If there wasn't Formula...
 
If Formula didn't exist, or (God forbid) they got purchased by Brunswick or Genmar, what manufacturer would you go with and why? You may want to consider: resale, material & build quality, ride, customer service, styling, value, etc. Is there another manufacturer you have a lot of respect for or would you rather not boat if you can't do it in a Formula?

OK, Formula Gods please forgive me, but I would go with a Fountain. While I don't think the build quality is as good, they are well built high performance boats that are generally very fast.

I'd probably go with a Powequest, Nice big cockpits, well built, not quite as pricey as most. Hate the name though. When they lost the name battle to PowerPlay out of Florida, I couldn't believe they picked "Powerquest". It's like they're looking for power or something!! :D Of course, if money were no object,,,,,,,1-800-CIGARETTE, "Hello, Cigarette, build me a big obnoxious one right away" :D :D :D

I'd go with another used Formula.:)

Gee, if Formula wasn't started, then Don Aronow wouldn't have started Magnum, Cigarette, or Donzi. We wouldn't have the sport of offshore racing, as we know it, either.
I guess we'd all be running around in Bayliners. :crazy: :crazy:

I can't imagine not having Formula or the others around.
