    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    I've played with props a little bit on it and currently have a 19p three blade stainless Hill Propeller on it. I liked the way the boat got out of the hole better. Top speed i've been in the mid 40s but really the boat spends a majority of its time just cruising around 30. These boats with...

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    I'm good friends with the guys over at Eliminator. They did it for me when i replaced the drive and motor. I dont remember what the carpet price was.

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    I never thought much about the use of the controls as i've had many styles of offshore type boats with these controls. I feel right at home with them. You do need to back the throttle all the way down before you can shift from forward to neutral or reverse. These also had an adjuster in the...

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    Thank you! I'm really happy with how it turned out. Still going to fine tune it a little more. The switches are almost impossible to read. Getting rid of the black gauges, and wood made a huge difference.

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    Thanks! With the 350 and Alpha 1 i've seen 46 so far. But that was with 6 people full of coolers and gas. Still need to play with props too.

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    Wow! What a project this thing has turned out to be. I don't think there is a single thing that we haven't touched, repaired, or replaced on the boat. In the last 12 months it's gotten a new outdrive, motor, sections of the floor replaced, new carpet, and tons of plumbing and electrical work...

    So, how's the boat show?

    went last night. Lots of awesome boats! Very excited for Jake and the team at Eliminator and what they have in store. The layout is retarded though. You have to walk almost all the way to the bottom of building 4 before you can get your first beer. Plus the way they have to event laid out...

    Havasu to Stateline (offroad)

    In the 4-5 times i've done it we have never had a problem. The storage boxes on my RZR do lock so it keeps all the tools and spares safe and I pull the Ipad out of the car for the night and put it in the hotel room.

    Havasu to Stateline (offroad)

    I've stayed in Primm multiple times via SXS. When we stay at Whiskey Pete's we park them in the top of the parking structure and cable them to the fence. At Buffalo Bills we take care of the valet guys and they rope off a section up front for us and keep an eye on them all night. One word...

    Nashville, TN

    These are all great recommendations. Nashville is one of my favorite town to visit, I've been 5-6 times. Last time we were there we found a resturant called Biscuit Love in the Gulch. They have what they call Chronic bacon. It is some of the best bacon I've had. It is now a must stop for us...

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    The navigation, interior, and dock lights were not working so I pulled the console apart to see what i had to work with. Looks like I’m going to have to spend some time rewiring everything. I don’t think Magic’s standards were very high back in the 80’s, along with a previous owner than...

    Magic 240 Legend Restoration

    So, for some reason these boats have always held a soft spot in my heart. Maybe its the fact that my grandpa owned one when i was a kid. But after months of looking i finally found one for sale. This is a 1989 240 Legend with a 350 Mercrusier and an Alpha 1. Overall the boat is in decent...
