Default Formula Factory

Murphy's Law-You always seem to pass by a place that you want to visit when it is closed. Business took me by Decator, Indiana today so I drove by the plant...at least I have a few outside pics...

I went to the front door. Looks like they had a Fastech in the waiting area...but the windows were too dark to get a good pic. You could also drive into the middle of the boats waiting to be shipped. I just did not want to for risk of causing damage or beeing met by any kind of security patrol. I kept my distance for the pics.

Plant tour is incredible. My older brother took me there on a motivativonal ride while I was struggling through residency at Johns Hopkins. Back then, they had a 357 sitting in the lobby. Place was so clean you could eat off the factory floor. They wouldn't let me swim in the swimming pool, there was a boat in it!

Anyone considering buying a Formula should take the plant tour,they will want to pay the dealer more for the boat once they see how it is built.Sounds like I'm kidding here, but really,I'm not See for yourself,you will be impressed. After 40 years in this crazy business,I know the real deal,and it is Formula.
