Fountain 43 NX: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Fountain 43NX represents the company's largest center console model to date, blending luxury cruising with high-performance fishing capabilities. Derived from the hull design of the popular Fountain 38 Sport Fish Cruiser, this 43-foot vessel is powered exclusively by a quad-engine setup, either with Mercury Verano 350 or Mercury Racing 400R engines. While it retains fishing functionality, the 43NX is primarily tailored for the luxury cruising market, combining power, style, and versatility.

Exterior Design and Deck Layout

The 43NX features a thoughtfully designed exterior with a focus on both functionality and comfort. The gunnels slope down to small steps adjacent to the outer engines, with rigging tubes and hydraulic steering lines positioned close to the engines for efficient maintenance access. The transom bulkhead includes two walk-through doors for easy stern platform access and a dive door on the starboard side that reveals a four-step retractable ladder. A seven-foot-two-inch bench seat at the transom comfortably accommodates four adults, showcasing custom honeycomb-stitched upholstery and firm padding for comfort. The cockpit includes integrated rod holders that double as drink holders, padded knee bolsters for fishing leverage, and a large hatch beneath the cockpit sole providing access to the Fisher Panda 5KW diesel generator, plumbing, and storage. The hardtop is supported by powder-coated aluminum frames and is equipped with multiple rocket launchers, courtesy lighting, and spreader lights. An optional cockpit galley, convertible to a tackle center, includes a sink, electric grill, insulated cooler, refrigerated drawers, and storage drawers.

Interior Living Spaces

The cabin space beneath the console offers surprising comfort and utility, with a companionway providing 6 feet 7 inches of headroom. The compact galley includes a microwave, glass sink set in a solid surface countertop, and a refrigerator. The main electrical panel is conveniently located near the entry, managing the boat's five batteries—one for each engine and a house battery. The head compartment is well-appointed with a toilet, sink, storage, and a shower, all benefiting from ample headroom and ventilation via opening port lights. Forward of the cabin, a queen-size berth provides comfortable sleeping accommodations.

Power and Performance

Powered by four Mercury Verado Racing 400R engines, each delivering 400 horsepower, the Fountain 43NX achieves impressive performance metrics. The vessel has a beam of 12 feet 3 inches and a dry weight of 15,800 pounds, with an estimated test weight of 17,288 pounds including fuel and crew. It reached a top speed of 73.4 miles per hour at 6,650 RPM, while its best cruise speed was 35.8 miles per hour at 3,500 RPM, consuming 35 gallons of fuel per hour and yielding a range of approximately 460 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. The hull’s positive lift double-step design provides a stable, flat ride with good wave penetration despite the bow riding slightly lower than expected at speed. Acceleration is rapid, with 0 to 20 miles per hour achieved in 6.3 seconds and 30 miles per hour in 8.2 seconds. The quad-engine configuration also contributes to nimble handling and responsive throttle control.

Private Accommodations and Bow Seating

The bow area is designed for both comfort and socializing, featuring elegant chaise seating with headrests, movable armrests, fixed footrests, and cup holders. Plush wrap-around seating lines both sides of the bow, with storage compartments beneath cushions and in the sole. Powder-coated bow rails provide secure handholds, and the aft ends of the bow settees incorporate soft-edge, top-access drink coolers or optional live wells. USB ports are conveniently located under the bow seating bolsters. The seating arrangement accommodates six adults comfortably, and with the addition of a removable table, the bow transforms into a social space suitable for up to eight people.

Conclusion

The Fountain 43NX successfully balances luxury, fishing functionality, and high performance in a spacious 43-foot center console. Its quad Mercury Racing 400R engines deliver impressive speed and maneuverability, while the thoughtful design of both exterior and interior spaces emphasizes comfort and utility. From the detailed upholstery and cockpit galley options to the well-appointed cabin and bow seating, the 43NX caters to discerning boaters seeking a versatile vessel capable of both serious fishing and elegant cruising.
