Fountain 35 Lightning - how fast?
Hi!
I have got a nice quote on a new Fountain 35 Lightning w/twin Merc 496 HO (425 HP). I have not decided if we will buy it.
I would be very happy if you could tell me how fast this boat should run with:
1. 2 x 425 HP
2. 2 x 580 HP (Procharger, etc)
3. 2 x 625 HP (Prosharger, etc)
Lower units will be upgraded ofcourse.

Fever Mike,
I may be off by some??? I was guessing off of Fountain saying the 35 w/ 500efis would run 86, and the 35 with 575 have run arouns 90-93. I have only been in a 35 with 415hp I think we GPS around 81mph ??

Fountain 35 Lightning - how fast?
Hi!
According to Fountain website:
2 x 425 = 80 mph +
2 x 470 = 85 mph +
2 x 550 = 92 mph +
Or should I buy a Phantom 34...?
2 x 425 = 80 mph +
2 x 470 = 90 mph +
....
