This is my 1984 210 cuddy. It was a 350 chevy, but when rebuilt, I instaled a stroker crank for 383 cubic inches. It also has aftermarket heads and a rollor cam and rockers.

So far I think I've got the oldest boat in the bunch. A better picture coming next week.

My boat is a 1983 355AC. She was built in the fall of 82 and was one of the first of a production run until 1987.

Named 4EVANSache, she is berthed in Goderich, Ontario, Canada from where we travel lakes Erie, Huron and points between.

Regards,

Jeff Evans

199 BR 190 Signature. 5.0 EFI Merc. It's not exactly new nor vintage, but we have alot of fun on it. I like the space in this boat, it has a wide beam, same as longer boats from the same generation.

I change boats a lot lately. Buy low, sell high... Now I have this '92 Overnighter... a nice roomy cruiser. I wonder how long this'll be around?
Definitely on the Sea Ray 'band wagon'

SteveRay · #37 October 18th, 2007, 07:35 PM

Just picked up this '05 Sea Ray Sundeck with a 4.3MPI. She only has 27 hours on her.
Gonna miss our 180 but this new doll has
soooo much more room. Sea Ray bandwagon here too

SteveRay · #42 December 29th, 2007, 11:48 AM

She's gonna serve you well!
What a sexy looking boat......Is it a 240 or 260????
Time to update the signature Magster.
What's the powerplant/drive combo.....details man, we need details!
Congrats

magster65 · #43 December 29th, 2007, 04:17 PM

Thanks man! It's an '06 240 5.7 mag mpi / bravo 3., vacuflush w/holding tank, full camper canvas, hot water, Navman GPS plotter with the Navman VHF interfaced, satellite radio, nice Clarion stereo, snap-in carpets, wet bar, small cooktop, fridge, microwave, shower in head, transom shower, shore power... it has more crap than my house! I sea trialed it yesterday... the water wasn't great and it was breezy... raining... typical! The boat handled just like my '03 240 did so no surprises there. My last one had a 5.0 mpi... the extra power of the 5.7 is quite noticeable. We were on a river during the test run and I do my boating in the ocean so it's a little hard to say but I think it's way under-propped. The cruise was 29 mph @3500 rpm which is so-so but when he throttled up (about 43 mph) the rpm's were still climbing at 5200 and there was 3 of us in it with a full tank of fuel. I think it has 22" pitch props on it and I conveniently have a set of 24" pitch at my buddy's shop. I'm hoping it'll do high 40's at wot and cruise at 32-33ish with the right 'wheels' on it.
How exciting! wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Not my boat, but a friend's '77 Sea Ray Amberjack 300. He's been working on it over the last few years and it's really sharp! It has new twin 350 Merc inboards. His next project is to remove the bow rail for a better profile. I think it looks great the way it is! Not pictured is the teak helm chair, which set him back $1200....He keeps it locked in the cabin!

I think this is an excellent example of how an older boat can be brought back into shape with a little love (and money!).

magster65 · #46 December 30th, 2007, 12:18 AM

Nice! Look at the room in the cockpit... that's great

SteveRay · #47 December 30th, 2007, 10:10 AM

I know we are partial but you have to agree whether its a classic or new boat Sea Ray lines are timeless!

magster65 · #48 December 31st, 2007, 02:33 AM

I agree.
Stylish as always.
I'm not shy to pull up to my rich friends yacht in my lil' Sea Ray!

Thanks man!
I haven't been up towards Kelowna for years... I'm due for a road trip!
I usually keep the boat in the driveway for 4 or 5 months then moor the rest of the year in Sidney. We're pretty lucky with the islands n' stuff... awesome boating here. Last summer we 'whale watched' 5 times... the last time we had an absolutely huge 'sucker' breech about 100' from us!!!! My boy was all happy and excited until he saw that... then he slowly sunk down in his seat and said, "We better go now daddy!" (which we did)

You fiberglass guys are nuts... did you lengthen your boat 4'?

That's awesome!

... and if anyone was wondering... the 24" props worked out perfectly... 32 mph cruise and 46 mph @ 5000 rpm wot (with the canvas up).
