Default Who else has made the switch??

I used to be a Fountain and OL guy! I saw how much fun you Cig. guys were having and I had to convert. I know that I am not alone. Show pics of what you used to own BC (before Cigarette).

pic 1 was a mistake.

pic 2 was my first Cig.

pic 3 was a mistake.

Actually, the Fountain was a good and reliable boat, just not a Cig.

Fountain was the bigggest mistake I ever made. Built with left over Home depot products. Plywood stringers with no protection against rot, more air than resin (supposed to be vacuum bagged) Not one piece of wood infrastructure has radiused edges or was fitted prior to being slapped into the hull. I could go on and on. The list is endless. Spent a fortune fixing it.

Maybe you have to buy a $600,000 42 to get a quality boat.
