Fellow selling it is a stand-up guy, but you'll need drives and eventually some other things and by then you're close to $40k or more for a brand without much recognition. Keep checking craigslist for Reno/Tahoe with surroundings, always high-quality stuff showing up.
This Fountain looks like a great boat. Wouldn't pay more than low $30K's though. The owner bought a classic Donzi Minx, so he obviously is a real boat guy. https://redding.craigslist.org/boa/d...344053988.html https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...2f2ac843ea.jpg |

Its even tougher up here in western Canada. Go fast boats are not really popular up here. So its a small market. I'm looking at a 42 Fountain Lightning and a Formula 357SR1 currently. I might buy them both and sell them next season for a straight bottom Top Gun. Can't drive down to the states right now, border closed due to covid or Id be buying in the states.
