Looking to do an older 353 Fastech....
 
Ok Fountain was sold a while back to make room for a SeaRay then that SeaRay was too small. Next SeaRay was right size but now kids are in Hockey and Figure Skating along with other school and friend activities.
What does all this mean?
I'm ready for a Chain O Lakes toy with enough room to bring an extra kid or 2 along, run around wide open all day, then go back home and sleep in my own bed without any kids and wife in each other's face.
Anybody know of or even own one that is for sale?
Looking for as unmolested one as possible without blue motors or 496HO's.... That, I guess leaves me with 502Mags.

Good amount of older 353s on boat trader. Too bad your not looking for 525s, mine is listed.

You run the Chain of Lakes in IL just south of the Wisconsin border? That's where my Formula came from

Yep, That be the place.
Nice boat Rob...Too nice for the Chain.

A nice MCOB would be nice for that place, seems like a waste for an offshore boat

I know of a clean 382 with 500s. Not sure if you want to go that big but it's a heck of a boat.

You are a lucky guy! i got a 98 353 with 502s ... ON THE CHAIN!!! Even have a 10k lb lift i would prob sell with it.

I'll Inbox you some info

I'm all ears. Have looked at a few but haven't found one that does it for me.
I would consider either model.
Post pics or email me some.
Rob your 353 is beautiful.

Thank you very much! Took a few seasons to get it really the way I wanted, I'm a detail nut and bolt guy so it makes perfect sense to sell now that I'm done, right? I'm ready to move into a 700 boat, its just I don't look forward to getting something else and starting over. Thanks again on the compliments, I know it will make the next owner very happy.

So what kind of speed can I expect out of a 353 with 500EFI's
