I cant throttle with my left hand so Ill have to figure something out there.īut I am not concerned by throttling the boat, not looking for a boat where i just lay into the throttles and keep em hammered, doing 100 plus in 6 footers and not hvae to bacak off, If im in the ocean, in 4-6 footers ya know the rolling toilet bowl type conditions, I dont have a problem throttling the boat and off, on, off, on, off, on, off, on ect thats no bother to me, (now to get the throttles moved to the right side is going to be the issue here) Well hearing that is a big plus, this company has a GREAT reputation and these guys running other brands, CIG, Patche, OL, ect will give you respect. You fall into a hole or its real snotty out (winter ocean gets rough, summer - more calm conditions)Ĭan this 42 handle this or a blast to the bahams or would a sonic 42 or something like that be more suited to what im looking for?Īs far as Im concerned, the 42 lightning with an arch is the best looking boat made, has the sexiest lines with the pointed angled windshield or fairing either or made!Ĭan I blast up the coast doing 60-65 in TRUE not ego made 6 - 8 footers or am I going to have my left arm twice the size of my right arm cause of all the throttling im going to have to do in this? I wanted to know do these boats handle the atlantic ocean well or no?

Looking with budget of around 100-105 thou for 42 fountain, twins or trip MILD blower engines, HP or XR or #3a's ect on Aluminum trailer, headers stainless steel, Full hyd steering options and an Arch HEHEHE Im talking old school here, 92-97 years with steps and without. OLDER ONES not the new ones with that curved glass formula looking windshields.

In my never ending quest to upgrade, I have heard both sides of the coin here on the 42 fountain lightning.
