Nice boat ADoubleU. Love the blue gray and black combination. Always have and will love the late 80s Formulas.
What can I do to convince both Dane and you to make the run up to Barnegat Bay Labor Day weekend for our 5th Annual Formula Rendezvous? Would love to see the 242 in person. Believe we got a guy, DRock(another PA guy) that is going to be bringing his 242SS down. Would love to have another 242 there as well. Let me know.

Im sorry but unless you have someone wrap the stripes around the back of the transom it just does not look good to me, every one Ive ever seen looks like something was lots or missing,
Sorry just my opinion, and we know what those are worth, other then that thats a pretty 242, sometimes I miss mine,

I always prefer to keep Formulas as stock as possible. I always liked the old rectangular exhaust ports. Set Formulas apart from the rest. Even with the old platform the imron didn't wrap around the whole stern. They did extend onto the platform but then ended at the edge of the platform. No real difference from how it is now. At least there is a platform and the blue of the platform is spot on.
I removed the silent thunder box from my 292 Fastech, but so did Formula in 05. That's the only reason why I did, other wise it would still be on. Try to keep my 12 year old bird looking a little current.
