I gave you my opinion in chat the other night. It sounds like a helluva deal. Did you see it yet?

I love mine. It's great in the rough stuff, definitely my favorite aspect of the boat, besides the Formula quality. I haven't gotten into the "chat" room yet, wish I'd been in that one Cuda was talking about. What's the info on it? If you end up with one, swap the props to Hydromotive Intimidator Quad IV's, you won't believe the difference, at least over the Mirage that came with mine. If it has the "silent thunder" exhaust on it, I can give you some ideas how to modify it so it runs better.
Sounds better too. Keep me posted on what you do....

Thumbs up

You will be hard pressed to find a better built boat than an old Formula. Very solid ride. Does it have 454 Magnums? Good luck!!

What are you looking to get for your 311? What are you getting for top speed with the 502's and how many hours are on them?
