Hi Clay -
Before you buy a 311 you should take a look at my 357. Big, fast, loud, red and blown. There's room in the cabin of this thing for about 10 Claymates.
Bob Loyd knows my boat well. In fact, your recomendation was one of the reasons I started using Bob. He just put fresh superchargers on it last season and he's done all the work on my boat for the last couple of years.
You may have seen and/or heard me out at Devil's cove or around Travis.
It looks and runs great. It does need a few things so I do't have it listed for sale right now. But, I would sell it as is seriously, seriously cheap.
There are a few pics at this thread here:

I keep the boat in a building in San Antonio. If you're interested send me a message. I have a bunch more pics if you want to see.

Older Formulas are nice and will fit all three of your criterias,,as far as space goes, I had an 89 272sr that was roomy enough to put my 02 292 Fastech in the cockpit of(slight exaggeration) but difinately roomier than the newer birds..

Clay- my '89 311 is a bus in the rough and will run at speed in most of what LOTO can throw it it which is more than I can say for some "faster" boats. I have mild cam / head / intake / carb work on 454's and am happy enough. Of course, I want a FasTech . . . . and a Sunseeker and a and a and a and a

To everyone... I am very interested!
I have gone back and forth on what I think I want and need. I was looking at 34+ foot wave-crushers, but decided that they were too big and too heavy. But...
I went to the Austin Boat Show yesterday and found some 28-foot "wet slips" for $1830/year. I was told I could park a 35-foot boat in them!![EEK!](/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
So, now Brent's 35-foot monster and other big boats are back!
Please send pics, specs, and your "bottom dollar" price to:
[email protected]
Thanks!
