I may be hitting up this site more often again. OSO is driving me nuts. They will not change my user name for several issues they listed. I have not even asked here if they will. I always change my user names when I change/ get new boats. Plus I have tried to ask several questions to guys about things they had done to their Formula or parts I liked and no reply. Cannot even get a stereo upgrade suggestion. Geez WTF. So a few months ago I bought this 312. These are old pics. The old girl has come a long way. The previous owner did not treat her right. Still needs a good wet sand and buff but getting close. I plan to rebuild the trailer this winter sand blast paint, has 4 new tires, new rims, new lights, new brakes, etc. seat bases get blasted and power coated, same with throttles, maybe windshield frame. What else can I do.

I have never seen a Formula with Volvos. Did it come like that or was it re powered?

Yes, towards the back on the port and starboard side above rub rail he had a saying "Call of the Wild" I guess it is suppose to be like a tiger claw ripped through it. had paw prints on the deck. It is going to be fun trying to sand it down after 10 years of wear and tear with those on. Yes, it is white now. I like it.

He ordered it like that. My Friend/guy who I buy my parts from is a Volvo nut and has every part you can imagine for volvos. He runs the same setup I do on his 32' Advantage. The motors have been pretty turn key, needed thermostats, relay went out for trim pump and seal blew on hydraulic steering ram and trim ram. Theron removed and painted my drives check bushings, changed oil, etc. Said it looked good. The drives look new now, oh I had to buy new props, someone did not know what they were doing working on the old ones. I have been out a few times now and love it. props need work come spring.

Running last poker run. Meet a new friend at Mansfield damn. He had launched his Baja and the trailer went off the ramp. We had to go to highland lakes marina to launch and he had to pull me out. Shady ramp.

Yes, I live in Austin. That is Lake Travis. Wish it would come up enough to use the ramp again.

They water on restrictions and new homes cannot install lawns, flowers or trees. Crazy.
