Does anyone know the actual sizes of these things? That would probably help with making any decisions.

Does anyone know the actual sizes of these things? That would probably help with making any decisions. I have a 28.5 single 502 Mach-1 now and well I’m an American so I want bigger and faster.

with any 80's-91 SR1 model, 242/272/292/311/357 you will add two feet, these models were measure actual hull length, swim platform was bolt on and not considered.

In 92 Formula integrated the swim platforms, so the 271/303/336/382 include platforms and are overall lengths

I understand the swim platform part but I still have no idea what each ones length is?

The numbers are the lenght messured in feet :-)

A lot depends the conditions, in Lake Erie personally I would NEVER have anything less then 32 ft ever again, I am now spoiled, if you are on inland lakes buy anything really, the light chop they get would make any boat fun!!

Lake Erie hands you your azz on the right day.... people have no idea....oceans are easier on boats the LE
