38 1989 Fountain

http://kansascity.craigslist.org/boa/1225206113.html

Anyone know any info on this boat??? Thinking about taking a ride to look at it over the weekend. Any help would be great… any problems you may know about this year or model?

They are strong drives but old technology. Parts are getting harder to find for them and it really hurts resale value of the boat.

never seen the boat on the lake, down about every wkd. from 31 mm to the 12mm and Party cove.......and back. seems reasonable for a 38. TRS's, not going to say anything about them.... cause you know what happens when you do ! let us know how it looks and rides, good luck

I rafted up with these folks last weekend- super nice people. I think this is their 5th Fountain. Don't know about the drives, but the boat looked clean to me. Not a burned up beater from what I saw- worth a look if you want a lot of boat for not a lot of money.
