Default 29 Fever Discontinued?

I was just on the Fountain site and noticed the 29 not listed under "sport boats". I knew the 27 was stopped but not the 29

I'm dissapointed, the 29 was my only hope of a new purchase down the road as the pocketbook could afford..........

why? The 27 & 29 were th perfect boats to begin powerboating. I doubt I could have started with a 35.

I heard a rumor last month that Fountain was coming out with a new 30 Lightnining. The 30 Lightning is to become the entry level model. I am not sure if it is true but it would be pretty cool.
From what I was told the new Lightning would be a twin step with more freeboard and a larger cabin than the old 32 Fever.
It is supposed to be a shorter version of the NEW 35 twin step with an anchor locker, enclosed VacuFlush Head.

be a cool nicely balanced boat but I think youd want a little more HP than the what, 320hp that the stock Merc smallies put out......maybe put some whipples on them or a pair of 427 inch smallies or.......
