Why? Do you want to lay the boat up with the same exact materials? Basically, the only fiberglass roll material available then, was 24 oz. Woven Roving, and Fiberglass Matt. Oh, and plywood. Should be easy to figure out.

With an open checkbook? A bonded hull & deck could be built well under a 1,000 pounds.

Just saw in one of marine trade e-mails that previous owners of Magnum are bring back some of the classics including the 27'.
Production is to be in Sebring according to the report.
No idea how far into this they are. Only know what I read.
