SCT

As you may know Mike Burris has a 25 w/2 omc's for sale on S&F. Trade Winds in IL had a 28 Last Fall w/2 200 stockers. Sharky has a real nice 28 w/2.5's but I don't thinks its for sale, Good for reference though. There is another on S&F w/22" brackets w/mercs. The 28's are nice w/a big cabin. Kinda small cockpit.

I you may recall I rigged and sold my 1985 convincor. I rigged it with 2 nice running bridge ports on manual CMC brackets righ on the transom. This boat flew like a big hydro stream. It was quite a site at very close to 80 w/26 choppers at close to 8000. It did have the annoying hop that these early designs were know for. I can contact the guy that has it if you wnat me to.

It was a nice 60MPH boat w/a Monte V8. It was much more fun with the twins but you had to know how to drive it. Hammer it through the hop/pull up the K-planes and hang on.

ZT, The 28's will be real hard to find. When I picked mine up last year and contacted the factory, they told me that they only built around 19 of the outboard models. I have a rare boat in "like new condition" Just got lucky I guess...
The boat was rerigged with new Merc 2.5 EFI Offshores and Gaffrig guages. I am in the process of upgrading the propshafts to the thicker models.
