This is a rare find Formula 28 that has been maintained to the highest degree and has been kept on its trailer under cover in a boat shed. She has recently undergone a thorough mechanical upgrade where all systems were checked and all maintenance brought up to date. This one can be considered a "go fast" with the Captain's Choice exhaust sounding off or can be considered a "Family Cruiser" in the silencer position. She has a spacious cockpit with lots of seating a wet bar and dedicated storage for fenders or dive tanks under the port side companion seat. Other exterior features include a walk-thru windshield, a large storage compartment in the deck, a double wide helm seat with bolsters, Garmin GPS/Depth, storage compartments under the companion seats and a premium sound system with amplifier. The cabin is roomy and features a v-berth settee and a spacious head compartment with shower and vacuflush system. She also features a Bimini top and full weather enclosure plus snap in carpeting (in storage). RECENT TRAILER REBUILD 2025 - NEW AXLES, TIRES, BRAKES, AND BUNKS - RECEIPTS AVAILABLE. Call today and be on the water this weekend....this one is "turn key" ready.
