A new boat has shown up in our pool. Local dockside chat has it as a 40+ ft Formula.bowrider with plenty of space below deck. Four 300 hp BRP 'Rudes. Rumor puts it at $1.1M

Rumor is you can get it with four 400 hp Mercs, if 1200 hp isn't enough.

I made a search of Formula's web site and could not find any info. Can anyone fill us in?

tpenfield I recall you writing you had 2footitus, looking for a larger Formula BR. ....here you go.

Look at the Super Sport Crossover. Only Mercs are listed, 4X450's - 1800 horses for the 430. The boat in your pics may be from when Evinrude was still making motors.

The $1.1 rumor is probably a bit high

There is a new, 2019 model currently for sale at $799k

since Volvo took over Seven Marine, Intrepid cant get motors any more..... something at Volvo is @#$%@#$% broken because they are not following up on orders.

The old moving production to a new and “better” facility trick.....

Lived through two of those adventures with my prior company losing a large percent of the US customer base in the process.

Fortunately for me, they lost the business to a company just 30 minutes down the road from my house ;)

Sun Hydraulics just did that under the old CEO's short stint.

apparently if you ignore all your loyal customers, they go elsewhere......

I wouldn't refuse that Formula if you were offering to GIVE it to me!
