Default 03' 353 at Oakdale Boat Center, Oakdale, NY.

Does anyone happen to know, the 03' 353 with "Flame " graphics, and 500's, for sale at Oakdale Boat Center in Oakdale, NY.. I am interested, just trying to find out more info.. They are brokering the boat, but yet it is at another marina, about 20 minutes away, any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Larry

Have them get you the HIN off the back of the boat. Then contact Formula with that number and you can get the build sheet that lists all the build equipment, what dealer sold it and that path will turn up a lot of info.

Keep an eye on the hours! Remember, around 200-250, it's going to need the top end done! Does that include a trailer?

Like the description...3 blade propellers...

It has 250 hours. I ask them if the top end had been done, they did not know, they were going to ask the owner. There is no trailer. The owner bought it new. I think the price is high at $89,900.00, want do you guys think ?. It is a salt water boat, but they say it is mint, and meticulously taken care of. Cleaned and freshwater flushed after every use. One of my concerns, is the headers, due to the salt water. All my boats till now, have been freshwater, so that's another concern. The owner is suppose to have the service records. Some service was done by them, but some was done at a another marina. It didn't really seem that they new much about hi-performance boats. Larry

its a buyers market .....allow about 2K for top end work and you should be good....get the motors scanned .....If they have not been beat up (from the scan) I would put 50 or so more hours on it then do the top end ..... I have a Premier Trailer that is excellent and NEVER been in salt ....call me if your interested .....m

The Boat was always stored inside in Illinois winter and Summer ... and it has been in my buddy's Garage since we brought it down ....until last week when we finally got the bunks reconfigured on my Lift .... Its a covered Lift and also the boat is covered ...the trailer is back in my buddy's garage ....That trailer is sweet ....next to an Eagle is pretty much equal .....I'm not really sure I would even sell it ....It was a huge change from my 311 but I am adjusting to the stepped Hull .... It had 325 hours when I bought it and now is just over 340 ....haven't used it much ....when you get there give me call and we can talk ....m
