Commission Based is a Formula 37 PC that stands apart not only for her premium-quality construction and meticulous attention to detail. This example is in excellent condition and is worth a good look.

Formula is the only builder in this class that offers standard Imron hull graphics; with proper care the boat will always look new. This hull blemish free. The 6'6" of headroom below, the wide-open cabin sleeps six people—two forward, two in the mid-cabin lounge behind the companionway steps, and two in the salon with the crescent-shaped sofa converted. The enclosed head has a separate shower stall, and the dinette features Ultra-leather upholstery and a solid cherry table.

Commission Based has been lift stored, the bottom paint was refreshed in 2021.

The Formula’s U-shaped cockpit lounge seats eight adults and quickly converts into a large sun pad. The cockpit wet bar includes a sink and refrigerator. Bow access is via the walk thru windshield, provides safe access to the bow without worry. The transom and rear seat unit lift electrically for engine access.

Commission Based electronics include RayMarine Radar, GPS, Depth and Speed gauges. The main cabin has a flat panel TV with Bose sound system, as well as stereo with Bluetooth, Pandora, CD, and AM/FM. The canvas is in very good condition and has the complete enclosure with isinglass for cooler days. We not on the boat there is a cockpit cover to protect the excellent condition upholstery. This boat also includes a central vacuum system, and is wired for satellite TV. Formula is good about adding in extra features such as an anchor wash station on the bow.

As you know Formulas are a very seaworthy boat, with exceptional quality. A great boat to explore Florida’s many anchorages with the Kohler 7.3KW Generator and the air condition to make for a comfortable nights sleep. Commission Based is ready to go!

Formula 37 PC: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Formula 37 PC is a premium cruiser designed for both performance and ease of handling. Equipped with twin 430 horsepower 8.2 MAG HO engines and the advanced Axius joystick control system, this vessel offers precise maneuverability and powerful performance. Measuring 38 feet 5 inches in length overall with a 12-foot beam and a draft of 34 inches, the 37 PC balances spaciousness with agility, making it a capable boat for a variety of cruising conditions.

Exterior Design and Bridge Features

The 37 PC features a thoughtfully designed helm area with a double-wide seat that comfortably accommodates both captain and observer, each with flip-up bolsters that also serve as armrests. The helm panel is elegantly finished with faux burl wood and includes a 12-inch Raymarine E120 display, SmartCraft vessel view, fuel gauges, trim gauges, and optional autopilot controls. The power quadrant integrates digital throttle and shift controls, trim tabs, the Axius joystick, remote spotlight control, and a Skyhook station-keeping system. The steering wheel is leather-wrapped with wood trim and mounted on a tilt base for ergonomic handling. Boarding is facilitated by a non-skid cap rail, stainless grab handle, and variable-height railings that rise from 19 to 27 inches at the bow. The bow area includes a concealed Lumar windlass with automatic latching hatch, stainless steel anchor chute, freshwater washdown option, and dual foot control switches, enhancing both functionality and safety.

Engine Access and Systems

Maintenance and daily checks are simplified by the inclusion of a deck hatch that provides easy access to the twin engines. Additional compartments on the starboard side house the batteries, head pumps, and a fixed firefighting system, ensuring that critical systems are readily accessible. The engine hatch allows for more extensive maintenance, but the deck hatch is particularly convenient for routine inspections.

Power and Performance

Powered by twin 430 horsepower 8.2 MAG HO engines, the Formula 37 PC delivers a top speed of 46.7 miles per hour at 4,800 RPM, with a corresponding fuel burn of 67.5 gallons per hour, yielding a range of approximately 147 miles. The most efficient cruising speed is achieved at 3,500 RPM, where the boat maintains 32.2 miles per hour while consuming 33.25 gallons per hour. This allows for a cruising range of 206 miles over six hours and 24 minutes with a 10% fuel reserve. Acceleration is brisk, with the vessel planing in 4.8 seconds, reaching 20 miles per hour in 6.6 seconds, 30 miles per hour in 11.6 seconds, and 40 miles per hour in 18.8 seconds. The bow rises about 12 degrees during acceleration due to its forward position, temporarily obscuring the horizon until the boat planes. Once on plane, a slight adjustment of the trim tabs results in a comfortable 6 to 7 degree bow-high cruising attitude. Steering is responsive with two and a half turns lock to lock, providing precise control without overly sharp or uncomfortable turns.

Handling and Maneuverability

The Axius joystick system greatly enhances close-quarters handling, allowing the 37 PC to move in any direction with minimal effort. Docking mode reduces power for fine control, and the joystick’s placement offers excellent visibility of both bow and stern, critical for tight marina maneuvers. The helm’s ergonomic layout ensures that throttle, trim tabs, and joystick controls are within easy reach, facilitating confident operation in confined spaces. At idle speeds, the captain’s seating position may require adjustment to maintain clear sightlines through the windshield, but the boat’s generous headroom makes standing at the helm preferable during cruising.

Conclusion

The Formula 37 PC combines premium build quality with advanced technology to deliver a versatile and enjoyable cruising experience. Its powerful engines, efficient fuel consumption, and responsive handling make it suitable for both leisurely cruises and more spirited outings. The integration of the Axius joystick system simplifies close-quarters maneuvering, while the well-appointed helm and accessible engine compartments contribute to ease of operation and maintenance. Overall, the 37 PC stands out as a capable and thoughtfully designed cruiser in its class.
