New Formula Owner!

OK, I have wanted a 353 Fastec for years and I finally was able to pull it off! I am so excited I can't stand it. I told my wife last Fall that if we could pull off selling our old boat, now would be the time to buy the Formula that we have always wanted. I really never thought it would happen, but I guess it was just meant to be. This is our second Formula; last one was a 23 open bow many years ago. I have always loved Formulas. Tried many other brands but never found any better quality.

Our new ride is an '05 with 525's! I had to change my OSO name to "Bad Bird" from "REDWENVY" because we are no longer "red with envy" of 353 owners. So needless to say, this is my first post as a new Formula owner. LIFE IS GOOD!

Struggling to figure out how to post a picture of the boat.....help!

Congrats Bad Bird, the artist formally known as Redwenvy. Is that the boat that was at Commonwealth? If so, you got yourself a beautiful bird. Should be a blast with that power. Enjoy!!!!

Awesome boat with great engines! Congrats! I just upgraded my 311 (another awesome boat) to a 353 with 525's last year so I know exactly how you feel Bad Bird... I'm STILL pinching myself. Now all we need is better weather so we can all get out there!

Congrats and welcome to the Formula family, I remember the excitement of my purchase of our Formula like it was yesterday, it's great feeling.

You got yourself a great set up with 525's. Looking forward to seeing pics.
