Went to look at one of those last week, beautiful boats. I noticed the Formula version is not a self bailing cockpit and the water taken on board has to seep around things and under the engine box cover to drain into the bildge.
The Albermarle version has water channels built in the floor and big three inch wide drains on the transom with one way flaps on them. Big diffrence in my opinion.
Loved that boat anyhow, he had done a lot of work on it including a full Imron paint job and the price was good.
Anybody know how they do on fuel with a 260 hp I/O and alpha outdrive. He said he never measured?
