    Fountain

    My buddie had a 29 foot Fountain Walkaround with those mercs. We went offshore alot in that boat. It's a fast boat but it will beat you up the whole way at any speed. The helm was to far forward on the Walkaround model and by the time you got back to the dock everything hurt and you didn't...

    new looking 33 @ AC boat show

    I went to the Ocean City boat show yesterday and the selection of Gradys was a far cry from past years. Mostly center consols and dual consols, no walkarounds and several Gradys were already sold. Kinda dissapointing. :huh

    F-26 Tiger cat

    29-30 knots is a comfortable speed for me. I'm not sure if it is the most efficient speed, but I find that this is the way I tend to run her. '98 with 200's, my kind of boat, good luck! Thresher was delicious!
