1989 Formula 206
Banana Late 80's Formulas

I jsut wanted to take a moment to say that Formula really had their heads on straight in the late 80's

I am in the process of helping a friend look for a first boat. He is looking for a boat around the same year as my 89. Nothing we see from any other brand even comes close to what you get from formula. The fact that formula didn't use wood in the cockpit is great because I have nothing rotting as compared to everything else we see. He tells me that nothing compares to mine as far as looks and quality. Puts a big smile on my face!!!! I know i made the right choice!
Enough said!!! thanks for listening!!

Re: Late 80's Formulas

Got to agree. Except my '89 DOES have wood behind the upholstery.

Nice color Griz
