Slowest boat on OSO
 

Just wanted to see if anybody had a boat slower them me? I have a 1985 Formula F3-LS 21' with a 350ci. it ran about 45-47 mph. I think it is the slowest, any body slower? :confused:

Hey Tom,

Isn't your boat slower now since you don't have a motor in her, and you are using oars?????

just kiddin.....how's the motor comming???? Put any smoke in it????.....I'd be dissapointed if you didn't!!

Very little smoke, motor is very much stock, just new bearings and some head work.
I'm saving the money that I was going to use to hop-up the motor for down payment on a bigger formula. I'm looking for a 31'. Do you know the guy on the river with the red 311-sr? Also did you see the ship stuck in the river?
:D :D :D :D :D

Actually I believe that MissAmy & Lutzparty could give you a run for your money. So to speak.:rolleyes:

Smart move Tom>>> Get your motor running and sell that boat, and buy a 311!!!

I don't think i ever saw a RED 311 out there?? What year?? Where does he keep it??

What kind of ship was stuck??? How???

Hey now CORD, Easy there........or we won't let you help in the primping and priming station before that bikini contest!!:mad: (j/k)

Yes, we would probably win the slowest boat award. But with Audio's help we will have the best dance floor! ;) :D

HI-PERF-2000 I don't know where the RED 311 is from, only seen it in passing on the river. A large ship full of steel and yes it still there. It's by the creek I keep my boat in and the linden ave ramp.
Have you done anything to your boat?

MissAmy I don't have a dance floor or much room dance, so now I have a slow boat that can't dance, can it get worse?: :(

Missmymoney,

Hahaha......things can ALWAYS get worse!

You can come dance on our boat ANYTIME! (Now Cord on the other hand..........LOL)

And hey, anybody with "MISS" in their name is okay in my book, regardless of their boat speed!! LOL!:D :D

Damn, now I blew it!:rolleyes:

Tell, ya what Amy-if I buy your condo, would you let me into the primping and priming room? Please, pretty please?!!! With jelly and all kinds of sweet stuff on top!!!:p

I'm such a pushover!! Okay, youre IN!:D :D :D .

(but only if you buy the condo;) )

I believe my magnum (not MAGNUM) has you beat at about 40mph. It rides like a tank though.

I hope to relinquish this title next year with a 502 or JATO rocket motors. Whatever it takes to go 60+.

BTW, the bow rail is gone already, the orange paint is being removed as we speak and the too-tall windshield is next on the list

Whew! That was close! Now all I have to do is sell the boat and house! I'm sure it'll be worth it though!:D

Shanes, 24 Skater I heard is pretty slow!!!!:D :D :D

Hmmmm....
 

...with or without the bimini top up?

:D

Hmmmm....27 mph cruise-does that get me slowest??

i think I might be a good one to enter this contest.. new shoot out class for LOTO.

Yo Ted-
You can't qualify for the slowest boat award with a cruiser. That's cheating, dude.

Missmymoney-
I'm right with you- 43MPH on a good day. Similar rigs, too. Now everyone knows why I have "arks" as my screen name.
I'm not too far away from you (Chester Co., Pa.). I usually run around the upper Chesapeake.

Tom, Its not all about going fast. At least youre out on a Formula.
The old LS is a great boat.
