Once into one, Fountian SC's are hard to get out of. Kind of a limited market.

Do you mean hard to sell? The seem like they have the best of both worlds with speed and room. I did find one with twin 780 hp engines and that sounds like fun. They have room for 2 more in the cockpit which is nice but the outside of the Sonic is much better looking.

I have owned my last fountain for 10 years so I want a boat I will be happy with more than resale.

I would prefer the right Sonic but I just don't seem to be finding it.

I was told by 2 dealers that they are slow to move. I don't think as many performance boaters are interested in them as the lightning models. Its a boat I would probably consider, as would a lot of Sonic owners as cabin/amenities/overnighting are important to us.
A 386 has much nicer lines.
And if looking for a bigger better cabin, I would prefer Black Thunder (love the 46EC)

Why did this deal fall apart??? Please share?? I have had mixed feelings about dealing with lab marine, but would love to hear another opinion? Their asking price is less than your range??
