The premier site for owners of the famous 233.
Miscellaneous Parts
Good afternoon everyone,
I am in the process of disassembly and will be discarding almost every single piece of hardware on my 1978 Formula 233. Everything from the deck/hull joint will be discarded. The only item I will be keeping is the teak cabin door. A lot of the items are corroded due to years of saltwater exposure and will not be used once I begin the rebuilding process.
That being said, if there is a specific item that you are looking for, please let me know. I am not looking for any monetary gains; I am simply trying to be helpful by offering these items to another board member who may be in need of a hard to find part. (Basically, if you want or need something, it's yours! I just dont want to discard something that someone may need!).
There isn't much here so the picking may be limited. This is what I have....
I purchased this Formula without any running gear, so there is none to offer. Sorry.
The steering wheel and helm are intact but are heavily corroded and pieces of wood are missing from the wheel itself.
The guages are intact but appear to be original. These may or may not work.
The windshield has already been removed but the glass is intact.
The bow rail is available but it is broken in several places and in my opinion, would be unsafe. I would not recommend re-using it.
The trim tabs are old and appear to be "Bennett Sport Tabs." The actuators are intact and they had oil in them when I removed them from the hull. They may or may not work.
The fuel tank is SHOT and already removed from the hull. This is not available as it cannot be used and will be recycled.
That's about it folks. I know I do not have much to offer but if I have something that helps just one of you, then I will be happily satisfied. For additional details about what is available and the condition of these items, please see the photographs I have downloaded to this site.
Thank you for looking!
Henry

Do you still have the steering wheel? I think between yours and mine I can make one good one. Also, were you parting with the morse controls?

Good morning Mr. Harding,
Yes, I do believe I still have both items but let me double-check this evening when I return from work.
The steering wheel has approximately half of the wood left around the perimter and there is some corrosion on the wheel itself. It could definitely be cleaned up and made usable with some effort.
The Morse control is for a single sterndrive assembly. When I purchased this hull, it did not have any of the throttle cables; only the helm assembly.
Once I make certain I didn't already dispose of these two items, I will let you know, but consider them yours!
Thank you for your interest and I will talk to you tomorrow!
Henry
