I knew you were going to say that lol. I know I want a bow rider so ride quality is going to be limited. I’m also looking at a Formula 24 br and a Regal. The cobalt is my favorite so far. Price is also influencing that decision.

LOTO is the greatest. You will not be disappointed. We had a 23 Wellcraft and would go anywhere and everywhere. If it was crazy rough just put the tabs down and slow down. Have fun

Ill be heading down with the pregnant wife July 11th to look at a 29 fountain. Going to be getting there Saturday afternoon around 1PM. Sounds like it could be a little rough of a test drive, but ill be up past the 35MM so hoping it isnt too bad. If the boat checks out we will be taking it out of the water at Pirates point. Hoping we can get some good runs in, thinking about going up to big dicks and back for the test drive.

It’s not nearly as bad up by the 35mm. Good luck on the Fountain, they sell fast there. Does Big Thunder have it if so thats a beautiful boat.

Thanks! And no, Big Thunder does not have this boat. I believe you are talking about the Victoria's Secret boat? I saw that one the other day.

The boat I am going to look at is friend of a friend who didnt have the boat listed anywhere and I heard about it word of mouth. It is getting some fiberglass work done and an acid wash right now. Im super exited to sea trial it.
