Default Looking for a Formula 353 Fastech

Hi All,
I am in the market to buy a Formula 353 Fastech and was wondering if anyone knows of a good one.
I want a 2000 or newer, Want fuel injection Probably no Blown boats. Price range is $75K-$125, maybe a little more for the right boat.
I am in Southern CA, but would be interested in any location, as they can easily be shipped. Prefer boats that have not been in salt water, also prefer an Aluminum trailer.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Dave

Look on FB powerboat swap shop. There's a 99 model 353 with 500efi's located close to Lake Cumberland in Ky. I don't know the owner but we have some mural friends. Search Eric Ellsworth and it should come up. I've seen the boat in person and it's clean.

Thanks guys for the two leads. Both boats look interesting.
The yellow boat is almost new.

Hopefully the OP had a shot at this boat, eBay says the auction ended, and it is kinda rare to see a 353 with 600SCi..... Great engine also....

Erics boat is extremely nice as is the trailer is sits on, would be one of the best 353s on the market IMO

There is also an all white one in I believe NJ that has big whipple power and is fully loaded (a/c,gen etc), for me id love the 100mph option but I do think the resale aspect it's hurting the boat

Hi All,
Yes, the auction ended when I BOUGHT THE BOAT! I am really excited. It looks and sounds like a new boat. I am flying out to MI on Friday to complete the deal and will have the boat shrink wrapped and ship it to SoCal on a flat bed semi. I didn't want to take a chance on have anything happen to it towing it on it's own trailer.
Thanks to all of you for the leads. What a great group.
