New to the world of Fountain boats
 
Hello all, I've recently become interested in a 30 something foot Fountain and have been trying to research the different models of Fountains. I'd like to be 30' minimum, so 2 motors, and wondering what the differences in the Lighting, Fever, etc. are. Thanks for your help!

Lightning will be faster with like power, has a nice windshield, swim ladder, anchor locker. Fevers have bigger cockpit in same lengths. I've never been in an Executioner, but have seen many pictures - you loose many of the amenities that the Lightnings have. There is a ton of info here on OSO - start reading.

If you're looking for a minimum of 30' in a Fountain you better start at their 38 models :drink:
