New Formula owner
Hi All, I just wanted to say hello to all the Formula boaters out there. Having just moved up to a 292 Fastech from a 22ft Crownline. Leslie and I boat mostly in the upper Chesapeake bay, and sometimes we tow to lake Raystown.
We bought the boat at the Annapolis boat show, and had to pick it up in late November, so we didn't get to run it much before putting it away for the winter. What little we did run it, we love it. What a fantastic boat!
We're looking forward to expanding our boating range, and also looking forward to meeting other Formula owners out there.

Welcome Live Wire!
We also boat on the Upper Ches. Bay and have been to Raystown! We have a 1994 303SR1 "TENACIOUS".
Where do you put in at the Ches. bay? We may try the new ramp in Rock Hall this year. We also frequent the Delaware river around Philly. Hope to see you this year.
Congrats on your new boat! Welcome to the Formula family.

Hi All
Thank you so much, it sounds like Formula boaters are very nice people. I hope Leslie and I can meet a few of you this summer, if it ever gets here.
When we picked the boat up we spent the weekend on the upper end of the bay before we had to put it away for the winter, but here are a few cold water numbers: at 3/4 throttle I ran out of prop and was up against the rev limeter. Before I had to back off we hit 72-74 gps. These are cold water numbers, which I'm sure will change this summer in the heat.
We put in at Anchor marine, North East. Nice ramp, and far enough back into the no wake that the water is calm all the time.
"Tenacious" We'd like to run up the Delaware river, so maybe we could hook up some time.
