My brother had a 29' Fountain with the same motor as ,e(525). Definitely a good 7 MPH faster than my 28 AT, but holy hell did that thing get beat up in anything over 2 footers.

Depends what kind of boating you're looking to do. I've owned a kryptonite and it is one bad ass boat. Really great if you want to load her up with 4-5 people go out get some lunch/dinner and some drinks. Plenty of cockpit room to hang out all day as long as you're tied up to a cruiser. The ride is extremly stable and is very dependant on you're driving skills. For instance, in real 3 footers... and I mean real 3 footers Joey Impressica took me out in my boat hammered it and had it trimmed so perfectly it was an amazing ride. The best ride I had in the boat.If you want a hotrod to buzz around in I'd go with the 27/30 activator or 30 y2k.

Your kypto was a great looking boat I always used drew over it..... What did it run? And why would you not look for another one?

What is your budget? And are you mechanically inclined? Find a 33 PP...

LOL no. Blocking tomorrow and primer on Sat then block again. Prob paint next weekend then just waiting on tails and rubrail... Smartass. :hijack:



There were a couple 1995/6 33's floating around that needed some tlc. Engine and interior. Who wants to settle for a lesser boat if they could have a PP???
