This boat is a deal at that price! It would take twice that to create a similar boat assuming you already owned a Magnum 27!

The boat was owned and raced by Skip Gabler.

Skip sold her back in 2007 to the guy who had Legends Marine [ they make Mr KLEM GEM look like a saint ] here in Michigan,who really screwed it up. OSO member JETFIXR in Ohio bought it & repaired all the damage. He later sold it to the latest owner in Reno who has it on ebay now. Here it a pic when Jetfixr came to the old school reunion a few years ago.

Greg ,JETFIXR fixed all that was bad that Legend did. The Legend owner died & it was left outside in November & the engines blocks cracked. Jetfixr built new engines and now all is well. When we talk I will tell you about the Klem comment, nothing to do with the Short Circuit Mag now....

Here is more info on this Mag from OSO from back then.
