Project Magnum Missile

[Zonkercraft]

This is an early Magnum Missile. Probably a '68 model. The hull is in fair condition, but probably needs a transom replacement, and maybe more. It's really has a terrible paint job. There is no rigging, but I do have what's left of the original interior. I probably can come up with steering, if required. There is no trailer with it. Asking $500 or best offer. Thanks!

What is the boat in the back ground with what looks like twin inline down housings on it?

[Zonkercraft]

It's a 20ft Sidewinder, wogi. There were 2 built by Ken Baker when he owned Sidewinder, in California. I believe this was the first one built in '68. I have no idea where the second one went to. Yes, it ran twin inline Mercury's. It's also for sale, but considerably more costly than the Magnum.

The 2nd Sister (Stars / Stripes) sat in a University Place WA front yard for years then disappeared. It reappeared many years later (2018) in a Craigslist ad in Yelm WA with a "free U haul-it" price tag. Ad ran for 2 days then disappeared. I suspect the hull is now somewhere in Anacortes WA.

What I do not see in both hulls is the aft cowling...……...both are long gone.
