Default Looking for a 27' or 29' Fountain Fever

Looking to buy a 27 or 29 foot Fountain Fever preferably with a 500 or 525 EFI in turn key condition. Will be running the boat off coast of South Florida and intercoastal. Anybody know of any for sale or does anybody prefer the 27 or the 29? Looking for good info on these boats.

Thanks

Ronnie

Thumbs up

Contact SDFEVER here on OSO. His 27 is immaculate and it already has a Raylar HO600 we just freshened and it runs like a "raped ape" ! He just posted some recent pictures in the tech section under Dana to CMI exhaust conversion.

Best Regards,
Ray @ Raylar

The 29 is a much bigger boat. The 29 has stand up bolsters while the 27 is a sit down boat.

The 27 does have stand up bolsters. It not a sit down boat. Still would go with 29

What are the advantages of the 29 over 27?
