Wish the photos of my trailer lights had come out better. At night they are almost can't look at them bright. Those LED's are killer.

I know what you mean, it does not look very safe does it?

The thing is, the whole weight of the boat is carried on its keel and through some very heavy wooden blocks. The side wooden props are merely there to stop any sideways movement and dont actually carry much weight.

I can assure you that its very safe and does not cause any damage to the hull.

However, if i had been given the Formula shipping cradle by the previous owner, i would be using that instead.

Here's one today idling at the Nokomis boat ramp dock getting ready to head north to MarVista to hook up with friends. It was just postcard perfect weather. Tee shirts, shorts, and lots of sunblock.

Spent the first year in Boothbay Harbor, (actually Southport Island), the next eleven in Portland and South Windham, and the last six in Bahhh Hahhbor.

Did quite a bit of boating on Sebago with my first Formula, a 242 with twin small blocks. Took my first "seaplane" ride from there.

Miss a lot, DO NOT miss the winters.

Outlaw, Glad to see you were from Maine so you can relate to the off season :( , I have been to all the places you have mentioned the state has a lot of lakes and is great for boating its just the season is to short, The lakes region has changed a lot since you have been here last.

Back 15 yrs ago performance boats were far and few between and the larger ones were in the 24-28 ft range, Now there is everything from 24-42 ft and big power ranging from 350-1200 hp, it has got to the point that we are having noise restriction issues with the Maine Warden Service, We have some Jacka@@ that is from out of state and wants to try to make the lake his version of "On Golden Pond" and has donated money to the state to provide the wardens with decibal meters.

We are aloud 90 db 4 ft back and 4 ft up so my winter project is going with the GGb Extreme Transom mount mufflers to keep him off my back, If you ever make it up this way stop in at Naples Marina we can toss a couple back and take a ride, Jeff

I will be up that way and certainly hook up. Audiofn (Jon) is building a house in your area. If things go well this year, this fall I'm trailering Outlaw up to run around. Have to see how the summer plays out. I really enjoyed running up at Moosehead.

One of the most striking boating "memories" is pulling into Southweat Harbor or Northeast Harbor on Mt. Desert Island at the peak of foilage season. Just beautiful. Wish I had some pix.

Outlaw, Moosehead is a great lake especially around the back side of mt kineio, there is that big old hotel back there,
I think john is around the corner from Kurt (Biggus) somewhere, i usually have a couple with biggus during the summer, he knows where i am at, Jeff

Yes, and consider the price is less than one month's cable bill, and a whole lot more entertaining. :D

Didn't something like that cause problems for Michael Jackson?

Uh oh! I think this thread has gone down hill and off topics!

Spring needs to spring soon, so at least we can have some fresh (non-Florida) pictures of Formulas on this thread.
