A 2004 Fountain 48 Express Cruiser built on a fiberglass double-stepped hull with triple Yammad 440 HP diesel engines delivering 1,320 total horsepower. The boat accelerates onto plane in under five seconds and cruises at 55 mph, with a top speed exceeding 65 mph. Arneson Surface Drives paired with new 7-blade stainless steel propellers provide performance and fuel efficiency of approximately 1.1 MPG at cruise.
The cockpit is designed for entertaining, with seating for up to 12 guests across three benches and a large aft sunpad. The entire deck and swim platform feature high-gloss teak. Below deck, the salon offers nearly seven feet of headroom and is fully air-conditioned. Two private cabins and two heads with showers provide comfortable accommodations for overnight use.
The helm has been rebuilt with carbon fiber Livorsi gauges, dual Garmin 7612 chartplotters, radar, sonar, AIS VHF, and Simrad autopilot with remote control. ZipWake dynamic trim control manages the ride across varying water conditions. Entertainment includes a JL Audio system with four amplifiers, four 10-inch subwoofers, and four pairs of components throughout. Apple TVs and flat screens are installed in multiple spaces.
Recent service work includes full engine maintenance by a certified Yammer dealer with valve adjustments and complete tune-up. All brass fittings in the engine bay have been replaced with stainless steel. Interior soft furnishings, mattresses, bedding, and custom teak work throughout the salon and cockpit have been completed. The boat has been maintained in freshwater use only.
