98 353 sporting some new colors
Well, our new (to us) 98 353 just came back from paint. Started out as a repaint of the original color scheme, ended up with something a bit more current 
The work was done by a local shop, in the Detroit Area - Lafata Custom Paint. They've been working some magic on Skaters, Outerlimits, Cig as well as Formula.
The stripes were laid out by hand, using a few different Formula schemes to create sometime that is very Formula, but with a twist.
Awaiting some additional Innotec Carbon pieces and a new set of covers before, need a new scheme for the sun-pad as well. Gotta drop the rebuilt motor (failed intake manifold) and a new transom assembly in before I get her float worthy.

Thx. The boat has not been to friendly since coming home.
Found a bad transom assembly on one side and bad gimbal ring bushing on the on the other. Not to mention the mechanical indicator cables being rotted out.
