I dont believe thats an excalibur in the picture, looks more like an early 80's superboat.

Nice looking hull
it looks like my 24 thats titled as a '73 eagle

I really like the way it looks but I can't find any information on it to see how they were built and if it's even worth that kind of money. Seems a bit high to me but I really don't know without knowing the construction.

it looks a lot like a Bill Farmer Excalibur pre Wellcraft

By 1974 there were at lest 10 boat companies making this same hull. I have a 24' Cobra with twins with this hull. Even this west coast company [Panther] had them.

Looks like a 24x7 Excalibur pre Wellcraft..
Wow, 455 Olds,Bronze propeller and a Volvo outdrive..
Never even heard of an Olds being used in anything except Jetboats.

I thought the 455 olds sounded a little odd, but the 27P bronze prop sounds pretty weird also. Seems like it would be way over propped.

Looks like the same boat to me. How do you like it? Run OK? What kind of setup do you have? The guy is willing to go down to $5k, think it's worth it?
