Jaguar 80s, Fjord 40 open planning to buy a serious powerboat

Double Trouble
90% I will be the proud future owner of this boat, would like to have any info, fact or advice about its history and what you experts of this historical Mags hulls know about it..
I know there was already some discussion on it so I guess you all know which boat Im talking about (even because I dont know yet how to post pics on the forum)
By the way I will let her cruise the Mediterrenian sea cause I will bring it to Italy, the boat seems in really good conditions, not sure about the Volvo transmission..
any info is really appreciated
thanks
ciao Nic

I bought my 29' Mirage from the same owner [Woz here on OSO] 2 years ago, no problems. The Volvo drives do not have transmisions, Merc copied the Volvo drive cone clutch for there Bravo drive. The Magnum looks good from the pic's I have seen,, only saw it out on the lake a few times and she was hoist kept.

Hey, Eddito, would you happen to know of any 27' foot Magnum Sports, with or without power, around the Florida area for sale? I'm looking to purchase one and bring it to P.R., but the only one I found in FL was sold the same week I contacted the seller. By the way, your magnum is one of the best I've seen since I've been looking into them. Thanks for your help.
Sorry for the off-topic guys.
Double Trouble looked great in the picturs I saw. Good luck with your purchase and I'm sure you'll enjoy your new boat!!
Julian

Thanks for your quick reply!
Actually, I live in Puerto Rico, although I do have family in Miami.
I'll give you a call tomorrow to talk about that Mag. Right now my dad is in Miami, fot the Ft. Lauderdale Boatshow, so if there's a way to talk to the owner he might be able to go look at it while he's there.
Thanks again,
