new boat
 

iam the new owner of a 2001 formula 280ss
twin 350 mag w/ brovoIII's anyone else have one?
it's going to be a long winter :D

congrats, jim. the new ss is a nice rig. you need to come do some boating down here in louisiana. our mardi gras boat parades are in approx 3-4 weeks (should be between 60-75 degrees). boating will start in full shortly therafter. huge poker run first weekend in may (tickfaw 200). 240 total hands with 174 boats entered. it's great territory for boating and motorcycling - damn near year round.

thank's sounds like a great time wish i had the time to go,may go to new orliens(sp)
in the spring but by plane

We've got a 2000 330ss with the same engine/drive package in the family. I've logged a lot of hours on it. In fact, the Mrs.'s likes it more than the SR1 due to all its creature comforts. You should have a great time with yours.

Congrats!!! Welcome to the Formula family! 280ss is a nice boat. Twin Bravo III's should be impressive out of the hole. As a fellow Midwesterner, bring on Spring!

thank's guy's iam really looking foward to this summer :cool:

Cool keep up posted on how she runs :D :D

See you at the NJPPC runs this summer, Jim? I'll trade a ride in your 280 for a ride in my 382.

to going for a ride on your 382
audiofn-spring wont come fast enought,ill keep you posted on the performance,iam sending the props out to be lab finished
:D

Congrats on the new boat! Where are you planning on running it? I assume either the Hudson river or the LI Sound. We've been up the Hudson a few times from Liberty State Park to a little north of West Point. Very pretty ride!

We just bought a 1994 303SR1 and can't wait to use it!

Think summer :cool: :D

Congrats as well!! I'm with toolman, picked up a 1993 303SR1 in October, logged 20 minutes on the test drive and have to wait to spring to get back behind the wheel! My best advice to a potential boat owner(either new or used):

DO NOT buy a boat in October if you live where you can't use it for 6 months! You WILL go CRAZZZY! I can attest to it!
Wishing for a short winter and a HOT spring!
PS. Toolman may want to hook up this summer for a ride down the Hudso. You game? :p

I bought my 89 272 two years ago in December, so I only had a 5 month wait. Still sucked.

Congrats on the new boat purchases guys.
