I think cuda buys boats like I buy cars!
I have a boat-smart friend in that area if anybody's interested.

I went with someone to take a look at this boat. Here is the link to the thread in the Formula section that points you to some more close up pictures

The boat is rougher then as described. It is bottom painted (scraped off easy with my finger) would need a whole new sun pad, and a serious wetsanding and probably cleared over to get the hull back. I also wouldn't even think about moving the trailer in the state it is in...the salt has just eaten the joints almost completely away. If you have a couple of 383's hanging around and have some time I think the boat would be a Great project.

Mostly we sold the LS, but the SR-1 was a little screamer.
Small blocks were the heaviest engines it could handle, as you can imagine.
We put lildeuces bottom wax on it and...

Very possible. I didn't start selling new Formulas 'til '87, so I don't know what they called twins in '85.
