2010 Formula 45

Formula boats has a reputation that is among the best in boat building. This 2010 Formula 45 Express "BELLA BLUE" has an updated dash at the helm:

Volvo Penta, in conjunction with Garmin, has developed the Volvo Penta Glass Cockpit System, the premier multi-display solution for Volvo Penta propulsion systems. This glass cockpit series is an advanced, reliable and user-friendly Garmin interface fully integrated with the most pivotal handling and safety information from Volvo Penta. The result is the ultimate boating experience

The 45 is designed to impress with classic Formula lines, a stunning visual presentation with unparalleled, state-of-the-art construction, world-class craftsmanship, and the finest in materials and componentry. Lavish amenities and clever features abound, securing the 45’s place in the elite yacht class.

The 45 Yacht commands attention at 48’ 2” overall (45’ less bow platform) with a roomy 13’ 11” beam. Perhaps its most striking feature is the coupe top design, integrated with a motorized sunroof. A truly unique aspect of its design, unprecedented in the industry, is the windshield, which reaches fully from deck to top with no forward roof bracing. The view at the front or sides, affording a stunning panorama for those in the cockpit for great visibility.

Forward, comfortable, molded in-dash fiberglass steps with a 316L stainless handrail lead to the center windshield walk-thru door, providing ready access to the deck. Footing is sure, with nonskid surfaces surrounding twin sun pads with individual safety rails. The anchor windlass is concealed under a flush lid at the bow platform, along with the stainless steel anchor and coiled-hose, freshwater wash-down system. Bow rails with mid-level lifeline cables outlining the perimeter of the deck provide utmost safety on the water.

At the helm are dual electronic engine monitor displays and fuel and rudder gauges, logically arranged and beautifully displayed. The captain will discover all switches and electronic controls strategically positioned, achieving excellent helm ergonomics whether sitting, standing or leaning back against the double-wide command seat. Instrument panels are in a handsome mix of burl woodgrain and brushed metal and allow ample space to include the complete array of full-size Raymarine™ electronics that Formula offers and installs. The beautifully curved windshield, with side vents and center walk-thru door with multi-positioning window, provides open-air ventilation, while the available 30,000 BTU cockpit air conditioner with strategically-positioned vents throughout is a welcome answer for those hotter boating days. A sculpted, curvilinear lounge on the port side, available in Ultraleather™, is proportioned so that two couples can enjoy conversation along with the experience of boating with the captain and first mate.

At mid-cockpit, the 45 Yacht’s double-tiered, L-shaped cockpit wetbar/beverage center to starboard features a molded sink, refrigerator, available cockpit grill, ice chest and trash receptacle, cleverly concealed by a hand-crafted, Corian® countertop. The available cockpit LCD TV/DVD and the standard iPod™/MP3 port are delightful features that will provide hours of enjoyment on the water, while the six-speaker AM/FM/CD stereo, powered by a 300 watt amplifier and a 200 watt subwoofer, surrounds all aboard with high-fidelity audio.

The Formula 45 cockpit layout is designed especially for longer adventures as well as day boating fun with friends and family
