I'm sad to anounce, but I'm selling my 27' sport Magnum it is a 1976 hull less engines and drives....it is not a finncial bind that causes me to sell just making room for the new boat.
I've come to the conclusion that it's restoration is still several years off and most certainly at the age of 64 time becomes more precious for me and my family.....I've owned the sport
now for 6 years and spent hundreds of hours just on the hull (it's perfect structurally)........I was just about to turn the corner and start rigging when an oppurtunity presented itself too
good to deny!.............I'm giving a few local friends first shot before I advertise...................I'll still be in the Aronow family of hi po boating, but rather, this time on the ocean boating.

i don't blame you Pete. The cig will make up for the absence of the magnum.
I wish I had the room and time for it. It will make for an excellent project with a lot of the heavy lifting done already.

I thought this was finally going to be the summer Pete !?! I understand how these projects get stretched out, I'm 6 months behind on my Midnight and counting... its a lot of work completely rebuilding these boats. So enough with the tease, what did you get?

Marshall.............This last week posed a lot of drama, and I'll spare all the details, but it ended up in total satisfaction & I'm totally stoked!!.......a 1983 35' rare kevlar mistress totally restored & and then put to sleep for somewhere in the 18 to 20 year period in a climate controlled building in Punta Gorda FL.............There's a huge back story on the boat!

Scippy, congrats! I really don't understand the "tow it or ship it" comment, I do understand 6 mo. storage in Fl and cheap flights to/from Orlando and cheap renta cars. Heck while it is already there why not take advantage of the situation. Anxiously awaiting photos. I'll send you some of my progress soon, getting closer.
Best of luck and have a BLAST on the water.
