Research 2013 - Fountain Boats - 38 Tournament Edition

The 38CC, with its 10’ 6” beam, is Fountain’s largest center console. And what a bruiser!

This is the King Kong, Super Man, the world-beater of the genre, guaranteed to get you out to the best fishing grounds faster, more comfortably, and safer, than any other boat of its type. The hull is our state-of-the-art Super Ventilated Positive Lift design, born of decades of grueling competition in the dog-eat-dog world of offshore racing.

You’ve got world-champion offshore racer Reggie Fountain’s guarantee that you can’t find a better boat. The entire layout is the end result of the combined experience and knowledge of the highly successful Fountain fishing team. Did we mention just how you badly you can annihilate the competition on the run out? The 38 Tournament, powered by triple 300-hp Mercury Verado outboards, blasts through the seas at up to 75 mph.

Think about it.

That’s superhighway speeds on the water. Cruise at a fuel-sipping 42 mph, giving you an astounding 1.2 mpg and stretching your range to 321 miles with our standard 300-gal. capacity.
