I AM NEW TO OSO. I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT PURCHASING A BOAT A 27'-29' FORMULA OR A 27'-29' FOUNTAIN. I HAVE OWNED 2 FORMULAS AND HAVE BEEN VERY SATISFIED. I HAVE ALSO WANTED A FOUNTAIN SINCE I USE TO WATCH REGGIE RACE, I HAVE BEEN AMAZED AT THE PRODUCT THAT THEY PUT OUT. I HAVE BEEN NERVOUS ABOUT THE POTENTIAL FINANCIAL PROBLEMS THAT FAUNTAIN IS UNDER, MERCRUISER INVESTING MONEY TO BAIL THEM OUT.

ARE THERE ANY BENEFITS OR DRAWBACKS TO EITHER COMPANY OR BOAT MODELS

Have you looked at Powerplay or Sonic
I have a Sonic for sale and a Powerplay
the Sonic is a 31ss 2002 and the Powerplay is a 1998
The Powerplay is on boats for sale .
And the Sonic is in classifieds it is the only 2002
If you need anything you can pm me.
Dave or call 770-827-7612

The Powerplay is a 28 . A true 28.

I HAVEN'T LOOKED AT EITHER ONE OF THEM, WHAT ARE THEY LIKE?

They are both great boats and will run in any water.
You need to look at the pictures that I have put out there. I have had Fountains and lots of power boats and I think the Sonic &Powreplay are great .

I'm on my fourth Formula, they're great boats. Formula number 3 was a 271 that I currently have for sale. Check her out - she needs a good home. Fountains tend to be a little faster, but its hard to beat the quaility of a Formula.

Welcome to the board

Are you looking at new or used?

HIT YOUR CAP LOCKS BUTTON OFF WILL YA

Just kidding, welcome to the board

Sonic makes a great boat and I have a nice 28 for sale.

Since Fountain just got that 18 million dollar loan, I wouldn't be concerned with their financial status.
