I have a 35 Fountain, Lightening Classic. Absolutely love the boat. I have 525's SC's in her, fastest I've had it is 79.9 gps. Handles the slop at LOTO with ease, cruising around 35 -40 mph. This is my 3rd Fountain, and I really like it. I do think mine could handle more power, she just gets skipping across the water, and there's nothing more to give.
I think it would make you a great first power boat, good luck and let us know how it turns out.

hi! I have had a lot of great boting with a 35 Executioner (same boat). The finish is just as good as on the new boats. I would love to see some pictures of it as it is so good....
Good luck! You can't go wrong with this boat!!!!!

I got 2 25's mounted n the engine bay. I am worried not about fuel but about 1 motor only . at least w 2 you have a way back if you blow up or something. With your boat ..that would make 2 betwwen the two of us ..We should head out there togather..60 gals should do it no problem from what I figure.

Just got back from Havasu and looking at the boat. It was everything as described and then some. The attention to detail was extremely amazing, and the people were great to deal with. We took the boat out all day on Saturday and probably put over 100 miles on it, that's how you test drive a boat. Just wanted to say another Thank You out to Tom and his wife for opening there arms and treating us like family. We WILL be coming back someday as Lake Havasu is awesome.

Thank You. So far it feels great.
I can not attach pics because I am a rookie I guess, you will just have to click on the link on the 1st page to see it for now.

Let me know if you decide to give it a try twards the end of summer, my boat will be in Havasu, and we can definately try it out. I'd likely ask a friend of mine from SCOPE to ride shotgun, for experience sake.
