I'm pretty sure that was Mark Borgeouis' Regal you are refering to.

The Meridian 441 Sedan looks similar to this one and others I have seen on the lake. http://www.irwinmarine.com/new-boats...ian/441-sedan/ I am wondering just where it will be moored. I bet they install the upper deck bridge after going under the channel bridge.

My guess is Mountain View Yacht Club as Irwin is there. I bet they install the upper deck bridge after going under the channel bridge.

He owns MB Tractor as well as the giant McMansion that faces Eagle Island. Also owned the rather infamous "Summa Humma", a 47' fountain that used to tear up the lake.

CrownRay · 06-25-2013, 09:30 AM

Really? Come on. Do you need something that big to go the 20 minutes across the entire lake?

It's just like the guys I see at the public dock at our club on the coast...the guys who drop in a 15 ft POS to go out to Jeffries'

I remember that boat. Not as cool as the "Fountain of Youth" though

Here she is back in 2000:

SIKSUKR · 06-25-2013, 11:36 AM

The Summa Humma had triple 630's. Wonder where that boat ended up.

SIKSUKR · 06-25-2013, 11:53 AM

Just an fyi..The standard power in the 47' Fountain is twin 700 Mercs. You can option up to twin 1075. Even the twin 700 is VERY thirsty. Cruise at 50 using 57 GPH or how about WOT(90 mph) drinking 116 gph. Yikes! $400+ an hour for fuel.

I just found it in South Carolina. $99,000 sounds very cheap.

That is very cheap for that boat...Hmmm, that would make a great island boat! If only it would fit on my dock

Let's chip in and buy it for an artificial loon nesting site. We can put her in Winter Harbor.

Well, we will have to give them the rules up front so they will understand what is expected of them! No more decibels than the hoot!!

chunt · 06-25-2013, 07:13 PM

The boat will end up at MVYC. Were it will be docked, restricts boat travel through MVYC channel for all of the members of MVYC. This slip has a a 44ft length limit (LOA) defined by the covenants of the property, but with IRWIN as the management company and the profits generated by the sale of this boat, it has been allowed to be docked in slip A1.

With a boat at the visitor dock and boats coming and going side by side someone is going to hit the bow of that boat.

Thank you MVYC.

NHBUOY · 06-25-2013, 10:47 PM

Methinks that, by the "way" Irwin's actually measure for compliance (for everyone) the LOA, THAT particular 47' Fountain is probably in compliance of the 44' rule. May even be under.

CHUNT. Like the handle. I think.

I believe he's referring to the new 49' yacht and not the Fountain...

NHBUOY · 06-26-2013, 09:00 AM

...oops..my bad...

fatlazyless · 06-26-2013, 11:10 AM

....ya know....that 47' Fountain, the Summa Humma, was a great boat to watch....what a local spectacular, spectator loss that it got sold away off the lake about ten years ago...would be nice to see it come back to the big lake!

...seems like it could be a good boat for the wrestler who's building the incredible, log cabin mansion now on Meredith Bay, what with the price of gas and all?

I found that the other day to.... Prior to South Carolina, it spent some time in NJ.....

I think they listed that it had over 200 hours at this point, which indicates it probably ready for a valve job and other maintenance activities that are required to keep high performance engines running and performing..... So 99K is probably pretty fair..... Considering all maintenance work is going to be X 3

Needs a valve job at only 200 hours!!??.... Really??... I don't disbelieve you it just sounds crazy. I never knew they were they required that kind of major internal maintenance at such low hours...

It's true. Those are very high performance engines.

Even the Merc "blue" motors such as the 525 are meant to have the top ends serviced every few hundred hours.

Depends on how hard they are driven. Wear increases with the square of speed (in RPM) and internal heat (a function of how much HP is being generated) beats on the valves making them "tulip". Run those engines at 3000 RPM and they'll likely run for 1000 hours without any issues. Run them at WOT, they'll likely need a top end overhaul at 50 hours or less.

...and at 3000-rpm the boat could be doing about 45-mph in the daylight....plus the lower revs will save big on gas too!
