Formula 330 Crossover Bow Rider
It’s one of the sweetest hybrid models to debut in 2015. The Formula 330 CBR (33′ LOA, 10’3″ beam) is one part day boat, one part overnight cruiser. This crossover model boasts open cockpit and bow areas that are as forward thinking as they are stylish. Lounges and seats, for instance, are convertible and make up into a variety of arrangements to suit the preferences of any group of guests. Seating is covered in fitted upholstery that’s top-notch, as it typically is on a Formula boat. The cabin, accessed through a door near the helm, has six feet of headroom, a lounge that converts to a queen-sized berth, a head with shower, plus an entertainment system. Whether you cruise for a few hours or into the night, driving the 330 should be a thrill. Twin Merc or Volvo engines power the 21-degree deep-V hull to deliver the exacting performance Formula owners have come to expect. formulaboats.com
