It was June 27, 2012\u2014I keep my notebooks from boat tests\u2014when we got early access aboard the new 2013 model. I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/boats\/formula-350-cbr\/\">tested the boat myself<\/a>, lauding its performance and the innovation of creating a 35-foot open-bowed boat, using a side-console format, for its great ride (in 30 years of testing boats, I never ran a Formula that didn\u2019t ride great) and for details, such as plumbing the through-hull fittings under the swim platform to provide a cleaner topsides look. In fact, the boat graced the cover of our February 2013 issue (the base price of our test boat, powered by two 430-hp MerCruiser Bravo Three sterndrives, was $355,780).<\/p>\n<p>Public sentiment was enthusiastic. Boaters are traditionalists, on the whole, though, and so there were the expected naysayers. Social media wasn\u2019t as fervent then, as today, but still Doubting Thomases had their say about \u201cnobody\u201d wanting a boat that big with an open bow and an abbreviated cabin, designed mostly for day use.<\/p>\n<p>Boy, I hope those folks had some good crow recipes because, as we now know, large, fast dayboats have become one of the most popular segments in recreational powerboating. And, Formula Boats was there at the start of the dayboat boom and remains a leader today.<\/p>\n<p>That brings me to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.formulaboats.com\/models\/crossover-bowrider\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the new Formula 360 CBR<\/a> which is launching as a 2026 model year boat now. This is Formula Designer Michael Young\u2019s first opportunity to direct creation, the torch having been passed from the estimable long-time designer, John Adams.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTG625-Formula-360CBR-Stern-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Formula 360 CBR running offshore\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTG625-Formula-360CBR-Stern-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTG625-Formula-360CBR-Stern-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTG625-Formula-360CBR-Stern-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTG625-Formula-360CBR-Stern-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTG625-Formula-360CBR-Stern.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">The Formula 360 CBR carries forward the tradition of a great ride and attention to detail.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Formula Boats<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<p>The 360 CBR sports a rakish new, yet familiar Formula profile, with a FAS<sup>3<\/sup>Tech ventilated stepped hull, reimagined forward-head CBR cabin layout and improved single-level cockpit floorplan.
