This site provides pictures, information and resources about two boats that I have owned, a 22ft. 1971 MacGregor Venture, and a 26ft. 1979 Formula Express Cruiser.  There is also information about boating in Iowa and other Formula and MacGregor boating resources.

22ft. 1971 Mac Gregor Venture Sailboat

This is a great first boat as it is very forgiving and easy to launch and retrieve due to the swing keel. The interior has been painted and restored.  Boat included two winches, lighted compass, three sails in great condition, sail bags for each sail, two fuel tanks (one large and one small), new carpet, and many extras.  Great for overnighting, the cabin can comfortably sleep four and includes a dinette and small v-berth.  Pop-top allows standing headroom when opened.  Engine is 6HP Evinrude long shaft outboard. Trailer included two new tires, new lights, and wiring.  Accessories on boat: new dock lines, mainsheet, jib sheets, straps and tie downs for trailering.  

26ft. 1979 Formula Express Cruiser Powerboat

The Formula 26 Express Cruiser is a performance boat designed for overnight or weekend use.  Its large cockpit comfortably accommodates 6-8 people.  Powered by twin 350 cubic inch Mercruiser V-8 engines, its top speed is around 40 MPH.  The cabin offers an enclosed head with shower, a galley with sink, two burner stove, and AC/DC refrigerator.  The settee transforms to a full v-berth which comfortably sleeps two, while the seat-backs flip up to create two medium sized bunk beds.  The boat's great condition is a testament to Formula's craftsmanship.
