Research 2010 - Fountain Boats - 35 Lightning

The Cold War may be over, but things just got a whole lot hotter with the introduction of the all new Fountain Mercury 35 Lightning.

If anybody ever packaged a speeding bullet and called it a boat, this is it. It’s a slightly scaled down version of the Lightning hulls that have conquered the world of offshore racing – complete with all the high tech bells and whistles. Take for instance our staggered engine configuration, an all new high performance cockpit with carbon fiber dash and a newly designed cabin underneath. “This boat,” Reggie Fountain says, “is a sneak attack. It’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Want 100 MPH+ with 525’s? Put the power to the water through Bravo 1 XR SSM drives and this rocket sled will take you there – NOW! At an incredibly low price with incredible fuel efficiency. Leave the competition like they're standing still.

If you have a need for the latest technology, look no further – the 35 Lightning is definitely the boat for you!
