Default 2007 Fountain 47LT - Twin 700SCI / SSM6 - REHAB @ Pier 57

This boat started out life with a simple black / white gel coat exterior. The dash board was equipped with a Mercury Racing System View Race Edition and Livorsi Monster Gauges. During its life until now the boat suffered from lack of exterior maintenance and ended up with an oxidized deck. A portion of the deck was wet sanded and buffed with an outcome far less than optimal. The decision was made to completely strip and rehab the boat. Paint was just the beginning for the “new” look that the Fountain would soon acquire. The Mercury Racing System View was swapped out for a more modern Vessel View Race Edition. The addition of a Mercury Gateway now makes real time engine data possible to view on the Garmin 740. The bilge was completely stripped of: engines / generator / transom assemblies and received a full recoat with Super White Bilge Kote. Antique halogen style bilge lights were swapped out for modern LED lights. The generator was fully serviced and sprayed with white to match the ‘new’ look of the boat. The engines were fully serviced while they were out. The engine pullies were freshened with a silver powder coat along with other bilge accessories. The stereo system received some upgraded more modern amps / wiring. The exterior received a fully paint job from Mitcher T & crew.

The boat should run in the upper 80 - low 90mph range when complete. The Mercury 700's will remain in stock form and power output. Most of what you see is cosmetic, the engines were inspected, fully serviced and have been run already.
