Description
1989 Fountain Fever 38 foot restored and ready to hit the open water!

Fountain Powerboats was founded by powerboat racing legend Reggie Fountain in 1979. The Fountain name has always been synonymous with speed and performance and this 1989 Fountain 38 Fever is no exception.

It is in nice condition. It has always been a freshwater boat, lovingly maintained, and has been stored inside the majority of its life!

Customized EFI Marine engines with larger exhausts and double-walled water-jacketed stainless steel CMI headers.
Upgraded IMCO steering that is hydraulic to the helm. It has performance Mercurser drives with four-blade stainless props, not TRS drives. The retired owner is a performance engine builder by trade. One talk with him and you will know why these motors are special.

The motors are truly performance built with reliability in mind.

Also, braided lines throughout. The swim platform, large sun pad, fridge, and head give this head-turner great accommodations for a day on the water

Extras like the electronic engine hatch, shore power, and a place to lay your head make this a great FAST fun boat.
All mechanicals in the bilge and all the in/outs have been replaced. The transom checks are as low as 13% moisture content. The gauges have also been replaced.

If you are looking for a Fun, Fast, easy-to-trailer Boat. This one is worth a look.

While we will always attempt to provide you with a TRUE representation of every vessel we market, during any purchase from Pop you will be encouraged to schedule an inspection from an independent, accredited surveyor and every purchase WILL ALWAYS BE subject to your satisfaction with the results from your independent survey and your own personal trial run.

Condition:
The hull is in nice shape. The cabin is dated, but with some TLC and new carpet, it would be nice. The cushions are in nice shape. The fridge works, but the sink is not hitched up.
The windscreen was replaced last year and two side glasses will come with the unit.

The cockpit has been reupholstered. The gauges have also been replaced.

Recent Maintenance:
All mechanicals in the bilge have been replaced along with all of the in/outs. 4 mufflers, brakes on the third axle and outside bunks on the trailer. Work is being done on the cabin interior over the winter.
