I know this is an old topic, but I need the answer as well.
I contacted Scott at Formula boats and this was his reply.
Now we all know.
Hi, Blaine,
We do not have a sling drawing for the 382 (nor for most of the boats we produce)—just put the aft one a few (2-3) feet forward of the transom, and the other just forward of where the windshield and deck meet, and you should be fine.
Thanks,
Scott

That's where we would set yard arms to lift off a trailer, basically put the rear strap a foot or so from transom and the front strap where the windshield meets the deck and take it slow.

You mean like this, I had my 353 slung off when I brought it down South, seemed to work just fine, it did scare me to see the straps on the rub rail though, there's a lot of pressure on it.

Your trailer is what decides where the straps go. It is a good idea to mark your boat so if you have to sling it out of the water you can match the gaps in the bunks of the trailer.
