The new 457 Center Console - Your destination for bold adventures!

by Formula Boats 6 Oct 2023 10:17 PDT

The Formula 457 Center Console will be your offshore adventure destination! Announcing at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show and debuting at the Miami International Boat Show, the 457 Center Console Sport and Fish models will again push the boundaries of design, engineering and construction in the offshore center console world, celebrating the finish and amenities of Formula's renewed entry into the center console market.

The center console world — media, builders, and consumers alike — were stunned and impressed by Formula's recent introduction of the 387 Center Console Sport and Fish models, proving the company's commitment to consumer satisfaction by researching, designing, and executing the ultimate in performance, ergonomics and amenities to the center console market. At 45'7" with a 13'9" beam, and powered by triple Mercury 600 Verados, the Formula 457 will impress all comers.

Built to your preference, from upscale sport cruising to hard-core fish, or a little of both, the 457 will match your boating style. Opt for a sculpted aft lounge and spacious swim platform for sporting adventures or foldaway aft seating and pressurized baitwells for a fishing battlewagon - we will build a boat to suit your wants and needs. Sport or Fish, you will love the triple 22" monitor dash and air-conditioned three-position helm. You can add AC to the second row and aft-facing seating for total crew comfort. Choose the entertainment-ready cockpit galley or bait station/wetbar to your needs. And all will enjoy the highly styled bow seating with elevated sun lounge and wraparound seating with power-adjust table.

Below, the cabin brings you 6'6" of headroom with a full aircraft galley with microwave, fridge, sink and abundant counter and cabinet space, as well as U-lounge seating with a table for dining or entertaining, convertible to a two-person berth. A well-appointed, spacious head features a separate, stand-up shower.

Join us at FLIBS to learn more about this elite game-changer. Then, make plans to climb aboard the first 457 in Miami. You will love what you see - we can't wait to impress you.
