That Starfire was in the Magnum cataloge, also didnt Sparky owne it at one time ? And as of late wasn't owned by RICHARD A DROZE SR here on OSO & Lake St Clair.

The picture in post #1 is a recent photo. This boat has been in Ontario for a long time.
PM me if you're interested in getting in touch with the fellow that's selling the boat.

There must be two Magnums painted this way, this OSO post is from March 08.

From Vicious marine, Richard, I used too own your boat before the other guy on this thread, Which is my buddy Ron. Your boat is the oringinal Magnum Starfire brochure boat from 1981.
That boat was leased from Magnum to the DEA as a drug inforcment boat for one year, Then sold to a man named Phil Mebus in detroit and kept at gregory's habor and then it sat a millers marina in the water till I bought it in 1988. It was oringinaly red, white and blue striped and had STARFIRE down the sides. I have seen you trailering it past my shop at north river and I-94 a few times last summer , That boat was always my favorite and one of the best boats I ever owned.
When your in the area please stop by and say hi ! Ron is the one that painted white that boat had a siren right one the tip of the bow you can probably see the inside were it was patched at one time from where it was mounted. Have you notice that the hull is glassed around the intire parameter of the outside ? I got tired of blowing the rubrails of the thing in Lake Huron when the boat flexed. God I love that boat!!
It was balenced just right with the triple tanks , It flew great!
I have two Magnum projects going on in my shop right now that we are restoring and building. Stop by.

oooooooooo, the plot thickens.
I hope these are two different boats, or someone's story is wrong, cuz that original striping is DOPE!

Different boats - this is a 78 (info's at home) with 5 tanks I believe.
