Has anybody else been out yet around central, il? I went for a quick shakedown cruise saturday afternoon (55 sunny). It was windy on lake shelbyville but i was just glad to hear the boat run with no silent thunder. Just curious....

Nice looking boat.

I splashed my boat last Wednesday afternoon (3/26) and put it on the lift on Dock 3 at Clinton Lake.

That's awesome knot i test drove my boat on clinton lake so i know how you feel!

Knot 4 Me

Did you buy your Formula from Gibbs?

TylerBurich

I bought it from jim and jeff last year early in the season. I went through two starboard motors due to craptastic old manifolds and a bad lifter set on the first rebuild. I upgraded to imco's and the new motor the second time around seems to be running great!

Knot 4 Me

Cool. I know the boat. Looked at it a couple times. Nick Walters did the original work on the starboard motor before he left Clinton Marine.

TylerBurich

That's good to know. I know both motors were done at some point because the heads had markings on them that they were to be done for clinton marine. Other than that i think the boat spent it's whole life in the ozarks til joe martin brought it home to decatur. You will have to give me a shout if you are on shelbyville in the summer

Do you have any pics of the platform where it meets up with the rear of the boat? I saw some in the past that curved with the rub rail rather than straight across. Just wondering how yours looks when you are standing on it.

Thanks!

TylerBurich

I will get some pics, my platform is straight across. Below the rub rail the transom doesn't curve like it does above.
