Formula 311 SR1
 
After restoring my Stinger, I will most likely list it for sale....would love a bigger boat afterwards!
Can anyone here chime in about the Formula 311 SR1, their opinions good and bad, etc. Might want to upgrade to one in the future....thx!

Dynamite boat, no speed demon, 330=62 mph 365=65 420/trs=67-70, loads of room, awesome ride, heavy need 3/4ton or bigger to tow, tons of nice 311's left do to great workmanship and serious owner pride, will never go out of style, and always have resale,

BUT like any older boat you need to check the basics, about the only major odd ball problem with Formula is the windshields can lead and cause stringer issues, make sure you lift the step up in cabin and check for water damage, good luck

Thankyou!! Just gotta finish my current project! Those speeds look fair, not looking to go over 100 any time soon LOL! Lets say one with 454's/trs would be 65+ right?
