VIDEO...85+MPH Fountain 48 Express Cruiser!!!

[phragle]

2100+ hp can get a bayliner to do 85 so the point is... :biggrinjester:

It looked strange with the rooster tail.that speed is impressive the hull had a lot of contact

very strange. Kinda eery but cool. that thing must weigh 30000lbs.

 

[Bobcat]

[Tank]

I dont care how successful or smart reggie fountain may be.....He opens his mouth he sounds like a f*ckin retard!!! fountain powerboats needs to put him in the retirement home and revoke his public speaking license!

What crap are we talking about? Fountain media? I enjoyed the video.

Yes. Everything fountain does is wonderful.

Still a cool boat!

 

[cigdaze]

Did that boat end up in St. Pete, FL?...I think I know that boat (or one just like it).
Trips, with Arnesons...

???

 

[Jassman]

The latest version were in 06-07 Trip Yanmars 485hp and Arneson asd-8's..Latest were replaced with the Cummins same hp, less smoke, and about 1-2 mph slower..That looked like an Arneson Rooster:sifone:

 

[getchasum111]

[Westcoast]

I for one liked the video....and for that matter don't mind when they (fountain media) post cool productions.

 

[ROGUE]

85 wow, thats got me beat by a mile, my pig will never come close to that, nor do I want it to, scary enough now.

I thought it was cool too............ Would like to see a magazine comparison of that 48 EC vs. the 49 Grand Sport.

2 different animals..The Fountain has a larger beam...Down below is massive compared to the 49 Cig. There is actually less room in the 49 Cig cabin compared to my 43 Nor-tech. The beam is very nice in the Cig compared to other powerboats. The new fairing was nicely done at the show, impressive...but how do you get to the cleats on the side?????just a few observations. Quality is better also on the Cig. vs the Fountain. Both were priced about the same, difference being there is a third cummins in the Fountain.

 

[fund razor]

Is there a site called "serious express cruisers?"

This should be on their first page.

 

[95south]

we did look at that boat at the show last week, nice boat, $725k out the door, good speed for its size
a lot $$ , resale would be an issue

 

[fund razor]

Now the serious Fountain spamming has begun.

 

[TSPM]

S P A M ......... :cuss::cuss::cuss:

 

[45Sonic]

Just think we were looking at one (without the 700's) at the Annapolis show. Impressive boat

 

[phragle]

one word..sunseeker! but your definitly gonna pay for the pimp factor. wonder what the big beak would do with turbines, might be more fuel efficient?definitly lighter and less maint....

 

[nauti1]

i saw that boat the first time it hit the water. bad a$$!! triple 700's and #6's. it was loud till they put mufflers on it. that thing is a rocket.
