Ive seen a brand new 42 Fountain lose 4 MPH due to keeping it on a flat bunk lift.Even pulled the motors out and redynoed them thinking the motors were down on power.Turned out the bottom developed a 5/8 of an inch hook from not being supported right.

you can use gold medallions as shims on those fountains... works perfectly

Also....remember to trim the drives up before storage so that the hull doesn't spin out or barrel roll during the winter.
