Does anyone know anything about this boat. Was this a limited production or a custom one off boat?

Fountain came out with the 51 as a production boat for one year only i believe. It is the 47 extended with Fabio Buzzi drives. Ran in one a few years ago and they perform pretty good. Dont know to much about them though.

I saw either that Fountain or a similar one in 1999 ? in Cincinatti OH at a marina up on storage blocks. I remember it because I wondered why it had 3 drive shafts, other than that and these pics I have never seen a set up like this?? If you are sincerely interested in the boat call Fountain they keep records on every boat sold.

A guy in my marina in Dunedin and then on the Anclote River had a 51. It was awesome. It had 600 something HP engines and one day he passed me at over 100mph in 4-5 footers like I was standing still!

I think SC Marine in California has the boat for sale. I've seen it run... huge rooster tail ... kick butt on an 42 Cig with 900's and 6's. Interior keeps falling apart due to hull flex.
