No offense!
 
When the post includes “No offense to the brand” you know it’s a problem! What a sharp observation to notice those puny 6 drives and call them Bravo’s 🤪

Well from a Fountain perspective, everything Is smaller than it appears. Bravos labeled as 6's and such. :hitfan:

Yep, last I heard it's still in Japan. That boat was a lot of fun. Remember the first time we ran it in Havasu. Had to be the biggest boat havasu ever saw at the time. Looking back it's funny because it's a average size boat there now lol.


I remember we took it out (I think when the pic from the Helicopter here was taken) and Kenny is just cruising at like 65-70 up the lake going towards Havasu springs. There was like 6 or 7 on board. We get near copper canyon and this dude in a 28 / 30 ish Vee bottom with a big blower scoop on it comes rolling up next to us and then hits it running past us at like 80ish, they wave at us with big smiles, we wave back. Kenny just looked over and smiled slightly. He starts pushing the throttles forward slowly at first and as we're like 400' to the rear of the other boat he lays it down. Those big blowers start SCREAMIN' and we blast past the other boat bumpin 100. We all wave, they didn't wave back. LOL. Freakin classic.

They started out as Merc 900SC and were later rebuilt by Pfaff. Made about 1000hp each. The best that boat ran was 103 on gps light load perfect conditions. Illusion was a wave crushing beast... miss her - kb
