Clean Formula 280SS with Twin Volvo Penta 5.7's & Duo Prop Drives Sitting On Tri-Axle Trailer Ready To Ride!
Formula lovers feast your eyes on this very well kept 280SS ready for its next adventure!
This 280SS spent all of its life in the great lakes prior to the current owner purchasing in 2023 and bringing it to SC where it has only been used on two freshwater lakes. Even though the current owner was longtime friends with the previous owner and had driven the boat several times, he did not realize just how big it is out of the water and that he needed to downsize.
Formula has always been known to build quality products, and it shows on this 280SS with the many features such as built-in fender holders, vacu flush head, shore power, extra bimini shade and much more. Loaded with ample and comfortable seating, the twin V8 Volve Pentas are certain to provide a smooth and exciting ride.
