A friend of mine worked there and told me it was in the shed so i asked him for the name of the owner and phone# . I called him and made an offer but he didn't bit ,a few weeks later he called me back and the rest is history.

Re: 28ss
NJgr8,
I looked at the 28' Cig in Barnegat 3 weeks ago and the owner told me to "make an offer". This boat needs a ton of work $$$. The owner told me the boat "runs great"-but one only needs to look under the engine hatch to know the boat is NOT in running order. The interior also needs to be completely replaced. One would be better off purchasing a complete boat-elseware...

Runs great?!?! HA! LOL When? 1988 maybe!?? It's a real shame cuz 3 years ago it might of only need 3/4 of a TON and a bunch of $$$$$$$$ to get it back on the water Well you(I) just hate to see it rot away and be forgotten, only to be cut up for trash in another year ... It's got CRT #'s it is the real deal But, I would of obviously offered with all that work in mind ... that is exactly why he'll never sell it He prolly thinks is worth $10K or so in the condition it's in ... Uh yeah right!

) surrounding around the rub rail. It's bad Sean. This could keep you busy for a quite a while! 
Maybe some 496HOs in there though might be nice 
like the Cafe. Would couple big blocks fit in there ... or only small blocks?

Re: 28ss
there's a 28 sittng in east dover marina called thumper , i don't think its for sale but it pretty clean for its age. If it was for sale it would be a great boat to start a resto
