trailer AND CHAINS up to his truck and promply sets the world speed record for reverse in a FALCON as it hit 57 miles per hour as boat and trailer went back into the drink....on Christmas EVE!!!!!! After five hours of fly fishing, Turbo manages to get boat and trailer tied up to the launch ramp dock and then receives a citation for side tying a trailer to a floating dock!!!!! Way to go Mr. Dockmaster, let me shouw you how to load a boat onto a trailer that is ten feel under!!!

FACT Mr. Turbo thinks he can win this verbal war, but as you can see, he has no chance....I cannot believe he entered this lion's den. If you care to continue Mr. Turbo, make my day...there is plenty more to write....one call to your wife, and she will chip in a few pages worth of bashing!!!

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Rest in peace Turbo 1....the sad part of this story.....It is all true!!!!!

DMan....and the D stands for the Dismantling of Turbo 1 and the Phantom Man!!!!!

DONZIMAN2 07-16-2001 01:41 PM

Fact: I am sticking with my Donzi. Looked at Fountain and Formula and bought another D-Boat!!!!!!!!!You go big D-MAN!

DEVIL MAN 07-16-2001 01:59 PM

FACT Donziman 2 has some brains....unlike Phantom and Turbo....sounds like a couple of cartoon characters!!!

audacity 07-16-2001 02:06 PM

blue printed?!?!?!? WOW....u really have no idea...that is just about the funniest thing i've heard about a fountain...every one tested by him??? do u have ANY idea how many are sold per year???

DEVIL MAN 07-16-2001 05:33 PM

It is true Audacity!!!! He checks all the fluid levels also.....and the engine alignment....and the ignition wires.....and....well, you know!!!!

DMAN-

You're talking out the side of your neck again........You sound like a fool. If you believe that, then you'll also believe that you get a glove box and whatever the other lie was........OH YEAH................air conditioning while under way.....

DMAN, can you read????? Here's a post from the fountain section.........IS IT CRYSTAL CLEAR NOW!!!! I took delivery of my new 2001 38' Lightning about this same time last year. It arrived with major flaws in the gelcoat, some areas missing gelcoat altogether. Also when I ordered the boat I called the factory and asked does the boat really come with a glove box as it says in the brochure? They said yes it does. I also asked if I order air conditioning will it work while underway? They said yes it does. Neither was true. The Factory's response (BK Millaway if any of you know him) "we can't be responsible for what some idiot in the sales department tells you". I don't know what logic there is to that position. As to the gelcoat, they "don't warranty gelcoat" even if was delivered in poor condition.

We all know the devil has been around for quite a while, but this DevilMan imposter has to be exposed!!!!!!! The only fact is that DMAN is talking out the side of his neck!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are WUB 10x over buddy boy.

Nort (aka Universal Chaos)

PS: And the "D" stands for "didn't see you boating this weekend!"

turbosonic1 07-16-2001 06:36 PM

WRONG! D MAN

FACT- How could I help pay for Electricity, Water and Phone when they were off 90% of the time! shall I supoena your records? The F...ing phone never worked until I fixed it.

FACT - It was 3 months and not nine, your memory is as good as your method of paying bills on time!

FACT - Carpet replacement was due to your cheap ass not replacing the washing machine hoses in the last 40 years flooding your house. Speaking of rubber products, remember your fan belts? again if not for Mr. Turbo your sorry ass would be on a tow truck 3 times form Vegas.

As far as more dirt from my wife? what the hell is that, call my wife, oh yea a Cheng tatic? you DAP!! :mad:

PhantomChaos 07-16-2001 07:12 PM

Its funny, I kinda know all three of these guys, and they all claim to be BEST BUDDIES???

:eek: :eek: :eek:

The old saying, "with friends like you , who needs enemies?"

guys, you dont realize it, but not even the BEST and STRONGEST friendships could possibly withstand the thrashing that you are giving each other.

all of you need to grow up.

dont make me turn this boat around and go back to the dock.

:eek: :eek: :eek:

stingray 07-17-2001 12:56 AM

The women have their soaps, we have the Dman, Phantom and Turbo show. Why bother making new posts when everyone is watching this go down. You know I'd love to be in a good raft-up slinging back ice cold boat-soda's when the three of you met on the water. That fella's, is where the rubber hits the road.Now what was being discussed here? Oh yeah, the F-boats. Hey how about a separate post so we don't have to scroll thru so many pages?....Now please continue... :cool:

DONZIMAN2 07-17-2001 08:35 AM

Can't wait for the sun to rise on the west coast to get this going again. Good stuff. I am still sticking with my Donzi though. They have not convinced me to go with a Fountain or Formula yet.

turbosonic1 07-17-2001 11:55 AM

DONZIMAN, you're choise is a good one also. D MAN however has chosen a Cig, if you look it up in Websters it is a *** or Small Cigar.

That explains his personality.

DEVIL MAN 07-17-2001 12:09 PM

Oh Turbo Man....you are a real gem.....WOW!!!! you freeloaded for six months and you ended up fixing the phone so your bookie could reach you....you are awesome!!! Don't forget to mention that as your going away appreciation gift, you bought me a chandalier at Cosco for the dining room that cost $19.00 and was as bright as the dome light in my Pinto!!!! More F-men technology!!!

DMan and the D is for, "NO DIMMER SWITCH!"

stingray 07-17-2001 12:11 PM

turbosonic1 07-17-2001 12:40 PM

Troutly,

I have not done that yet, I asked our local dealer and they had no knowledge of it. Do you have the service bulletin or a kit number from your reciept? That would help me out.

Thanks--

These guys ARE the best of friends. This is just comedy. Everytime we go out boating they all miss each other whenever one can't make it. But I must say that DMan is the master of the written "Body Slam". Norty is a brave soul to get in the ring with DMan, but he seems to be holding his own. I only wish Jeffery would get into the mix. I have seen him jump from the turnbuckle and land right on DMans neck. Me, I would never, my ring skills are not up to it.

Dredgeking 07-17-2001 01:53 PM

I don't want to read all the posts. Just recap for me. What is he buying?

Dredgeking 07-17-2001 03:23 PM

If he's getting a Bayliner, he can rest assured that his boat will be built with the knowledge and experience of decades of racing heritage. :D Not to mention the finest in designer interiors.
