Another thought, I drove a 35 fountain ts lightning with sxs 525s a few years ago. Ran the boat all weekend and found that around 75/78 plus it really became a drivers boat. Everything had to be right. I was warned of this prior and honestly scared myself once as I was used to a 42 that you couldn't hurt. No seat time in a 38 beak but I'm sure Forbus can chime in on his. Sounds like besides being a Canadian skank magnet, it runs hard
Hell, you can even pull it with a tundra vs the Cig requiring Peterbuilt 379, double-framed, c16 Cat, running super singles with chrome mudflap girls on the back

Thats got nothing to do with anything really... it's been on there since they were.....why change a logo that everyone knows, Cigs goal was not to race but to build a good boat overall and that they do well, thats a fact

If you want speed go with the 07 38 Lightning, 07 fountain switched to full stagger, adds 6-10 mph(from what I have been told) but takes away cockpit and cabin space. I think you should take the 35 out of equation and be looking 38/42 Fountain vs 38 TG. Room goes to TG easily. Ride is a debate, depends what you are looking for and what you boat in.
