Where do you get this? You don't have a clue. The 353 that my friend owns has thru-hull exhaust with captains call on it. Another friend had a 353 with bulldogs and it also had thru-hull. There wasn't even cutouts for silent thunder in the platforms.

Why? Cigerette has gone through ownership changes and has money trouble. Fountain is having money trouble. Looks like Formula has the right business model and they're selling boats. They're not targeting the very limited "hard core" boater.

6 6" and Fountain don't mix. How the hell did you do that? You must have looked funny standing up with all that big freeboard!!

How did you lose leg?

nice try via the backdoor Mike... The fuel tanks are both top quality I'm sure, and my 496 boat has "race mounts"! I'm 6'6" also...that 4'10" headroom in the Fountain is at the cabin door opening correct?

guess I'm in trouble.

smiles and winks in the post Mike...Just comin' back in fun. I'm at work (sshhhh) and looking to pass some time on OSO. Now what were you sayin' about those junk Formulas?

Yes, the solid plate cradle mounts...just like my 32' Velocity had. Now that oughta get you raggin' !

There is an obvious solution to this dilema. Buy a Cig! If the Cig has all the stuff you like, why look at a Formula?

I've had three Formulas ( still own two and still miss the other one), and they are just what I like.
