Budman, It weighs around 7500 which isnt too bad for a 34' LOA 10' beam boat. The nearly 900 hp scoots it along pretty good if I would only stop blowing engines. Just brought it home today for the winter

What are you running for power? What kind of top speed? Looks like a good compromise between cruiser and go-fast. I've often wondered about supercharging a cruiser, or dropping in a big-cube engine. Comfort and speed is a nice combination - if only I could afford the gas!

454's on steroids. The trick is keeping it all below the deck. Had to use torker 2 intakes to keep it low enough. Mid to upper 60's right now and 70 with the right water and air but I had an engine that just wasnt doing its thing and eventually blew up so one of them starts from scratch this year. I will be happy with a solid 70 for quite a while. I found this when I had to sell my Formula SR311 for money and livability reasons. These are the only older cruisers that had some speed capability. I love the new formula cruisers but wow, have to win the lottery. This is my second fast cruiser project.

Yeah I remember the last one Formula... it was the flying ambassador if I remember correctly. I thought the pic of that thing flying with only the drive in the water was pretty cool!

Hmmn, 'Flying Ambassador' you say. I would love to see a picture of that! What are the chances? Any history on them?

It was a late 80s Regal 233 Ambassador Martini if I remember correctly which Formula souped up. He sent me a pic one time that I really liked, but now cannot find. Maybe he will share.
