Is there anything better than spending a warm day on the water and relaxing with loved ones? The aft-facing sun lounge with dual-position backrests is ideal for lounging and soaking up the sun.

Livorsi® instrumentation puts you in control at the impressive leather-wrapped stainless wheel, which provides a comfortable grip. The visually stunning brushed graphite dash with Liquid Black panels, wood burl finishes and a Ritchie® compass takes the spotlight. The chrome shifters & throttles and in-handle outdrive trim in combination with the bezels achieve a look that is both understated and sporty. This complements the sturdy construction and precision-stitched upholstery.

The Formula 290 luxury Bowrider also includes several great entertainment features. A boat on the open water — or even docked at your favorite spot — is the ideal place to socialize and celebrate. Some of the best 290 Bowrider features are ones that will keep you and your family entertained all day long are described below.
Features maximising comfort:
Drink holders: Staying hydrated is essential for long days spent lounging on the water. Fortunately, the Formula 290 has room for the whole family. 19 conveniently located drink holders will keep beverages stable, even when the boat is moving.

This feature includes an integrated sink for easy clean-up and a Corian® countertop that holds a 17-quart Igloo® cooler and trash container. The wet bar is also equipped with an integral 316L stainless steel safety rail: Another secure spot to hang onto in open waters.
Storage space: Having plenty of onboard storage space is key to enjoying a fun day with your friends or family. It also keeps items off the floor, which is a tripping hazard. With your Formula 290 Bowrider, you won’t have to choose between bringing inflated tubes, water skis, cooking supplies, fishing gear or wakeboards. Fit all of this and more in the 290’s spacious storage compartments, including some located under the seats and lounge.
Stereo system: This luxury bowrider was crafted with sought-after entertainment features, including a premium stereo system. The Clarion® AM/FM stereo with an iPod/USB port and Bluetooth connectivity has a multi-feature, waterproof remote mounted on the dash.
