Anybody remember this Mag from the Miami area? She was a T350/TRS 27' Sport. Someone fabricated a stand up faring with center steering over the stock windshield faring, great work, but made her pretty ugly. She had a red & white triple stand bolster all 4 gas tanks and two round holes cut in the engine hatch for the flame arresters. I was told there was sexy girl painted on the deck, (someone might remember that.) I don't see any fade marks from names, numbers or decals on the sides other than the traditional Magnum Marine decal at the back. I wonder if she ever got wet after her conversion from pleasure to a race ready stand up center steer floating bomb. I've tried the Mag thread with no success, maybe someone here will recognize this old girl.

No, I modified the legs to fit on the space between the hatches. All of them are 100% functional. It took a little engineering but if look close at the picture you can see the middle leg is bent backwards. The outer legs I simply cut, bended to fit and then rewelded them. It had to be done low enough for the fold down to function and high enough for the hatches to work. The middle leg got bendt backwards so I have access to the accesplates.
Here is what it looks like:

Sweet boat. One more for the classic boat pic thread. I bought her just this last December and have yet to get her wet.............the boat that is
1990 28 Apache. Featured in the Miami boat show. She still sports a one off original custom paint job from the factory. Stock 454 365hp mercs have been beefed up to 460hp.
