2008 Fountain 48 Express Cruiser SELLER NOW VERY ANXIOUS TO GET HOME AND FOUNTAIN SOLD NOW When Reggie Fountain designed this vessel he of course wanted speeds at least up to 50 MPH but he also wanted a boat that planes in five seconds at only 16 mph at 2000 RPM and gets 1 mpg through a top speed of 51.6 mph at 3400 rpm. Obviously conditions could change but the design parameters are there. This power is routed to triple Arneson surface drives with a hull that is backed up with a proper bow thruster. The interior furnishings and soft goods are at a properly high level. Two staterooms are available, one of which will accommodate occasional visitors. The forward master stateroom has a centerline queen size berth. The heavily upholstered aft sun cushion is easily converted to a comfortable sleeping area. Tables are available in both the aft cockpit area and in the main salon. A fully functioning galley will satisfy your cruising needs backed up by an 8kw generator. If sea conditions are favorable you can go from Miami to Bimini, have a two hour lunch and be home well in time for dinner. A sister ship with similar power set the world record from Key West to Cancun Mexico covering 405 miles in 8 hours and 36 minutes with a considerable sea running.
