29 fever

[usedtoskidoo]

I wonder if I can get some help.

Im looking at a 29 fountain with twin 502s.

It seems to be in fairly good condition, I just dont know much about the boat or how it rides or performs.

I will do all lake boating and small excursions.

Thoughts?

Hey Bunny, might be a little butt heavy with BBC's back there. Pull my trigger here on the board has a 29 with twin SBC's. Maybe PM Doug and ask him for more info. He's in the Shwa.

Here's a link to Doug.

PS, welcome to Serious. Some really good reading around here.

I knew you would be around here. :moon:


Ya figured that it would ride pretty low in the back end. I just want something towable but big enough that it meets all the needs that I want it for. Which is mainly speed and sound!

Not buying for another year but I like to be informed.

I did check out a 29 outlaw and was not impressed. Did not seem as well made as the Fountain

BTW- over 110 yet?

I have the same boat as pullmytrigger but with bbc's. Its not the fastest, maybe 68 with 454/330's but seems to enjoy the rough stuff. It actually sits a lot higher then the 32's with that same package.

I think pullmytrigger has hull #2, I have #3

Well the one I am looking at has 502's.

I was actually looking at a single screw boat but the price and condish seem to be good on this one. I just worry about all that weight!

I have a 29 with a re-built 500 Efi I would cosider letting go. I have a baby due in April so I don't think I'll be boating much nexy year.

2x502's in 29' Fountain is perfect for your lake running even a little ocean runningWith the tabs down & drives in2 motors are better than 1!
