Who sits down while driving? I own a 42 Fountain non step ancient relic and I think it rides awesome and I have zero problem with left hand throttles/shifters as it leaves my beer drinking hand free at all times. The only complaints I have is no swim ladder, no front cup holders, and hoping no one cuts a foot or leg off on one of the sharp azz 15 blades (triples with 5 blades for those who may be confused) that I have hanging off my hanging on by a thread old school Bravos. As far as comparing it to a Cigarette, who cares, buy what you like and can afford. As far as those old school Bravos go.......spinning 5 blades behind triple 575hp normally aspirated at 5000 rpm's @ 80 mph(spins 5,400 with the four blades @ 85 mph) all summer long using Redline synthetic drive oil and not one hiccup. I do baby it on plane, but it gets on plane in a heartbeat without even using the tabs. From the time that I saw my first 42 Lightning I always wanted one, that's why I own one. Remember this.......skanks don't care if it's a Cigarette or a Fountain, they just wanna lay on your sunpad and drink your beer.

If you had half of WL's work ethic, your boat might be assembled.

On topic... I run my ELB with a 42 Fountain and a 38 straight-bottom Cig. They're both great boats. I'm continually impressed by the speed of the 42 with the 500's.

Look... just because I admire the hell out of your geriatric wit and charm doesn't mean I'm a homo. Now, my subscription to your NAMBLA site... THAT might make me a homo.
