The 2009 Fountain 47 Lightning is a high-performance composite offshore boat powered by twin Mercury Racing 1075 engines that have been recently refreshed by MERKEL Racing Engines. With 191 hours on the meter, the boat carries serious horsepower and proven offshore pedigree. Recent work includes refreshed number 6 drives and new propellers supplied in hard cases. The engines are equipped with large K-plane trim tabs.
Exterior finish features custom paint in excellent condition, a tinted windshield with color-matched frame, stainless steel rubrail, bow rails, and pop-up cleats. A snap-on cockpit cover is included. The cockpit layout combines a spacious sunpad, split engine lid design, rear bench seating, and quad bolster configuration, with removable carpet. A color-matched speaker and subwoofer setup with Kicker Bluetooth receiver completes the entertainment system.
The helm features a color-matched dash with dual driver's Smartcraft displays and a passenger-side Smartcraft display, paired with a Garmin GPS chartplotter. Mechanical race-style drive and tab indicators, compass, and depth sounder are integrated into the design. The polished steering wheel comes with power trim on the wheel handle, plus a new-in-box replacement wheel with custom black and red stitching. All controls are polished with power trim functionality.
Below deck, a spacious cuddy cabin includes a salon seating area with mood lighting, a vee berth sleeper, galley with sink and stovetop, refrigerator, and an enclosed head with pump-out toilet, sink, and shower nozzle. The boat comes with an Eagle custom triple-axle trailer featuring a swing-away drive guard, custom wheels, and a matching spare tire.
