Were you running over towards East Greenwich this afternoon? Saw a similar Formula as I was headed the other way.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys, i found the 89 formula brochure and the 272 in the book is just like mine newport #1 imron, took it out for some shakedown this weekend, learned a lot about this boat, whoever put the starboard motor in hit the steering rack with the oil filter and the filter burst first time i took it to 5,000 rpm, luckily i caught it after losing only 3 qts of oil, also the seller topped off all fluids and cleaned the bilge just before i picked it up, explains why he called me every half hour on my way there, found one drive reservoir leaking, and p.s. fluid was low. heres a few more pics
