I've been on the boat and given it a good look over for a potential buyer- it's all there as far as I can see. Runs very well and rides like a Cig 28- like a tank.

Cool boat.... How fast?........ Are you going to buy a boat with some color on it this time? All white or black/white is not much of a color wheel.....

I was on the boat last summer and ran it very briefly. The white is kind of striking. The pics that are up so far don't really do the lines of the boat justice. Cool boat. For 35 years old it ran and showed pretty well. I considered buying it but with my height it would have been more comfortable as a sit down boat for me. The white really worked tho... and that's from a guy with a crazy paint job. If Ted doesn't mind... I can look for a couple of pics that I may have of it.

EVERY engine looks bigger in a 28ss (if you know what I mean). :)

If you look close you can see the fuel rails. That boat looks like a perfect cadidate for a pair of 450 horse 383's. That will get it going.:drool5:

Or 550HP small block 454's. Or just leave it alone and enjoy the fact that it reportedly runs.

Why would you be thinking about re powering? I thought it was a perfect boat?

Not sure that any 1973 boat is perfect, but they ran as expected when I was on the boat last fall. The engines were not red flags.
I also have considered replacing older, but working engines. Especially when I can't find a new boat, I think about tweaking the old.

Only chatting here as the auction has been closed, and the boat can't be bought or sold before the 22nd, on account of the Bartus Marine Birthday Boozapalooza rule of 2009.

Go fly that lil ciggie. :D
