Formula 430 Super Sport Crossover

The ultimate luxury crossoveropen-air performance meets cabin comfort.

The Formula 430 Super Sport Crossover defies categorization. It blends the open-air performance and commanding sightlines of a center console with the full cabin comfort of a cruiser — a boat that genuinely does both, without compromise. Built in Decatur, Indiana, where Formula has been crafting sport boats since 1962, the 430 SSC represents the pinnacle of their crossover lineup.

This particular boat commands attention the moment you see her. A striking gunmetal grey hull with silver accents gives her a presence that white-hulled boats simply cannot match. But the real story is under the cowlings: brand new quad Mercury 450R outboards with only 15 hours and full factory warranty. That is 1,800 horsepower of fresh, warrantied power on a proven hull - an extraordinary combination at this price point.

Add a Seakeeper 6 gyro stabilizer and you have a 43-footer that delivers a stable, comfortable ride whether you are cruising to Bimini, anchored up for a raft-up, or running offshore in a chop. The Formula 430 SSC is docked in Fort Lauderdale, FL and ready for immediate delivery.

Performance & Power

1,800 horsepower with zero hours of worry.

The headline here is simple: brand new quad Mercury 450R outboards with only 15 hours on the clocks and a full factory warranty. That means you are buying proven, reliable power with the peace of mind of a new-engine package — on a boat that has already been broken in and fitted out exactly the way you want her.

The Mercury 450R is the gold standard in high-performance outboards — a supercharged 4.6-liter V8 that delivers explosive acceleration and effortless cruising speeds. Paired with Mercury SmartCraft joystick piloting, docking and close-quarters maneuvering become intuitive, even in tight Fort Lauderdale marinas.

Beneath the cockpit sole, a Seakeeper 6 gyro stabilizer works continuously to eliminate up to 95% of boat roll at rest and underway. Whether you are anchored up in the Bahamas or idling through a No Wake zone, the Seakeeper transforms the onboard experience — no more spilled drinks, no more seasick guests.

  • Quad Mercury 450R — 4 x 450 hp, supercharged V8, NEW with full warranty
  • Only 15 engine hours — essentially brand new powerplants
  • Seakeeper 6 — gyroscopic stabilizer for a smooth, stable ride
  • Joystick piloting — Mercury SmartCraft for effortless docking
  • 500-gallon fuel capacity — extended cruising range

The 430 SSC is that rare thing: a quad outboard fishing boat with a full cabin. The factory leaning post and rocket launcher carries six rods across the transom, the Seakeeper 6 holds her dead-steady on the drift, and the FLIR thermal camera gets you to the grounds before first light. Fish all day, then shower, grill, and sleep aboard.

Cockpit & Lifestyle

SmartZone layout built for all-day entertaining.

Formula's patented SmartZone layout is what separates the 430 SSC from anything else on the water. Nearly 40 linear feet of uninterrupted cockpit space flows from the bow seating, through the lounge area and helm station, all the way aft to the cockpit and swim platform — no walls, no barriers, just one continuous social zone.

Forward, a deep bow seating area with power lift tables converts from a sunning lounge to a dining area in seconds. The aft cockpit features an electric 240V grill, a power lift dining table, and port-and-starboard seating that comfortably hosts a full crew for sunset cocktails. A 40-inch Samsung TV with Bose sound bar turns the cockpit into an open-air entertainment center.

The SureShade retractable sunshade extends aft coverage at the push of a button, while natural teak vinyl decking across the cockpit and swim platform delivers the look and feel of real teak without the maintenance. LED underwater multi-color lights complete the scene after dark.

  • 40 feet of SmartZone cockpit — bow to stern, fully connected
  • Power lift tables — bow and cockpit, dining or lounging
  • Electric 240V grill — cook onboard in the aft cockpit
  • 40" Samsung TV + Bose sound bar — cockpit entertainment
  • SureShade retractable sunshade — push-button shade
  • Teak vinyl decking — cockpit and swim platform
Cabin & Accommodations

Full cruiser comfort below a crossover deck.

Step below and the Formula 430 SSC reveals its cruiser DNA. A queen berth in the aft stateroom provides a proper overnight retreat, with a 43-inch Samsung TV mounted for movie nights at anchor. Forward, a convertible dinette drops down to create a second sleeping area — giving you genuine overnighting capacity for a couple or a small family.

The full galley is equipped with a Kenyon electric cooktop, microwave, and refrigerator — everything you need for extended weekends without relying on shore power or restaurants. A private stand-up head with enclosed shower rounds out the accommodations, so you never need to head to the marina facilities.

The cabin is finished to Formula's exacting standards, with premium upholstery, solid hardware, and thoughtful details throughout. With 56 gallons of fresh water and a 43-gallon holding tank, the 430 SSC is genuinely equipped for multi-day cruising from her Fort Lauderdale home base.

  • Queen berth aft stateroom — full-size sleeping quarters with 43" Samsung TV
  • Convertible dinette — drops to create a second berth forward
  • Full galley — Kenyon cooktop, microwave, refrigerator
  • Private stand-up head — enclosed shower, 43-gallon holding tank
  • 56 gallons fresh water — extended cruising capacity
