I think the other open 29 has a 565. I think this one is just a 25. Matter a fact I'm almost 99% sure it has a 525...

Who knows..either or, it runs great!

Next it's going to be Fountain invented the stepped bottom...last I checked wasn't the first stepped bottom created in 1909-1910...this is just evolution of the technology...as the same with the pad...

Makes sense. I never got to see under the hatch of the race boat at LOTO.

It doesn't have nitrous, that's a fresh 525....I saw the boat from when it was ready for paint to full rigging...it's a great running boat. As far as the pad, give it a rest. A padded bottom is a padded bottom, this is Outerlimits' design of the particular bottom. Does it say Fountain on the bottom? No.....get a look at something other than the transom as was shown during the shoot out this year...maybe that might shed some light on it...

Give credit where credit is due...or build a boat to compete with it....it's a great running boat...let's see how it runs as it starts to run races...

Good luck OL!

I think Fountain needs to run a boat inside the no wake bouys on a LAKE and see how they do. LOL Isn't this OFFSHORE only?

Ha, that is beside the point. I'm talking about the boat not, how the owner runs it...

With that statement, doesn't that take away every lake boater we have on here....

Bow gracefully to the gods of litigation that I didn't lose everything I had worked for my whole life because some 10 year old was floating by her dock when Brian was demonstrating the amazing abilities of the OL.

But that's just me.

If I was somebody who thought there was anything cool about that run and defended it, I would just be embarrassed.
