Formula presents the 2015 line of best designed, best built pleasure boats on the water today. through fifty-five plus years of ongoing advancement in marine manufacturing, formula’s tradition of excellence continues to surpass expectations with the ultimate goal of providing consistently gratifying experiences on the water with family and friends.

ONCE YOU CHOOSE A FORMULA FAS3Tech®, you’re in for the best high-performance boating of your life. Whether it’s the 292, 353 or the impressive 382, you’ve assured lots of thrilling good times are ahead. Formula integrates all the big water features you like best in a smart, sleek design as fast as it is beautiful – McLeod® racing style helm and companion bolsters that electrically adjust, deep aft bench seating that’s truly comfortable, and a large sunpad/engine hatch patterned to integrate your graphic choice. Absolute structural integrityis assured by the unitized fiberglass hull matrix, proven again and again offshore. And most important, the exclusive FAS3Tech multiplane hull brings on the extra speed, stabilityand responsive handling you always want. You’ll receive photos as your dream boat advances through production, or arrange for a tour of our facility and personally observe your boat’s progress – we would love to host you.

NOW MORE THAN EVER, 2015 GRAPHICS declare your personal statement. A bold new Platinum graphic, Cyber Fire, adds a powerful edge to your 2015 FAS3Tech, plus other sizzling colors and designs let you express your style. With FormulaFlex™, all colors are interchangeable, rewarding those with creative imagination and a perceptive eye. MyWay™

upgrades put you even further in the driver’s seat with the full range of Pantone® colors at your fingertips. Want your Formula to match your vehicle? Or your alma mater? Or the color of her eyes? You can with FormulaFlex MyWay.

FORMULA WOULD NEVER GIVE YOU A BARE BONES CABIN as many do. The raised bow berth and seating are comfortable yet durable Ultraleather™ for relaxed refreshment and conversation, and FormulaFlex offers the opportunity for further personalization. You’ll marvel at all the extra features and precise detailing in your chosen model.

THE FAS3Tech HELM has everything you ever wanted on high-speed runs. Snugged in the bolster at your exact setting, the throttles and steering wheel respond to your slightest command. The impressive carbon-fiber composite instrumentpanel inset with Livorsi® Oversized MegaSeries gauges reads at a glance. And always, the extra power you need along with a 24-degree, multi-step hull delivers that solid, controlled, all-out ride and exhilaration that can’t be beat.

IT’S TRUE - we don’t build for the masses, but we do build for you. You’ll never see another FAS3Tech quite like yours. That’s what sets you apart. And that’s what makes your Formula boating even more rewarding. Reset. Revive. Refresh. To times forever remembered – the place you love to be.
