Looking at a 27' 2003 27'Fountain for South Puget Sound area and Eastern Wa lakes,etc.Stock 496ho, Is there enough room behind the passenger seat to fit a heat exchanger? Haven't had a chance to measure, but figure you guys would know.
Thanks in advance.

If you can find one with a stock 496ho it will already have a heat exchanger. The 496 is standard with closed cooling.
Happy shopping!

Rak Rua you are a fountain of info and never cease to amaze me .
I am still looking for my right 27' fever and have found two that I am going to look at in the New Year after they get uncovered.
A '98 with a 502MPI and a 2004 with a 496Mag HO. Would they both be stock freshwater cooled. I hadn't thought about that issue

Thanks for the kind words, I really don't know much compared to most of the guys on OSO but I've been around boats all my life and I'm always reading and learning. Boating for me is more than just driving a boat. Some people do crosswords or read American Civil War history or follow the Japanese porcelain doll market but I'd rather read a factual boating story any time! There's so much first hand knowledge posted on here everyday it would be a shame not to read it all.
Hope you get the Fountain you're after, they're awesome boats.
