Wes, except for my white rubrail, white navigation light, white hatches, and white engine grills (and Outlaw) on the side, it's like looking in a mirror. Nice looking rig. Is your silent thunder stock? I modified mine and picked up 300 rpms on the top end. Also switched to Hydromotive Quad IV's and could not believe the difference. If I didn't read the gps I would not have believed it. I picked up 5 mph at 3200 and 3 mph at the top. (originally had 23 inch Mirage, now 24's). What boat are you looking at now?

Hey Jokers Wild, are you interested in a silent thunder swim platform from a 311 SR1? I have a boat like Wes', small differences. (see above post). I am seriously considering going to a teal aluminum tubular swim platform from extreme marine. I have modified the interior of the silent thunder. I cut out the bonded partitions between the engine exhaust tips and the rectangular exhaust outlets on the muffler box. At the bottom of the box where originally there were small circular holes, are now big rectangular cut-outs, I worry about pelicans making nests up there. I gained 300 rpms on the top at WOT by these mods. Sounds healthier too. If your interested we might be able to work something out.

educate me a bit, how fast, any interior cockpit and cabin pictures? Did Formula have the adjustable footrest in '91, etc?

Currently got a '99 271 Fastech with a 500EFI that will run in the low 70's on a good day, upper 60's anytime, but want bigger and better ride. Also do not want the Blue paint of the High performance Merc again, no one in my boating area knows how to work on it, carries parts etc.

I would still like to run in the mid 70's consistantly, will 502's in a straight V (no step) do it?

BABY NEEDS NEW SHOES . so I need to get boat sold...

I have seen this Formula......It is veeeeeery clean !!!

To the top...Here's a side view of the silent thunder. Mine is exactly like that.

Adjustable footrests came in '92 on the 336. Also a change in the silent thunder platform and electric bolsters too.

I never liked the 336 as well. Other than they offered the 525SC in it..

Anybody looking for a nicely equipted 1993 303 SR1? I'd go 68,500 with a 2001 Sport Boat trailer? Boat is pristine!! Many extras. Email me at [email protected]. I'll be in Florida for a week, will answer when I get back. Sorry to invade the post, hope you sell yours first!

Thanks, Dave

Uh...Dave, do you have BO or something? I mean you post...and then no action in the Formula forum for 5+ days!!

Wes, still for sale? Bravos or TRS?
