Re: I like this one but never heard of it...
Great little boats that formula only made in the early 80's. Typical Formula quality in a little package. My uncle bought one as a ski boat (great ski boat btw) that had a newer Merc 220 hp V-6 I/O and the boat FLIES. Put a 350 mag and thru hull in it and you have a serious animal on your hands. Driven it a few times and was very impressed for a small boat.

Re: I like this one but never heard of it...

Re: I like this one but never heard of it...
Been on couer d'alene lake in some 2 to 3 footers and you definatley have to be on you game and like speed . The faster the better and if you slam a wave hang on cause the boat will take it but you might not ....... The hull is very stable and with the outboard it will be super lite . You definatley will be MOHAMED ALI float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. Lots of luck and fun

I think the max hp rating on the outboard was 145....gotta think that a newer 150-175 outboard would be a blast on this hull given that the rating many times came from the weight of the motor back then.
