01-20-2009 07:34 PMCool boat- and an incredible piece of history. I'd love to see it redone to the original Maggie's configuration.
The $640,000.00 surveyed value is probably scaring bidders away.

Chris, which boat was the one that was/is for sale at LCM? Seems like it would be a good candidate for a Maggies livery (unless she's got cool history of her own).
I dig the big metal boats. Some day when I find a place to keep all my crap that doesn't cost more that the crap itself I'll pick myself up one of these big metal monsters!

There's photos of 'er in Searace.
Wonder if that boat at LCM is the old Maxon boat? (looks like trips vs twins) I called about it a couple years ago and they wanted a ton of money for the boat...

01-20-2009 10:17 PMActually, wasn't the Cougar V-bottom just "Mercruiser Special"? I don't think the "Maggie's" was added to the name until he began campaigning the Cougar cat in I think it was 1985?

The Popeyes boat was Mercruiser Special. The yellow one at LCM was MAXON.

Ah cool. Thanks guys. I can't imagine what it would cost to build a boat like that today...

01-22-2009 09:55 AMThe LCM boat is the ex Tim Ciasulli boat.
By the time you stick enough power into it to break 100, you could be into an older Skater 46 for about the same $$. That's one heavy SOB.
Aluminum boats are cool but they're LOUD.Last edited by Chris; 01-22-2009 at 10:00 AM.

Big Al Bought the 46 Vee from George and Finished 58 Minutes behind him in the Miami to New York race, The day that race started down here it was like the earth stood still I have never seen it so calm!
