Formula 233 Registry

The premier site for owners of the famous 233.

Hey everybody!! I intended to install an armstrong bracket and add twin 150hp's this summer to my '73 sportfisher CC, but twin 200hp's are a tempting option?? Just cut out and rebuilt the transome so it's rock solid. Anybody have any idea if the boat will take the extra weight and force issues??? Thanks Brian

I am planning to do the same to my "71.
Gil,

Thanks for the response. I was wondering do you know the transom angle on the formula?? I think it's 11.5 degrees but mot sure?? You going with a single or twins??
I am going to a Twin 4 Stroke - I do not the angle for sure - The perosn who is going to build the bracket said that it was 13 degrees.
Are you planning to use an Armstrong bracket? - I notice that the transom is not flat therefore they bracket is going to be custom made for the boat -
Who is building your bracket?? There is a posting on thehulltruth.com of a boat "real memories" that the owner fitted a old bracket to the formula transom. I was going to see if Armstrong would custom make it for the boat with the off-set in the transom. The guy I spoke to there was familiar with the 233. What HP are you going with?? I would like to put 200's on the back of it and was thinking of glassing in another piece of 3/4 ply t the inside of the transom.
