2024 Fountain Bluewater 38 Tournament Edition

You've never seen a more competition-ready fishing machine under 40-feet than the Fountain 38 Tournament Edition. Period. The breakthrough 38TE mixes Fountain performance with every fishing feature imaginable. Setup so anglers can speed into action when things get fast-and-furious, 52-rod holders are strategically positioned for instant access. Four in-floor fish lockers and a massive 380-quart coffin box cooler ensure there’s no shortage of places to ice the day's catch. Fountain's right-sized tackle center includes storage compartments, a rigging center, a removable cutting board, and 7" Lure trays.
