Default Gotta Love Vandals

Kids must have broken into the Formula when I was in Miami last week. My cover was torn off by what I thought was the wind, but after removing it and getting in the boat they poured oil into the carpets and put out their cigarettes on the counters. Just wondering if you guys have a ball park figure I can give the police for damage? looks like new carpet and countertops plus a new full cover. The last four months has been the worst luck I have had ever...Thank goodness a new year is on its way.

Prater:
Contact Formula and get a full replacement estimate from them. Don't leave anything out! You can only make one claim and if you add to the claim as you go alog they will try to not pay for it so be careful. Good luck!

It was stored in my front driveway next to my Sea Ray. I was in Florida for three weeks on business and came back to find the top cover torn, I just did a temp fix to keep it together. That was last week. I had some time today to check on the boats and noticed footprints in the Formula.

Here is a pic of the interior. I have drained all the water and ATF out already. The boat had developed a leak during rain so they had to have cut the cover before or during the heavy rain that came through a couple of weeks ago.
