Formula 40 Performance Cruiser: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Formula 40 PC exemplifies the qualities that distinguish an upscale yacht from an average one. Designed with functionality and premium craftsmanship in mind, this model offers a blend of innovative features and thoughtful details that enhance both comfort and usability on the water.
Exterior Design and Cockpit
A standout feature of the Formula 40 PC is its versatile stern section, which significantly enhances the boat's functionality. The stern sunpad is equipped with twin backrests that lock into three distinct positions, allowing it to serve as an aft-facing chaise lounge for sunbathing, an aft-facing seat when at anchor, or additional forward-facing seating for the cockpit. The sunpad lifts on gas shocks to reveal storage space containing a remote control for the swim platform, which doubles as a tender or personal watercraft platform. Also stored here are filler cushions for the U-shaped cockpit seating and cocktail tables, all secured in dedicated cutouts. The cockpit seating is upholstered in Nautilex marine vinyl and includes storage compartments beneath. The cockpit area features flush-mounted stainless steel drink holders and a stereo remote control for convenience. Moving forward, the bow is easily accessible via a walk-through windshield, with ample handholds and a solid, non-skid deck that resists flexing, reflecting the build quality typical of premium yachts.
Interior Living Spaces
Inside, the galley is thoughtfully arranged on the port side, featuring a coffee docking station and generous countertop space measuring approximately 29.5 by 30 inches. The galley includes a two-burner electric stove with a safety micro switch that automatically shuts off when the lid is closed, a 5.2 cubic foot refrigerator, and a 1.8 cubic foot freezer. The cabinetry showcases dovetail joinery on all drawers, a hallmark of quality craftsmanship. The main cabin benefits from three port lights that provide natural light and ventilation. Privacy is enhanced by an innovative lighting system with dimmable uplights and adjustable covers that direct light downward, surpassing the typical curtain solutions found on many boats. Additional interior features include cedar-lined lockers behind mirrored hatches and a port-side cabinet containing a privacy safe and dovetailed drawers that retract smoothly when closed.
Private Accommodations
The forward berth offers ample storage with two pull-out drawers beneath the bed, incorporating the same automatic retraction mechanism as other drawers on board. Overhead, a hatch provides natural light, ventilation with a sliding screen, and serves as an emergency escape route. The aft cabins stand out as particularly comfortable spaces, furnished with ultra-leather seating and equipped with a 19-inch LCD television on the port side. These cabins include substantial storage, including dedicated compartments for pedestals that convert the space into additional berths. The cabins provide about five feet of overhead clearance, with a sole extension that allows occupants to stand naturally without head clearance issues.
Conclusion
The Formula 40 PC by Formula demonstrates a clear commitment to upscale design and functionality. From its adaptable stern sunpad and solid deck construction to its well-appointed galley and comfortable private accommodations, this yacht offers a premium boating experience. The attention to detail in storage solutions, lighting, and materials underscores the difference that quality craftsmanship makes in a cruiser of this class.
