99 Fountain 31 TE

Considered by pros to be the premier fishing boat on the market, Fountain's 31 Center Console is the perfect blend of performance, features and styling. Equipped with everything fishermen could possibly need or desire, the 31 Center Console is maneuverable, agile and fast. It also has the capability to do overnight duty with the roomy cuddy. Hull design has everything to do with the popularity of the Fountain 31TE. Like all Fountains, the 31 TE is engineered for unmatched stability while fishing, combining a low center of gravity with a beam that's perfectly matched to the boat's centerline length. Fountain is one of the few manufacturers to use high-density foam, Interplastic vinyl ester resins, and multi-directional fiberglass, and then laminates its hulls and decks together, in a process that is racecourse proven. Other features include: stringers and bulkheads glassed into place for superior structural integrity, heavy-duty trim tabs and hydraulic steering; complete instrumentation; huge insulated fish box with overboard drains; 50-gallon circulating livewell; rod holders; and a self-bailing cockpit liner. The end result is a hull design that needs less horsepower at on-plane speeds, which translates into an extended range and big savings at the fuel dock. If you are ready to move up to the top of the class, without spending a fortune, this 31 TE has been well maintained and lift kept. This may well be one of the better values in the fishing boat market today. Cuddy cabin w/V-berth, rod storage, fluorescent lighting. Twin Optimax 225s. 4 Blade Bravo props.
