My boat runs 75-80 in Lake Michigan...regardless of Fountain's rep as "not a wave-crushing, rough water boat," its all in how you drive it. Boat flies level and is just long enough to span the Michigan chop without issue until it gets over 4'...but at that point, you might want to stay tied to the pier. I've been out in 6s and running 65 mph...I don't care what boat you are in with the size range you have mentioned...in 4-6 water, you will be flying.

And mine might be for sale soon...


For the record...its JIM Porter with the Phantom.

flying can be fun! but I will say... the mistress rarely flies too much do to the weight.... cafe flies much more with same hull....

if I put some tab in the mistress and run big water she don't fly .... it is however easier to stuff it in big water just gotta find the happy spot in it.....knowing the boat is half the battle...

IF i was going to sell, i would say buy my boat... BUT, its not for sale
i would look into finding a 33 PowerPlay. KID's 33 AT also hits the rough stuff very well.

SMARTY how much for the white and purple phantom? those are both bad ass boats! Not 100% sure about the very best ride in that class... but a sweet ride for sure!

This was from a similar thread posted recently about he purple and white 34' Phantom I do not personally know the owner and I will assume he will be OK with me posting this which may help him sell his boat:

"My 34 Phantom is hands down the best bang for the buck. Brand new everything this winter. 675hp naturaly aspirated, Xr's, -2 Shorties. 105mph on GPS so far and still more dialing to do, not to mention we have had 90+ degree weather since the boat has been finished. Turn key reliable absolutly needs nothing and will run through any water you throw at it. Ran AC poker run at 90mph in the ocaen like I was in a 42' boat. 65k takes it. I have that invested this year. Im moving into a cat, I just cant seem to go fast enough. LOL"

Here is the link to where the thread where this was posted.

The picture was taken a few years ago, previous owner. This is a nice boat.
