What are all these names your talking about Lightningg, Excectutionor, Decanntor... it makes kindergarden look like MIT. I misevaluated the obvious debt of the Fountain line they've got deeper stuff than the Red Sox bullpen.

summer for 130k. I looked and the best I could do was 155k with 496's and
a few options.

Always liked that boat and the performance.
Always liked that boat and the performance.Kinda a lot to ask for - but it could be done relatively cheap, and would provide some nice fast, reliable, blue-water capability. . . . the Pacific can get kinda sh*tty sometimes.

As I said,the Ex was offered as a basic,price line boat. Everyone is
wineing about how it undermined the used market. Get over it!
The used market sucks for all boats. I think it was a good move
by Reggie. Alot of people who could never buy a new boat at 200k, plus,
have bought those Executioners. Then someday when times are better
maybe they move up into other Fountains. By the way, I dont think
it crashed the market on Other Fountains. I look in the OSO
classified all the time. I dont see anybody givin them away.
The average 4 year old 42 Lightning are all still in the 175k range.
