Jeff,
Since you like your brothers Fountain so much, and Kevin claims he's got Magoo covered by at least a couple of mph, I thought you might interested in this... You could almost buy two of them if you sold the greenhouse for your asking price!

okay first that seems like a good deal, second does this mean we know the answer to the who is faster question? And third there is some good funny chit in this post Scot! Well done!

Well I wouldnt want to go smaller, I have a 31 and thats a 29.LOL

As for Kev and whos faster. I really dont have that answer but our MPH to HP ratio is sure alot different since I have 600 and he has 1300 and were about 1 MPH apart one way or the other. So I WIN wither way IMO.

I could always put another 300 on and still be way behind on HP and be 15 MPH faster.

You'll be fine.

You're going to love the #6s...they pivot the entire boat on them, you feel glued to the water...esp with that deep pickup in the rough..

The rooster tail is the only way the Sutphens can see you because you're so far ahead
Oh no I am going to have to cry and throw a fit now because someone posted something about me!.LOL


WHHHHAAAA WHAAAAAA WHAAAAAAA Oh sorry I was just acting like some of you thick skinned guys,LOL


BTW my OB;s turn in as well, and they are very close together. Havent really noticed any bigger issues than my other OB boat which turned out.
Gonna swap them back one day and try it to see what the difference is on the same hull

MPH to HP is different for sure...But weight to HP ratio brings the two boats back to being very similar, yours is light weight with light power, my boat weighs twice what your boat weighs and has twice the power....so, in the end, they are similar. A few MPH difference IMO.

Add another 300X?? Yea, for 15K more. I believe you already have more money in your boat than I do and its 10 feet smaller...and slower Plus drivability and balance of your boat would be way off. Your nose is already too light( and brown with Sutphen poop ).

You win either way? Dollar for dollar, 31 ft or 40 ft, high 70's or low 80's.....I dont see how you win in ANY way?
