Default Anyone interested in my 73 Sedan ?

It's in great shape but would still be considered a project. It is mostly original with 2 x 300 hp Crusaders mated to Volvo 270 outdrives. The hull, transom and stringers are dry and solid. The gelcoat is great but the deck could use a new coat of paint. I spent quite a few hours getting the Port engine to run correctly and found a restriction in the exhaust manifold which has now been repaired. It runs 52mph on gps with the original 20 pitch Nibral propellers. I don't actually know what its worth so will take offers if anyone is interested. I thought I would put it here first for collectors since it is so close to original. I will list it locally if no interest. Im in Canada near the US border at Watertown NY.
I would consider a trade for a single engine sport boat as well.

Looks like a recipe for disaster. If one of those boards slipped, ouch

At least the weight is on the keel where it ought to be . Unlike some disasters I've seen in many a boat yard that should know better . Just as long as it doesn't blow any harder than 5 mph !

Nice boat btw .

Lol, we just raised it that high to back my trailer under it. Normally it is blocked properly!

So what's it worth boys?'
I am struggling with selling it since I love the hull and wave slicing ability's at speed. The only things I don't like are the cable to helmet steering and lack of trim on the outdrives. I am still considering SX or DP conversions, strokers and hydraulic ram steering. The problem is that this is a well maintained great working boat that is nearly 100 percent original right down to the props! Perhaps there are many originals out there already and I'm being silly but I don't like chopping up History. Anyway, selling it and getting an updated single engine big block Magnum was what I was thinking of doing.
