I Have a 2005 Blue motor Boat 280 Hours every option under the sun( It was the actual boat from the formula photo shoot that year) Also has a full enclosure with bimini. Also has the bravo one xr drives with the ITS System and captains call exhaust. Boat can be seen here with pictures. http://www.powerboatlistings.com/view/30459

I have all the 05 Formula brochures and the Fastech in Platinum Flash paintwork that is in the brochures is a 382 with quad bolsters. For sale recently is a quad bolster 353 in the same Flash paint that is/was used as a pace boat and can be found on-line. What photo shoot are you referring to for your boat?

Maybe it wasnt used in the brochure. All I know is when I called formula direct looking to see if they had any leftovers with 525's they told me they had a left over 05 at a marina in NY that was used in the photo shoot and that it had 30 hours on it and that it came back to formula they changed all the fluids went over the boat and sent it out to that dealer. Was sold a year later to me in 06 when I was inquiring about one with a full 5 year warranty on the motors from formula.

I see that 353 on lake winni all the time and it's SWEET!!

We have a 2006 353. I up fitted to CMI exhaust systems and Maximus props with the BBlades magical touch. The 496HO twins will push a light load (two adults) to 78mph. The Maximus props give an economical cruise at 3300rpm of 55mph.

Pretty certain Chris has already found his new to him 353.....
