Well, what do you think it is???

30' Cigarette-type Project Boat & Aluminum Trailer.
Newly Rebuilt Twin 454 Engines, purple powder coated- we have receipts for $13K+ on engines alone!The Bill of Sale says it's a 29' Mirage, although we originally thought it was a Scarab. We have a friend who does offshore racing- he thought it looked like his Maverick with a taller top deck added to it (about 4"). We have a 30- Scarab that has been completely redone- almost EXACTLY the same as this project- we are happy to share pictures.The engines & center console are the only things that have been completed. It does have K-planes and hydraulic helm/ full hydraulic steering.We have two transmissions and a decent aluminum trailer.There is no interior- it is gutted, so this project is ready to start!We will be happy to send more pics from different angles.

Looks like the engines are stored in a gas station bathroom.

That's funny , for a minute, i thought you had been to the Palmyra NJ. would be Avanti manufacturing would be facility. i kno for a fact they stored motors in the ladies room of the former gas station /used car/ boat lot / Avanti Plant.

Are you pretty confident on that one?

I thought Goldberg looked pretty confident also.




The risers that come up to meet the back of the side windows, look alot like Avanti to me,but man these guys sell, swap loan, rent,steal,splash hulls/ molds so often it's tough to tell who's what when sometimes.

I think Mobilemercman has it nailed. The title they have is correct.


Look at the sid elines between the two boats, (remove the windscreen in your mind).
 
I'm gonna have to get back to you on that one.
It seems, I've made my quotas for the year, in so far as removing things in my mind.
