Fountain 42 Poker Run 2012 vs Fountain Tournament Edition 2002 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Fountain 42 Poker Run 2012 vs Fountain Tournament Edition 2002 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The Fountain 42 Poker Run 2012 carries a rated maximum of 2 hp. Engine data for the Fountain Tournament Edition 2002 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Fountain 42 Poker Run 2012 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Fountain Tournament Edition 2002 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Fountain 42 Poker Run 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Fountain 42 Poker Run 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 42,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
