Magig 28' Deckboat

[Artv]

I really like this boat, did anyone get pics from the boat show of this boat. If anyone has info on this boat please post it (price, options). If you own one of these what engine would you recommend.
Thank you,

[SCUBA STEVE]

That is my dream boat as well. I would say an HP500 or bigger. :rollside:

[Artv]

I started saving my pennies, we plan on ordering one at next years LA boat show. Just dont tell the future wife.

[Havasu_Dreamin]

Outcoled has one with the 525 and he loves it!

lol, you might need to save quarters though. Depending on options you are looking at probably $110k. Focking boating industry. lol :rollside:
I have thought about doing what Bunny did buying a good hull and having it totally redone. My mind is always thinking of something though. :p :rollside:

[AirtimeLavey]

That's a nice boat...good luck!

[1ASKYDV]

I have one (since 03) its been great...no complaints. I have the HP525 and it runs real good with it.
120 trouble free hours.

[OutCole'd]

Yes I do have one with a 525 (much faster than 1ASKYDV's boat :D ) and love it. Feel free to Pm me with any questions.

What did you have before, and what are some of the comparisons? :confused:

lol, save some for my too! :cool:

[Artv]

Hey scuba I'll try, The price of 110k is steep. I'll hook you up with my can money.

[1ASKYDV]

What did you have before, and what are some of the comparisons? :confused:
The post probably was a little confusing....The 525 is the original motor so no comparison really, I was just saying it runs real good with the 525.

[SCUBA STEVE]

Hey scuba I'll try, The price of 110k is steep. I'll hook you up with my can money.
Sweet! Thanks man. If I were to get that boat my price for all the shiz would be in the 130-150 range. So throw in the bottles in newspapers too. :p
Are you still on the waiting list for homes here? :confused:

[SCUBA STEVE]

Not confusing, I wanted to know what your previous boat was before the deck. :D

[1ASKYDV]

With the 525, whats top speed?
In spring or winter with 2 people and half tank of gas a little past 80-82...

[OutCole'd]

Sweet! Thanks man. If I were to get that boat my price for all the shiz would be in the 130-150 range. So throw in the bottles in newspapers too. :p

Trust me, if anyone is really serious, Call them. You can do WAY better than 110K with a 525.

[1ASKYDV]

Sorry...no coffeee yet...before the deck I had a 22' Magic magician with a 350 mag.

[1ASKYDV]

not faster, not even close!!! :p :cool:

Bill, when is the first trip out?

[SCUBA STEVE]

Are you sure??? I look at hot boat mag too, yes hot boat has a mag. lol
I know they can cut corners here and there, isnt the base like 80k?
I am also talking with a stripper pole and a stereo system that will make you go def. :2purples: :2purples: (j/k about the stripper pole)

[SCUBA STEVE]

Sorry...no coffeee yet...before the deck I had a 22' Magic magician with a 350 mag.
I take it you have a much better ride now. Is the wind really that much of a concern? :confused:

[boat4life]

I have one with a 496 HO with a whipple and all new guts in the motor mine runs high 80's and I have 280 hours on it. Looking for some good photos of the 30 ft. deck.

[1ASKYDV]

I take it you have a much better ride now. Is the wind really that much of a concern? :confused:
Yaa..much better ride. The wind doesn't ever bother me (I'm always driving!) These boats do act as a wind tunnel at times but the layout advantages far outweigh a little wind.
And, there is really only 1 seat that gets bad. It is the one directly down the middle, the rest of the seats are pretty well protected.

[OutCole'd]

Bill, when is the first trip out?
Nothing in the works yet. Probably late March for me. Did you ever stop going out?

Outcole'd owes us a ride from last season, :p I'll be sure not to sit in that seat. lol :rollside:

Let me know when you're headed out...Haven't stopped going, the weather has been too nice. Last weekend did the desert bar on saturday and a lake run on sunday! Life is good!!!

[1ASKYDV]

[SCUBA STEVE]

Make sure to let me know when you head out to the local lakes here in AZ. I would like to introduce myself and hang at the lake.

Just to let you know. March 20 is my first trip out with the boat at Pleasant. It is a big weekend out there that weekend.

Cool, it will be in mid April, taking the boat in for some service April 9th, and will probably be ready to tear it up the following weekend. :rollside:

Thank you,
I have one with a 496HO still stock at this point but probably going to do the Raylar kit soon (just waiting to see more results). Mine runs decent but in the summer time when loaded and full tanks it only runs about 58-60 top end. In the winter not loaded and full tanks it sees about 66 or so. Before we installed the stereo and loaded all the anchors and crap we saw 71 in the winter.
I would recommend to go the absolute biggest motor you can afford. I would even look into something other than Merc like Peto or Teague. I think for very similiar price to a 525 you could get a Teague 600 or Peto that also come with a 1 year warranty. If I were to build the same boat again it would definitely have a Teague or Peto but I guess you live and learn right?!?!
OH YA....you should be able to get a way better price than $110k with a 525.

Thank you,
That is one of the boats I am considering. If I do buy it I will opt for the TCM 900 (whipped 540) I would imagine it will be able to pull anyone skiing at that point;)

[Magic34]

Works for me. That will be the first available weekend for me as well other than 3-20, so maybe we can meet out there. I have meetings out the a$$ until mid April (there is a dune trip scheduled though).

[SCUBA STEVE]

Thanks for all the info, scuba scared me with the $110k
Are you guys going to make me look up the hot boat issue where they tested all the deck boats? :hammerhea I skip all the la la and go right to the price as tested part. :eek:
Maybe I got it the price confused with conquest? Now you got me thinking lol :cool: So how is it Ultra can sell their 23 deck for $75k (price listed on the web) and you can get a Magic 28 deck for under $100k? :argue: :wink:

[Artv]

Its all under control.

[boatnam2]

i dont think you can not even touch a 28 magic or conquest with a 525 or teauge 620 for close to a 100k.

[SCUBA STEVE]

Its all under control.
LMAO, Oh yeah and be sure you don't mention anything about Scuba Steve, they'll jack the price up. lol :smile: :cool:

That's what I thought, but some Magic owners are saying other wise. :cool:
Sh*t if that is the case, I might refi the house and have them take the skier off my hands asap!! :p :wink: (J/k Mrs Scuba will kill me) :argue:

[Artv]

Kilr, can I take your wife with us to the boat show on Thursday?

[SCUBA STEVE]

Offer Kilr some deltaco and a movie and he'll say yeah. lol :D

Want to bet? :wink:

[bohica]

Conquest with the 525 and all the goodies = 120K OTD :D

[Artv]

Deltaco, i was thinking more like King Taco.

[NashvilleBound]

Want to bet? :wink:
Reaaallllyy?/?? Talk to me......

[Artv]

Scuba, have you had king Taco before?

[OutCole'd]

Reaaallllyy?/?? Talk to me......

[SCUBA STEVE]

Is that a trick question, I am from East LA... of course. :cool:

You could get into the 30' w/twin 496's for a little (in relative terms) more than that.

[SCUBA STEVE]

Just checking,
That's almost like asking if I have ever had Tommy's!
Oh forgot to tell you, no Tommy's in AZ! WTF!! :D
And very few in & out's

[Artv]

The next time I drive down to AZ I’m going to bring you a #1 from Tommy’s and a burrito of carne asada from king Taco. On the burrito did you want green or red Chile?

Could you drop a cupid's dog in Vegas on your way?

[Artv]

Could you drop a cupid's dog in Vegas on your way?
No problem, i'm taking orders.

[boatnam2]

well maybe you should refi scuba if outcole'd can hook you up with a 28 with teague 620 for a 100k.that would be a good price imo.

LOL, I'll be down in CA this weekend loading up!! :D
Last time I was there, I ordered chilli cheese fries. I get to my in-laws house ready to devour those mofo's, to only find regular fries in my bag. Oh I was pissed! :frown:

Sounds like a great deal, too bad I just can't make that jump right now. I probably could, if I never wanted to gas it up and use it. lol I am trying to hold off on the refi'n, get some things situated, then let loose towards the end of the year. My want list is like a mile long right now. :rollside: I want to jump on something soon though, like homes, boats are not getting any cheaper. :yuk:

[OutCole'd]

Actually I am talking about with a 525. I have no expreience with the teague set up.

[Havasu_Dreamin]

Conquest with a 525 should be around $105k. Same holds true for new Hallett 285 Deckboat.

[bohica]

My price was OTD including the custom cuddy cabin, dual ext. steering, 6K in stereo and sales tax.
If you can get a Magic for 100K otd, i'd go for it. That would put the sales price around 92K before tax.

Did Cartoyz do the stereo? how in the heck to you get a cuddy on a deck boat? :confused:

[NashvilleBound]

LOL....dont take that tone to me....I think I am your elder....
Got your PM...thanks.

[JB in so cal]

Did Cartoyz do the stereo? how in the heck to you get a cuddy on a deck boat? :confused:
He had Conquest do a "one up" mod; the pass. - side console was modified and enlarged to accomodate the cuddy. Pretty sweeet. I saw pics on here when they did it. Maybe still in here, somewhere.

[bohica]

Did Cartoyz do the stereo? how in the heck to you get a cuddy on a deck boat? :confused:
Yep, Car Toyz did the stereo.
Here's a pic of the cuddy cabin area during buildup. Lost an ice chest doing this, but it's perfect for the kids. Fits 2 kids easily or one adult. Put a dvd player and some nice fans to keep it cool. Also has a deck hatch on the top side.

Forgive me for this question if it is stupid, is the boat done? Would like to see the pix of the finished product. :cool: Looking good so far. :cool:

[bohica]

Picked it up last August. This is all I got. By the way, I sold a 34' Magic deep V to get this boat. Ride in the deckboat blows away the Magic.

I guess we all love our boats.

[Ivan Dan]

i dont think you can not even touch a 28 magic or conquest with a 525 or teauge 620 for close to a 100k.
I know several people who paid around $92k with a 525 (this was last season tho). I would imagine for about $100k you could get a Teague 620 which would be ideal in my opinion. I would think a Magic Deck would see high 80's with the TCM620 which would be killer. WOULDA SHOULDA COULDA! Hopefully the Raylar kits work out for others as well as it did for Shadow. Someone with a Magic 496ho needs to try one of these setups....who's game?
I know you can get deals on these things you just have to work at it.

Better than a deep v? Wow! Test drove a Conquest Deckboat with Keith but was just not comfortable. I'm sure it was me, not the boat though.

[bohica]

I had been a die hard deep v guy my whole life. The license plate frame on my truck said "Deep Vees don't pussyfoot around." Took a ride on the deckboat and couldn't believe the ride. For overall lake boating, it's hard to beat a tunnel hull deckboat, however if a nasty storm comes up like the one that came thru Havasu last year, I'd take the deep v in a heartbeat.
Does take a little getting used to not having the high free board.

Bohica,
I'm the one you took a ride in the Magic deck with last spring. :cool:
Thought i saw you a few times in Hav...but wasn't sure what you new boat looked like!
I'll keep an eye out for you this summer.
Larry

[missboatnam1]

i think that is a good price i payed 95k for the lavey deckboat with a 496.when i took a test drive in the magic and went and talked to keith at conquest last year both were low 90's with a 496 ofcourse that was the first price they threw out i didnt try and work on teh price since i wasnt buying.

Thanks, for putting up the pic. :cool: I believe you can get a deck under 100k, but for me I would want every single option aval, including the Stereo, Stereo, Stereo, Stereo, some RD billet, Stereo, Stereo, oh yeah did I mention the Stereo? :rollside: :cool:

[Kilrtoy]

Want to bet? :wink:
Ok what did you pay for your boat :idea:

I would go with the CONQUEST, that boat is awesome and KEITH is a stand up guy
