Holy moly.

:eekdrop:

Is that GOOD or BAD ?

That is frickin awesome!!!

I am genuinely please that you like it, Thank You

Kalaazar

Yeh, really does look incredible, especially now the back end is properly sorted - or at least we'll on the way...........

The teak deck looks amazing as well, need the seats next!!!!

Whilst your sticking the knife in, why don`t you twist it a little more to the right. That way your bound to hit an artery or two perhaps !!

Wow
 

That will end up being the the most beautiful Magnum Sport out there....congraltions. Bud

PS have you steering hub...will send them out next week,unless you are coming to the States and I can send them to you where ever you are staying. Bud

Good...:)

Kalaazar........fit and finish just beautiful!.....after Sandy's wrath good to be back.

Kalaazar it looks MARVELOUS,, :ernaehrung004: Jeff said you won't believe how nice the paint & teak looked when he saw it last summer.

Kalaazar,
Absolutely beautifull! Seriously over the top.

You have certainly invested a lot of time and effort and forethought, with craftsmanship.

Guys,
Thank you for all of your kind comments, I love what I am doing here, it maintains a thread of originality with a twist of the more modern.
Mario, you have expressed what a lot of others are probably thinking, it`s a bit OTT. However at present I would say that it is just very full on, the OTT part is comming next, still lots more to go.

Bud, I will PM you

K,
Your sport looks beautiful, I really like the teak floor. You going with orig. pedistal seats? Whats the thickness of the teak deck inlay?

Thanks - Marshall

Hi Marshall,from a man who owns a peach of a boat himself your kind comments are appreciated.
Knowing I wanted to use the original pedestal seats and wanted increased stiffness we overlayed the original cockpit floor by bonding and screwing another layer of marine ply down first in order to present a good bonding surface for the Teak both of which are 3/8" thick. The fore deck insert is also 3/8" with a Bull nose edge down to the GRP.

Kalaazar boat looks great..... Makes me want to start shopping for a Mag again. Keep the photos coming. Good Job. Marshall you have some competition coming from the looks of things here.

Looking brilliant ol' chap. Sterling! Proper regal that is.
Certainly a candidate for the Queen's next flotilla.

Kings English
 

Jeff...you are spending to much time over there,now you are talking like them. Bud

Hi Jeff,
I`m still so grateful that you were able to visit us this summer and provide all those little tips about how to restore a Magnum 27 and get up the noses of all the other Magnum owners at the same time.
Your input was invaluable not to mention finding and shipping all those difficult to find parts that all that other Magnum owners would kill for whilst you export them in the dead of night. However trust me I wont say a word to anyone else, OK.
Kind regard
Kalaazar

Bud,
Firstly Jeff is an honorary Englishman by special decree.
Secondly writing in that vane I think that the last time he was in England must have been 1812, we've all moved on since them, however poor old Jeff is still stuck in the past but he is so quaint, don`t you know !

Tax on Tea
 

For the honorary Englishman to ship over unknown parts...did you pay tax on it like we had to pay tax on your tea???

Cheerio Bud

Bud,
Reads like your still sore about that, but look at it from our side, it cost us a whole country.

Bye bye for now old chap.

Ian

Your King was to serious...
 

But you got cheated out of a great holiday...Thangiving...don't you wish your King had some sense back then and didn't take things so personal.And a great day to you old chap. Bud
