If you would have bought a fountain in the first place she might not want any other boat

you can buy a older searay in the 35 foot range for around 30 k if you look ..they are good old boats..

You did inform her of the fact that cruisers have full kitchens, right? That stopped the cruiser conversation dead in its tracks at our house, your mileage may vary.

My 32 Regal has been an extremely solid boat and very well built. With 454's and bravo 3's it runs 50 on GPS and does have an aft bed, bathroom, and kitchen. You can buy clean examples for short money at this point, the lines are timeless (in my opinion), and you could possibly afford to keep your boat as well. To be honest, as much fun as I have on my Formula, a day out on the cruiser is equally enjoyable and we spend more days on the water from morning to evening with it.

What he said!

I really like the looks of the sunseeker 45 they are a ton of loot though !!! Anybody on the board have a 38 fountain express cruiser would really like some insight on that model.

Bob baker on here has one, butt ugly boat but tons of room bob use to own the scarad III with the yellow and blue interior. Cant remember his name on here, memeory slipping . . . . .gettin old . . . . Lol

That is bad AZZ. Don't see too many cruiser throwing a rooster tail, and imagine the looks on guys faces as you blow past them in what equates to a small ship.

niiiice ok get her the cruiser... but at least keep a small go fast like a sweet 16

there was a badazz magnum for sale recently, with big disels and arneson surface dives. i think it went mid 50s or better, 45ft as i recall that would be best of both worlds
