Active thunder vs 29 fountian

[jdoss]

Take a look at the 28 saber, they are building one with twin 520's Merc right now but a single merc 520 would also be a nice boat. With the old 502, 415 HP it ran mid 60's. also, no platform or beak, a true running length surface with a deep freeboard. Also, you could do a ob boat and make a larger cockpit.

That is another good choice for a full 28' with rough water performance and no dog with a single.

I am looking for the biggest single engine boat that runs Great in rough water has speed, the biggest cabin and the family can enjoy. I had a 38 fountain express cruiser that I docked in a marina. I want to trailer and not have the expenses of twins. I was set on a 29 fountain but a friend steered me to Active Thunders and Volacity. He also recommended this web site for information. One of these days these a boat manufacture will make a different speed boat and get rid of the sun pad and put more efficient seating. So many people sell because not enough cockpit room. I would Greatly appreciate some information.

Are you looking for a new or used boat? I can help with either.

The first 29 Active Thunder with the DDC patented single step hull is in tooling as I type this. We have a few people interested, but have not made any commitments with anyone until we pop the boat out of the mold. We are planning to put a 565EFI in the boat unless something changes.

There is also a 28 Active Thunder that belongs to a friend/customer with a 525EFI in CT that I believe would sell his boat.

My contact info is below. Hit me up with an email and we can chat.


Thank you for the heads up on this thread Ratickle.

I was hoping you may know of one close up there for him to take a peek at. You can't appreciate the difference in size without being in one, even though the Fountain is sold as a 29.

Personally . if i was to go with a 28 i would go with either a Sabre ( which is built like a brick $hit house ) or an Apache 28 brave which also is built very well , just my 2 cents .

Both really good boats. I don't think either has the cabin room of the AT though. I'd sure like to have the three side by side for review at the same time....

I don't think that's 3 to 4's anywhere. But nice spacing on nice little 2 to 3' swells.....

Well, any decisions or more reviews yet?

There's a Pantera in Port Monmouth, NJ for a great price. You'd have to make sure it wasn't sitting at the bottom in a storm though....
