Seebold Eagle 265 with twin outboards?

[hondatech]

Any pics ?

I bought a 265 eagle out of jersey last year. Twin outboard. I would love some info from you guys since we are the only ones talking about it. Mine is white and red

The boat was stripped to a bare hull by previous owner. It is solid , needs a ton of love. Saving for a second pro mag for it and a flotation bracket, also needs helm and all it has is 1 bolster is in boat. My Rabco hustler will be finished this month and then I start this one.

I went to look at a 1990 seebold eagle with twin 200 outboards on it, I heard it was factory option, but there was like only 6 made? Anyone have any info on these boats?

I have one of these boats. Purchased from original owner in Trenton NJ, I think it may have been forum member SilverFox in the mid 2000's. Boat is still stored at the marina where the original owner purchased and stored the boat. It is in pretty great condition, always rack stored indoors. Has gill brackets that still have the original stickers on them. Completely original, no mods/repairs/paint. Trenton Marine repowered with counter rotated Opti 135's in 2010 and I did have them install a custom made aluminum plate on the inside of the transom. Still run the same original 25" chopper props, only the gear is 2.0 instead of original 200's that had 1.75 lowers. Runs like a charm, mid 50's at 5000rpm. Can get over 3 miles per gallon at minimum plane speed, around 30mph at 3100rpm. Have been thinking about selling it and found this thread. After searching on internet, it appears that it is a very uncommon boat, 5 or 6 made. I have a bunch of pics I can post.

I am the owner that you bought it from. We live in Florida as you might remember. My friends that boat in the area told me you had repowered the boat with Opti's. I am glad it has been a good boat for you. To be honest I still miss that boat and the great times we had with her. It was a rarity to have Seebold build one originally for outboards. If you want PM me with pictures and particulars on selling it.
Thanks

Wow, would never have thought that I would find you the original owner. Hope you enjoy FL, we are thinking of looking down around Sarasota in a few years. What a great boat, only thing other than repower was that I replaced the helm with a new unit about 8 years ago, but other than that it has been 100% reliable. After running those 200's up to 6,1000 rpm a number of times, when I had a gear case fail, I decided that I really didn't need to be going that fast, 50 is just right. Paint has a few faded parts on the transom and deck from when it had to be left at the dock while they repaired the rack building, but all in all it cleans up great, I will post some pics and pm you price.

Wow, the boat is still looking great. You took good care of her. It really makes me a little nostalgic to see the boat again. Do you still have the original trailer? Thanks for the pictures and looking forward to your PM
