I'll trade you straight up my 22 Velocity with new motor, floor, and interior for your 42 Fountain.

I just found this pic taken in Oklahoma where I bought the boat

 

[Ratickle]

Grand Lake ?

 

[Bobcat]

Nice boat. That was a bit of a drive home !

 

[45calibur]

.

it was in afton Oklahoma , not sure of the name of the lake

I paid a guy to tow it back


here is a pic of the boat and the tow guy arriving in ny at tanner park to launch it

I really dislike the stripes on my boat

over the winter I am having them removed

I want it all white like the one in the pic below


(I think this one might be a 38 Lightning but it shows the look I am going for)

Long time friend bought a Formula from Arrow Head Marina , Grand Lake. He went with me, I took Heidi's Excursion. Had to laugh, it was 999 miles there!

I have a very heavy 28 with similar power and bravo ones. I've had good luck with the combination, I just don't do hole shots.

I don't see why you won't have good luck too. Not like you will be racing.

I'm not known as a Fountain guy, but I really like your boat. :cheers2:

Have a name picked out for a completely whited out boat? You'll be like a Penn State game whiteout

that is where this boat was kept , too funny , he kept it under the awning/garage setup in a slip on a lift

does the background of the pics below look familiar to you ?

I am keeping the name that was on my old boat

G- Spot

everyone loves the G-Spot

 

[fund razor]

Heck, I like your old boat, too.

We looked at the Excalibur 45's and the only issue was the speed wasn't what I was looking for. Terri actually liked it better than the BT.

You were really talking about the boat, right?

 

[fund razor]

If you mean me, yes.

But heck, I like Grand Banks trawlers too.

 

[45calibur]

they aren't fast but they are fast for what they are

mine only had 502 415 hp stock and it hit 51 on gps

 

[fund razor]

That's smoking fast for a full-on cruiser.

There's a couple of Formulas in my area - 370SS and a 400SS, and they both seem to hit around 60.

I'm thinking huge wake !!!!!!
