Research 2011 - Fountain Boats - 38 LX

You’ve heard the phrase; now experience the reality. The 38 LX is at once a red-hot fishing machine, an incomparable dive platform, and a cruising yacht that matches up to the sleekest offerings on the Italian Riviera. Oh...did we mention performance? As in 65mph—in a proven offshore hull that shoves aside seas that would stymie most yachts? Start with Fountain’s super ventilated Positive Lift hull, a direct outgrowth of decades of winning world championships under every conceivable condition. (All Fountain hulls are lineal descendants of our racing heritage.) Add triple Mercury Verado outboards. Wrap this around sheer luxury. The result is a go-there, do-it-all package you simply won’t find with any other boat. Blow off the wannabes. Get out to the best fishing grounds first. And do so more comfortably, more safely than with any other fishing boat on the water. Slide in over the best dive spots while the others are still pounding along way back beyond the horizon. Back into a slip at a world-class resort and feel the burning, envious stares. Triple engines. Triple threat. That’s the 38 LX. Only from Fountain.
