ABSOLUTE AUCTION 1996 42 fountain
 

ABSOLUTE AUCTION 1996 42 stag motor boat all rigging no motors or drives . ]WWW.USAUCTIONS.COM:D:D :D SEE PICS IN CLASSIFIEDS ADDS:D

That would be a complete nightmare!

You can say that again!
I wouldn't take it if it was given to me.

Did you see the bid history? Current bid 34,100!! OUCH. I wonder if he ment to bid 34.10.:eek: :eek: :eek:

ill send you a project lol!

Holy crap! Someone tried to "bottom paint" a Fountain? That's damn near the whole boat! They're half sunk as it is, just anti-foul the whole damn thing!

Mark

Interior looks like chit, Exterior looks like chit,
new style deck hatches? :rolleyes:
whats with the dock box in the cabin?

And yet, they cared enough to bottom paint!

I was expecting the transom, swim platform, and half the engine hatch to have bottom paint on a close up!!

I'm trying to figure out how a six year old boat could possibly look that bad:confused: Talk about abuse:rolleyes:

My buddy bought the exact same boat in worse condition for around 30K it is a show piece now. That boat was a customs boat.

Too Old
He's out of town this week , but I'll try to get the before and after pics next week. How much are they at now on this boat?

I'd like to say that that boat was run hard and put away wet, but it doesn't look like anyone ever put it away at all. The radar arch looks to be the cleanest thing on the boat. Guess they never got around to installing the actual radar, or they might not have gotten caught. :eek:

LOOKS MORE LIKE A 1986 TO ME:confused:

At least the K-planes are still on the transom :rolleyes:

I heard the winning bidder gets one of these too!:eek:

I WOULD SAY THE OWNER OF THAT BOAT SHOULD BE SHOT, BUT I'M SURE HE WAS ALL READY!!!!!!!!!

Compare this to the 38 Pantera w/o power & drive but basically new that was for sale in the classifieds earlier and the Pantera was a steal. The Cigarette someone is debating on selling for 50K is also a steal compared to this.

$ 34,100 bid? :eek: maybe the bidder knows that somewhere in that heap of a mess is still some unfound treasure waiting to be claimed :)

Good luck to whomever buys that.

42 fountain
 

low dollars for a 42 just sold 1992 42 trip with no power for $58000.00 last weak with no trailer this boat is not that bad saw it today at there yard. not that bad all rigging is there needs seats redone and motor and drive systems,I have 1999 502 mpi and drive that i can sell if one of you buy it:D :D:D need to see this boat

Saw this boat........its an ex customs boat......pictures dont do it any favors..it will clean up much nicer than what it appears....a little cleaning and polish will go a long way..hull seems to be solid from what I saw....it does need an interior and engines/drives....and I dont know what would be involved with removing the bottom paint...but for someone with time and experience this could be brought back, if you are done with the sonic this could be your next project Fred....:D

Was it an old Patrol boat or something that they seized??

How could you ever get that bottom paint off?

I not interested it already too far out of my reach!! It would make a awsome Mail Box. Or maybe a sign for someone's marina!!

Ryan
You must be talking about Richards boat. That thing is prime!!! He did a fantastic job...better then factory. And a lot less cost. Wish I had the time and facility to do that.
See ya soon now that the boating season is starting :)

33 fountains make nice dumpsters. FUNHOME you can try to water your boat and make it grow :p :p :p :p :p :p your not a nice guy ! are you! I trying to help some one get a nine boat for no money be nice, or some bigger may step on you, have a great day:D

Is there a Optometrist on the board?????
Cast needs a eye exam:p :D :D

I have never seen a 96' Fountain with a "retro" dash like that. I wonder how they determined it was a 96 model? I have rebuilt a few boats but this one is already way beyond a reasonable price even if it didn't have bottom paint. This is what happens when a blow-boater owns a Fountain. They paint the bottom and take out the engines. If it wasn't recovered sooner it would have had a mast and an outboard! :D :D :D

That thing whatever it is gave me chicken skin.

joey :eek:

I dont think it looks THAT bad
Yes it is rough no doubt but it is able to be revived im sure
but then again what the hell do I know
My toilet is still waiting for engines for the second time now
Jason

Scott, I know what you mean!!:eek:

Cast, Dumpster:confused: Well it has been known to haul some "White Trash" before!:D
Water my Fountain:rolleyes: It just happens to be getting rained on as I type!! If it grows I'll let you know!!;)
I'm not a nice guy:p Now, that's Funny!!:D I'm usually TOO NICE!

I hear you on trying to get someone a good deal on a Boat!! But, calm down I was just asking a couple of questions!!

BTW, They do have a 42ft boat as a sign at the Lake of the Ozarks. We do everything in a Big way here in the Midwest!!

"Someone may step on you" that sounds like words of a BLOWHARD!

Quote from a PM I just got from CAST!

blowhard
any time any where name the place jerk off
