Have done several upgrades. So I won't include them in things broke. However yesterday lost starter on stbd engine. So it will be 2 new starters. The plus is my 272 did plane off on 1 engine and run 38 mph. I was impressed.

Lol funny thread!! I never use my lights and my rear light pole holder broke when I tried to put the pole in. Cracked bottom out. Think the motor heat and sun dry rotted the plastic . One McLeod bolster switch broke won't go up..one front running light ground was corroded and rotted bad connection.. Trim tab pump blew fluid out think hit a wave and forced it back through.. Oh also power steering return line was leaking at clamp trimmed it back and new clamp was fixed.. All minor stiff really. And expected being a 96. But I love the boat my second formula I'll never switch brands EVER

Oh and replaced blower ducts to they were brittle

Last year, three of my carbon fiber dash panels started peeling at the corners. The clear red plastic overlay peeled back and eventually broke off. The dealer replaced the main panel with the gauges and Formula sent me the other two switch panels to replace myself. Well, I finally got around to replacing the two switch panels two weeks ago and now they started doing the same thing.

Not a major issue, but I'm anal about keeping the boat looking good so now I have to go through this again.


Is anyone else having the same issue?

Dave
