Talked to Chris yesterday. He is going to look up the info he has and compare it to the serial number on mine. Good talk with Chris. If it’s all true then this was the last in 86 (not the last that was in 97) and the original name was "Mouse Trap". I'll let Chris chime in when he gets the info together. He said the original owner traded his Ferrari in for this boat.

Changed Oil and filter
Replaced both impellers
Started 1 engine, realized gas lines need to be changed after small leak (Glad we caught that one)... Want to get it 100% mechanically sound before I start on interior.

I remember Mouse Trap from my days as a dock boy at River Landing.
Good luck!
Chris sold me a 78 28SS about 20years ago. Great rough water boat!
Hey Chris, how about you find me one of those 86 20' Cigs you sold.

Ok. A lot of work done. Went ahead and did rough testing to see what issues we have. Not bad for first time out in 3.5yrs. https://youtu.be/Zmud0DzubfQ

Good work yaroshc.... You have a special boat... I redid my 28' a few years back... What started off as a simple project turned into a multiple year resto-mod... We ultimately put a new transom in her in order to accommodate the bravos... The hull/deck joint on the stern prevented us from raising the drives high enough though... In order to get the X dimension closer to perfect we had to change the lowers to the imco shortys... Steve Lopez of Legacy Custom Marine did an incredible job... There might still be pictures on his website... Some one may have already mentioned this but I think the very last 28 was built by Neil Hernandez at Cigarette when it was still on 188th street..
