Who can explain why Reggie stopped building the 32? I've heard there was not enough demand because the 35 with same power was not much more $$$? Also I heard the 35 was just as fast? I like the 32 size wise... I'm considering one I found but I'm being told its not enough bigger then my 29 to bother... but I like the size of my 29 as well :confused: .... only reason I'm considering it is its 5 years newer with alot more motor and the condition is equal to mine... not a big price difference... what do you FOUNTAIN guys think?

PS - At this time I really am not interested in any other Brands so please don't bother to tell me to look at this or that "Other" brand.... Thanks ;)

just kidding my friend, I know how you feel when that happens!

I have to admit I always liked the 32 also.

I was able to run only 1 and it had 502 mpis and was very pleased with the way the boat handles. very fun boat to run

Every foot makes a big difference in ride. The 32 is fun, meaning you still have to drive it, versus my 38 that just rides with little excitement. My 29, you really had to drive it over 70. I do know of a very clean 1999 32 with twin 500's-sort of rare as most had the 502's-for around 80k. It will run mid 80's. Includes a very good trailer, Eagle I think.

I had 32 before my current 35. I liked it. The 32 had 540s and would run in the low 90's. I can't tell a difference size wise on the 35 except for the engine compartment. If you decide to get a 32, get one with a race fairing instead of a windshield. The fairing makes it much easier to climb over when tying up or docking.

Good point... but you can't see through it & I drive sitting down ;) Thanks for the input... you're the first I heard say they couldn't see much difference for a 32 to a 35.... I've been in 32's & really didn't see much difference from my 29... so I gotta believe you....
