2020 Fountain 43 NX

The 2020 Fountain 43 NX is a high-performance center console powered by four Mercury Verado engines delivering 1,800 total horsepower. Built on Fountain's Positive Lift double-step hull with composite core construction and infused composite deck and stringer system, this 43-footer carries a 12.25-foot beam and reaches speeds of 74 knots. The boat runs 320 hours and has current engine service.

The helm features a carbon fiber dash with triple Simrad 16-inch EVO3 displays, Halo 24-inch radar, and full engine monitoring. Joystick steering via Seastar Optimus electric-hydraulic system provides intuitive control. A comprehensive JL Audio installation includes an 800-watt eight-channel amplifier, 400-watt mono block, and ten M Series coaxial speakers with LED rings plus dual subwoofers. Triple hydraulic trim tabs manage the ride.

Accommodations center on a full cabin with a custom full-size mattress, Corian countertops, galley with microwave and refrigerator, and an enclosed head with vanity and holding tank. Reverse-cycle air conditioning and a 2020 Kohler genset support comfort underway. The 500-gallon fuel tank provides extended range.

Cockpit layout includes a U-shaped bow seating area, triple-wide helm seat with articulating armrests, double-wide chaise lounge forward of the console, and full-width aft bench seating. Three fish boxes with overboard discharge pumps, six rod holders, washdown systems, and an integrated dive door with ladder round out the fishing and water-sports package. Underwater RGB lighting and a 10,000-lumen LED light bar complete the lighting scheme.
