- In this video, we take the 2022 Fountain 38 SC on the water and achieve a top speed of 103mph! This marks history as the fastest center console in its class and she still has more in her! Stay tuned for additional speed testing. www.grandermarine.com

As a previous Fountain owner, I can tell you their beauty is they feel “locked in” & safe, even at WOT speeds. I’ve ran lots of other offshore CC boats that ~can~ run 75-80mph, but they can be unpredictable in the last 15-20 mph whilst approaching their top speed.
Would have LOVED to see what the scenery looked like at 100mph..man that is hot!!
WOW!!! Congrats guys! Awesome video, too! 🔥🔥
absolutely love this
Great job Propbender!
Awesome boat, congrats! and whoever did the production on this video did fantastic
i would rather not seeing a video of his dash going 100 but still pretty cool
Damn you guys always come thru for fountain !
WOW thts fast tht boat looks amazing great job fountain
Do the engines have the sport master lowers with 5-blade CNC propellers? If not, you’d get quite a bit more top end out of it.
I've just found my dream boat . Unreal !
What a time to be alive
Best I've ever seen was a 43' Open Midnight Express do 98 mph with quint 450s. That is fast.
That’s 5 mph SLOWER than dude just went
@@curranjohnson7489 also a boat that's 5 feet LONGER, and HEAVIER, and even though its got another motor it has way more drag in the water. Also that was a standard edition, the carbon runs over 105mph.
Not to mention that midnight you are talking about is a FULL CARBON FIBER hull…. I could only imagine if this hull was full carbon!🚀🚀🚀
yes that big heaver biàt
That is insane. Wow
Nice Job guys 😊
Impressive!
Great video guys. Gotta get back to hurricane hole and film again with peter miller
Outstanding
150 gallons of fuel.....ever seen that movie "gone in 60 seconds"?
Awesome boat guys!
The screaming sound of the quad 450rs live in my head rent free.
Awesome!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸
NICE!!!
bravo.Thenks
I'm going to buy one of this boat i love it..
That's amazing
Want to learn how to set up and run a boat? Talk to Chris Bazor. Cool video, love the flyby at 3:14. Good work you guys
Most people might not know you, but I do. We grew up on the same street !!!
WOW what a RIDE on a Damn Good Boat !! What else can one say ??
Great!!!
Holy smokes 😍😍
awesome 450x4🏇🏇
Looks nice outside, but do the wooden stringers still rot as fast as they used to on Fountain boats?
BUT... it was a cute, action packed video to enhance the cruise.
Reggie would be proud!
I am sure he is... He is still alive ya know? He already made a post about this on his FB.....
I need one of those
What a damn tease!!!
Insane
I was thinking 80+a couple then he said 100 . That boat is FAST !
This reminds me of Fountain’s recently released 42 footer video where I thought it’d be a 120mph boat. Then, Fred said it was a 150mph boat, from the factory. It’s unbelievable what they’re achieving, these days.
@@kenroot5682 yep . gawd 150 , I'll take a look .
Fountains are known for riding on top of rough water, not throught it. That's why they can do it at high speeds! I'll take one of these bad boys anyday over the competition out there.
yes all 0plàñ8nñg humll do that jußt ñót fiyñtiñbes dep v
Oh here we go...
WOW !!!
Gotta look up Grander Marine.
Must have a HUGE gas tank and WOT that has to be drinking fuel fast. So awesome!
My friend has a 36 2004 Fountain with 3 x 300 HP Mercurys. When he's doing 75-80, it's drinking 110-115 gallons an hour.
@@nchomestead7860 wow thats insane and WAY more than i would of guessed, crazy!
@@1973superdad yea so quad 450s, easily drinking 150+ gallons an hour probably.
Look at the upper right of the screen at 2:18 - 175 gal/hr
yes loyt 9f gas
Top!!!
Propbender !!!!
Price range please?
I like the lines that Fountain boats have. The way bow curves down slightly. Sexy Boats
Look great, have you check out the new 44 CC Hayarri over 91 miles made in uae with beautifully done finishing and performance
buy it
How fast in a 3 to 5 foot seas?
Love to see the fuel figures.
Gauges in video shows about 43-44 gallon per hour PER engine at top speed. So 175 gallon per hour in total or so.
10 gallons per mile
660 litres per hour. Ouch!
Gauge in the upper right corner is showing ~175gal/hr burn at 101mph
When you can afford this boat, fuel cost is idle chatter...
I need one
James bond's boat😄💪😍😍😍
Greta: HOW DARE YOU!!!
I've don't 78mph in the water and that's some scary shit imagine 103
I am impressed. Wil a Harry Barry $20,000 buy one ?
Thats crazy gotta be burning 4 gallons per mile
yes
WOW
Bad Ass !!
Should name the boat: Speedy Gonzales 😎👌
When only the Best will do..MERCURY
Ok that’s fast AS FUCK
We don't really care much about those speeds. What we did notice is the Fuel used gauge, 259 Gallons. Whoa!!!!!!!!!1
yes
38' fountain or 43' midnight Ex. I'm sure the price ain't the same either
89 octane?
Insane huh ?!!! But center console lovers & fanatics should be drooling deliriously desiring that awesomely fast masterpiece !!! HIIIH3!!!
For those of you who can afford it,
grab it while you can, folks !!!
KIIIIIH3!!!
WHAT'S THE PRICE OF THAT SIZZLING SPEEDING BEAUTY ???
PLEASE, SHARE INFO.
THANK YOU.
Not enough padding and deep plush upholstery in the bow area. Some boat captains love to flip fry pan their bow riding passengers when waters get choppy.
Noice...
259 gal used in under 2 hours
yes
State of the art boat? Five agm batteries? Too cheap for lithium and save 300lbs?
yes
How to get to the fishing spot the wucikest
That’s a bad dude rite there now! 😎🤙🏼 Let’s go Brandon!
I love Biden
@@Brizzleeeification you’re pathetic
Fuck yes
Uhhhhh Nortech 390 did 101 with full hard top and quad 400’s on jack plates and that’s a boat with a sleepable cabin.
Video?
@@GranderMarineElberta plenty of info out there, it was back in 2016/17. It was hull number 101 and they are up to 300 now.
@@KMT15 From what we have seen, it was Hull 100 and we've read the articles. Still have not seen video proof
@@KMT15 we owned and sold hull number 101 390 Nor-Tech, quad 400Rs, boat was about 3000 lbs lighter than this 38. Pulling every trick in the book with 2 knot current and extreme tail wind, AV gas, removed the anchor, 40 degree weather, etc. Our fastest peak speed recorded was 94.9 mph and not holding. With a light load and good conditions she was 88-91 mph boat. In the fountain video we had no tricks, no current, cross tail wind and she held speed. The fountain also was rock solid at speed, lots of shakiness in hull and top on the Nortech at the higher speeds.
I owned and sold number 101... Best fact base reply ever... Great interaction interesting reading
How many gallons per foot? Now try some 600's on there!
It will be slower there not made to go fast there more for bigger boats. Obs you can put it on this boat but it will me slower
In 2016 Nor tech hit 101 in their 39 sport quad 400R’s
Well, he did say something like "first on video" , but yeah.
Yeah i was just going to say nortech did this years ago with a 390 sport
Video?
Y'all are tripping. This guy owned a 390 NT with quad 400Rs years ago. Pretty sure it was good for low 90s at best, he had it on video at the time. The F38 is almost certainly the faster hull.
Moreover it's not much of a stretch to say the NT hull likely has some Fountain DNA because Alden spent years racing and working with Reggie before he started with NT.
That boat was partially complete and had no hard top (much less air drag) so it's not a fair comparison
Dudes on empty too
High speed only in calm seas !!!
MUSTN'T BE DAREDEVIL TO BE TEMPTED INTO CHOPPY WATERS !!!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
8 bucks a gallon have at it 😂
Remember the right whales. Keep your speed under 10 mph.
Alex m* 8 mo ago,
Aquaplane if you insist on fishing !!!
I respectfully say to differ, but pretty don't cut it!
Be better without music..lets music by the engine...
All the music is unnecessary. I just wanted to hear the engine
this guy does not know how to make good content. loud ass cinema trailer music playing while this guy takes a video of his dash cant even see what 100mph looks like
Who gives a crap about fishing after watching this
I bet a aircraft would be more efficient and faster than this boat.
That was a deduction to make. A car would probably be in that same position.
Early boat bragging...omg come on already...turn it loose!!
