Ive been in the market for a 28ft "big water" boat and have been looking at Pantera and saber. uncle sent me a link for this cig. http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o26987-en.html
Ive spoke with the consignor a few times.... Has been redone a few years ago. has GM crate 383 fast burn engines. with many automotive msd and such which i hear is junk on boat.
here is a little list of stuff....
* Twin 383 Stroker Engines 425 HP 450#'S Torque
* TRS Drives
* Sea Strainers
* New Carburetors
* Billet Trim Tabs
* Gaffrig Controls
* Imco Exhaust Manifolds
* Aluminum Heads with fresh water cooling
* Power Trim
* Leg oils and zincs just done
* Power Steering
* New House Batteries & Starting Batteries
* CD Stereo with Sirius Satellite Radio
* Billet Seat Mounts
* Billet Speaker Grilles
* Billet Fire Extinguisher Mounts
* Hardin Gauges
* GPS Speedo
* Oil just changed with Synthetic
* Steel Bunk Trailer with new hubs, brakes, bearings, etc.
Now what is all this worth???? i see the one on ebay and people say asking 22k takes it..... what would this one be worth and does not have a finished cabin. has all the gel coat to finish but current owner striped everything out since being from the 1970's and never planed on using it. but i would need to finish it and be sleeping on it on weekend trips and such. Oh the owner told me he would recommend a upgrade to external steering since the stock TRS stuff is lacking a bit.
Lets hear your comments. Thanks Kyle.

I sold my 74' 28 ss with twin 383's for $17,000 about 1 year and 9 months ago. It had stern powr drives - Dollar value vs. TRS ???? Mine was a black boat - $ deduct for sure. But I also sold before this enonomy - $ plus for sure.
My guess on value - $15K to $20K max. The 28's are a GREAT BOATS!!!! Pay what your comfortable with - you will have fun with it.
