Ahh I was away in FL last week and hadnt known it sold. I was keeping an eye on that one for a possible twin turbo set up with fuel injection. That could have been one nasty little ride.

still can just not mine

nice! that looks my my boat on the right, but it doesnt have the docking lights. Chris told me my boat was one of the last to leave to head north to CT. it was unrigged. maybe they installed the lights up there. Mine is an 86, and was sent to offshore speed and ski after the originals owners sold the dealership to someone else.

The white boat is a 20.

Hey Phil, I thought that was a 20 as there are no deck hatches, and just looks smaller.

Default 26 sutphen

chris I was away when you contacted me last week. Good luck with the new boat. I bought back my 26 BOXER. With a 525 merc it ran 80. I have the 509 blower motor that i raced with ready to go. It is good to have it back. If you have any questions regarding setups with your 26, call me at 401-261-6225.

Not that I doubt the masters but what makes you so sure its a 20?

It looks like its just on a wierd angle and not chocked up as high to me.

could certainly be a 20 still though.

Both of those boats were sold new by Murdon to the same owner and lived for many years side by side in the same boathouse. I'm pretty sure the white one was about six feet shorter than the grey one. It's a nice boat with tan interior and a 350/Alpha.
