Looks familiar. Did you buy it from Erwin Marine? They have one location 4 miles from me. The other location is in Chattanooga TN. At one point they had two just alike but with different power.

Welcome to the family, you're going to love it. Great looking boat. I wouldn't worry too much about high hours on those mags, they run FOREVER. A guy in my boat club had 550 hours on his at the beginning of last spring on his 38 Fountain. He said all he's done is change exhaust and change oil. This guy runs the piss out of it too. I didn't see him last summer after I moved, but I'm sure I would have heard if he'd have blown them, and I guarantee you he probably put on 200 more hours the past summer. Enjoy it! :cool:

Congrats to you and your family!

Formula builds a great boat that holds its value well. Everglades Marina was a Formula dealer when I worked there many years ago. I got to know the Porter family and they are truly good people.

Back then they were building about 1,100 boats per year, so the attention to detail is very good.

Because those are EFI engines, your surveyor can scan the ECMs and confirm running time hours and check for trouble and fault codes.

cuda is correct that those engines should last with good exhaust. If it's a fresh water boat, the exhaust will last longer.

I wish you the very best of luck and if I can be of any help, please call or email me.
