HISTORY OF EDENCRAFT //
There is no boat more majestic than a 233 Formula thundering to the fishing grounds. Behind the wall of white water bounds a fibreglass hull honoured by time and respected by seamen. The origins of the 23 foot 3 inch hull lie in American power-boat racing. In the early ‘60s, Don Aronow, a charismatic, 34-year-old property developer, turned his attention to boat building under the name Formula. Power-boat racing was Don’s hobby, and during the 1960s, speed was the order of the day. He engaged a team of gun designers including Jim Wynne, a race boat driver, naval architect and inventor of the stern-drive, and his partner Waltman Walters, among others. The first boat under the Formula name was a 233 – named Cigarette after a famous rum-running boat from New York. The boat (and hull) went on a winning streak, launching many successful boating interests guided by Don. The famous hull shape found it’s way to Australia via John Haines and the Haines Hunter brand name, later reincarnated bigger and better by Edencraft.
