Hello,
I thought I should introduce myself and show off some pics of my "old school" '79 24.
I bought it last year from the second owner out of Erie, PA. It's got a 468 BBC with a gale banks twin turbo set-up making 8lbs of boost. The boat is said to do 80mph. I have not up that fast yet...
This is a great site with a lot of info and nice boat, glad to be here.

p.s I am in need of starboard BBC "log style" Merc manifold. If anyone has any leads please let me know!

TSP - thanks for sharing.
She looks incredible - and in great condition.
This site is all about preserving the classics, while also promoting the new.
You have a beautiful boat.
If I haven't already said it, Welcome to Serious Offshore.
And I mean that from the whole gang.

Sweet looking classic. Very unique with those turbos!
80 doesn't sound like a stretch with that power plant. :sifone:

Thanks for the comments. I love the classic offshore look and feel. Not that the new boats aren't nice. My next step is to find my way down to Miami for that Bimini race.
See you on the water...:cheers2:

Dude! Sweet!
