Default How many of these are left?

Since we have so much knowledge on this board, I wonder how many of these are left? My wife is always telling me to get rid of my "junk" and I tell her it may be one of the very few still around. What do you think?

I forgot you had a Marauder........that's a great little boat!

They were only made for a couple years......apparently Apeco dropped that model pretty quick.

Magnum says they believe only 20 were made........can't be many left.

I saw one year before last at the Cresent Lake Kilo Run here in Florida. It was a beautiful boat. I didn't even know Magnum made one before I saw it.

Hmm, now I see it's a different boat. Is it the same hull?

I don't think it's a Magnum......unless someone changed the bow.....it looks more pointed?

Here are the two little boats they made......the Marauder and Missile.

When I get over to Magnum I will see if I can get any info on the Missle,& Maruder from my sources not many around... not a safe boat ...very easy to flip backwords .I have also learned that they changed decks on some of the boats,hulls were the same different decks.
Bigbroadjumper what has been your experince with.. it what are the ID #s on the back of the tranmson.???

Marauder is a mono hull and the Missile is a tunnel. My boat becomes a had full around 60 but I think that is because the steering is sloppy. I want to upgrade the steering to hydraulic and that should solve that problem. Other then that... lots of fun.

My wife hates it! She thinks it looks like a shoe.

When i first moved to Florida 22 years ago i met a guy who had a missile.He used to run the chit out of it and he would consistently beat my 19 foot V in 2-3s all day long in the 60 mph range.The ride was very similar to a 18 Skater that i had ridden in having grown up in Holland ,Mi.It was suprising how well the Missile would run in the 2-3's.
