LEOPAJM - that Saber still has the mag engines, the broker doesn't have his listing correct. The boat is in Ft. Meyers(sp) and is still owned by the original owner.

START: Green/Red Buoy “ER": 39.26.198N / 76.01.057W

Leg #1: 9.43 miles @ 247M/235T

Waypoint #2: Green Buoy “1A”: 39.21.539N / 76.09.773W (You must pass North of this buoy.)

Leg #2: 4.27 miles @ 236M / 225T

FINISH:Green Bouy “41": 39.18.904N / 76.13.149W

Total distance: 13.69 miles

NOW:
Since some insurance policies won't cover you in the case of a race, we need to make this a predicted time rally, with the award going to the boat that gets to the finish line closest to the appointed time.

I reckon that time should be 8 minutes and 12.84 seconds. You do the math.

'99 with twin 350 MagMPI/Bravos - about 70 gps fully loaded with fuel and gear and the wife and I. Cruises very efficiently at 50-55mph.

pic of the galley- there is an enclosed head across (kinda small but we stow gear there anyway), side facing lounges and v-berth forward. Most freeboard and cabin of all the 28's we looked at.
Pat builds a helluva boat!:)

One more of the panel- AT does as good a rigging job as anyone in the industry- very clean wiring and routing.
Instrumentation by Livorsi:) .

I wouldn't win any races against some of the boats listed with their twin big-block power (unless I Whipple or ProCharge), but it certainly can run in the same big water.
If it weren't so damn far to Chesapeake Bay....... :(
Come and play on Lake Michigan sometime!!:)
