running 28'mal mag?
 

whats it worth? 1977 280 merc. maltese magnum.

Single 280 TRS or alpha style?

twin 280s trs. 30 year old survivor.

$19K-$29K depending on condition, trailer, ect. I would think low $20K's would be a fair price.

Here's a link to the ad.....

OK, I'm confused. MM, are you looking to buy or helping to sell? Is it the one in Roger's craigslist ad or another one?

thats the 1. i am trying to help j sell the boat so i dont buy it. its a 30 year old boat. time to redo.then its good for another 30. with a handle like magnummark its a natural for me.

the boat runs.$ 500.00 "deposit" and j will give you a test ride. he is in virginia but will show the boat. more then fair.mm.

Your PM description sounded like it needs a lot of work, hence the confusion.

Already been in contact with Jay and he'll get a call from a local that's offered to put eyes on it for a friend of mine. Looks like there's plenty of people working both sides. We'll see if we can save you some money. :D

its a 30 yr old boat. its a survivor. i bet the bilge hasnt been painted in 30 years. 30 years and its still intact and running. says it all. even a good pair of shoes need to be resoled.

he told me they were 230hp's?

what are 230s.? maybe 280s?

123.

456.

been there when there not right. eg.

I thought 5.7/350's are 260 HP ????!!!!

But what do i know ! LOL

Nice boat ,,if i had the cash i take it right away.:ernaehrung004:

maybe today. the 280 pkge. trs. 4bolt 350 cid. all the mag and cigs had them. my 1975 35' cig awesome came with 280s. marc berman [BAM] PUT IN 454s for original owner. cya.

WOW,,,so the old 350's had 20HP more then today ??? mmmhhhh,,,cool !!!

Thanks MM:ernaehrung004:

ttt.

Mark, you need that one !! Would make a nice spare.

Actually in general the new engines make more power, they are rated differantly. The 2 barrel 5.7 is rated at 250 propshaft HP, the old 260 was rated at the crank using a more optimistic correction standard/factor.

Looks to be priced right. I bought my 1976 28 Cigarette back in 1993(?) for $12,000. It had TRS, 350's, trailer, perfect interior, solid hull, and everything worked great mechanically. I bought it soley with the intention of redoing it.

Anybody know approx weight? NADA doesn't have info for Magnum but I found a Cig28SS shown at 4800lbs. Would that be without engines/drives?

4800 is about rite rigged in 1969. with mercs a little more 1977 a little stronger. 69 big power option was 302 h/m. with alumn exhaust. 2 barrel

that IS a nice one mark...
sorry i didnt have time to talk... out to dinner w/ the mrs.

that is why i called you. mm.

this was barnys boat. 1977 all white from chi. cya.

Good looking boat. Love the classics

I would be all over that if it was a sport. price seem fair. but its been in salt for a long time.

mm, this still around?

dont think so. I almost went to keywest w/ $6000 in my hand but his neighbor ended up buying it. One motor was seized and he later told me it was a train wreck.
