292 FASTech is HOME!!!!!
2 Attachment(s)
Well I finally pulled the trigger and ordered my 292 FASTech a few weeks ago. I'm sitting here after midnight in my hotel room on a business trip and thought I would share my excitement! Here's the run down:
Imron Silver #3 - Barbados twin MX 6.2 MPI's Lathem hydraulic steering mechanical trim indicators SmartCraft SC5000 upgraded stereo bimini + FSA curtains (sorry Cuda) transom shower I have been on OSO for some time. It will be nice to actually OWN a Formula to share stories/ideas/information/etc. My last boat was Talon 22 tunnel hull with twin 2.5's (110 mph). This boat will be a change of pace, but in a good way. My Dad still owns his 1978 20' CL Formula 330 HP TRS (that's another story....). Kim and I toured the Formula plant last month. Ryan, our tech support/tour guide, is now sending photos of our baby under construction. How cool is that!! See the following pics. BTW, thanks to you guys I hooked up with Robert Nelems who has been great and I am looking forward to a smooth transaction. Dave |

Very nice boat. What is the expected speed with that setup?

I almost bought the same thing, sans bimini, a couple years ago, but ran across my boat instead. That should be a great set up.

Re: 292 FASTech on the way!!
you will love your new boat. I bought a 2002 292 Fastech with 350 Mag MPI
and it will run 72mph with full fuel and 8 people in her |
Re: 292 FASTech on the way!!
Those numbers are very respectable. I see your boat will have Lathem hydraulic steering. Is that a factory option? I didn't see it listed as one on Formula's website. Is it just a matter of requesting it from Formula?

Congratulations 4mula, enjoy your new ride...I love mine! It's a fun boat and it also has a nice ride and the creature comforts to keep the family happy.

Re: 292 FASTech on the way!!
I have a 2003 292, and love it, but I'd get them to put another set of props on it, as the labbed 28's have way too much slip. I got them to put a set of labbed 30's mine. But since then I have changed them, and put a stock set of 28's on, way better cruise. Does'nt quite get the WOT rpm's though, but it's still sbout the same top end.
I think I'll be putting mune up for sale this winter, though. |
