Formula maintains a reputation for style, quality control, and consistent performance compared to similar boats in same market. These Go Fast boats represent classic old school design considered to be on the leading edge of design and functionality. The Deep V configuration assures that the performance can withstand heavy chop or other challenging water conditions.
The Formula 292 FAS³TECH is conquering the waters with exciting features and thrilling deep-V performance. Measuring 29 feet, 2 inches, this awesome machine is engineered with Formula’s state-of-the-art FAS³TECH hull configuration, increasing speed, stability and structure beyond the conventional deep-V hull with identical weight and power.
In terms of performance the twin 350 MAG MerCruisers along with the 4- blade racing props will comfortably push this 292 to over 70mph.
The interior is simple and elegant, the 292 FAS3Tech’s carpeted cabin had a long V-berth and a supple facing lounge. The galley consisted of a sink, countertop and an acrylic door, an ice chest and a couple of cupholders. Natural light came through the deck hatches and open sliding cabin door. In one of the lockers under the V-berth, there was is portable head unit.
Despite the cabin comforts, we’re reasonably sure owners and their guests on the 292 FAS3Tech will spend most of their time in the cockpit—and running hard.
To keep people comfy at speed, Formula outfitted the boat’s cockpit with drop-out-bottom bolsters for the driver and co-pilot and a deep contoured rear bench.
White-faced Gaffrig gauges in red bezels were arranged above the tilt steering wheel at the helm station to starboard. Gaffrig throttles and shifters, with drive-trim control on the inner throttle handle, were well placed on the starboard gunwale, and rocker switches activated the boat’s accessories, as well as its drives and tabs.
The boat does a lot of things well and lives up to Formula’s considerable reputation for cut-above craftsmanship.
This 292 sits on a triple axle aluminium trailer and has just had a full service on both engines including new manifolds, risers, fuel pump, two water pumps, new battery and gimbals bearings ready for this year’s boating!
