I guess my favorite is the 353 with any combination of power. I always thought the motors should be blue,but 496HO's are pretty sweet also, I have re-thought my views with the 353 Sport. A great boat for way less money.The neat thing about a 353 is even drivers with little experience can feel safe in a 353. It will give you no surprises. Sure, there are faster 35's,but the 353 is not about that. A true gentleman's performance boat.

Does that make me a gentelman by association?

and what about a 382 sport?

382 .....80 mph on 500 EFI's with ext boxes, flys flat. 90% of the time runs the best at neutral trim, turns on a dime, stay's hooked up even in bigger water... rides great due to the 12,500 lbs! You can sleep on it, It has a head that works, TV Fridge....

Hey Guys,

I would like to jump in on this thread. I know someone who is looking at an '86 357 SR1. A few of you seemed to like them so I was wondering what you knew about them. This particular one started as a KAAMA boat but now has 502's and new Bravo's. What is your guestimate on the weight of this thing. Do you think the Bravo's stand a chance Will it run 60?? This boat is immaculate for it's age and he will probably buy it regardless we just do not know much about the ealier Formulas.

Thanks for any imput.
