Ebay Phantom 21

[Captain Chaos]

You cant see a whole lot in the add; but i'm sure Cye and some of the local boys must Know this boat.

If it starts, surely any 21 + V6 has got to be worth the asking?

[Burty]

it belongs to a guy called Barry, he's owned it for about 4 years.
its a little untidy but thats eaisly sorted. he seems to change his mind all the time 1minute he's selling it then he aint then he is again.
a bit like the captain. first he's getting an engine then he aint then he is and so on
the pictures on ebay are crap try these.:D

[Captain Chaos]

you just got love those instrument pods!

could be a cheap boat for somone eh?

[Burty]

its got an offshore leg but no bullet box and a Chopper prop

[Captain Chaos]

merc perfected the "scruffy bastard" look,

that could be my 200, or indeed just about any v6

[Burty]

its quite an old P21 cus its got the riveted screen I'm sure Jon or johnny will know when they changed.
I spoke to him a few weeks ago and i know he wants around £4500 for it so i bet it gets taken off ebay before the end unless it makes that kind of money.

[JamesM]

Its an 87.

[Captain Chaos]

i think circa 89 was the change. but i'm prob wrong. When i have a functioning boat, I'm going to pester the life out of JF to help do a Phantom owners website.

zzzzz time my trusty late night friend!

[Captain Chaos]

i'll rephrase that......i'll help him

[JamesM]

and that XRI is 200hp not 220. they call em 220's but there not.

[Captain Chaos]

out of interest you got a mph figure for it?

[Burty]

its good for 70mph
it was as fast as johnnys red one

[JamesM]

fort you gps'd it at low 60's

I only did 70 once, one up in mirror flat conditions. Most of the time 65-67 two up is more realistic for RedDevil. When I raced him it was a bit choppy and I was unbalanced cause I was on my own.

[Burty]

and you had fuel starvation:dizzy:

[JamesM]

yeah, and my plug leads had come loose :D

[Burty]

Not my lead dude my actual plug
:o

[JamesM]

:cry: I couldnt keep up with you Johnny cause my plugs were falling out :cry:

[Jon Fuller]

It looks like the face lift model, ie' it has the MkII deck, and the MkIII hull, so it's on the change-over from MkII to MkIII.

Re: Mr Chaos's comments about a Phantom club/site, I will do something, need to have a chat with someone first.

So he 'out drove' you! :lol:lol:

[Captain Chaos]

Chat away Gingerboy.........

A certain domain may come in handy, perhaps i could arrange some hosting?

[Captain Chaos]

I was thinking more in terms of the fact that i sorted some hosting for the old man, basically to have unlimited email addresses.

Can see there being much use for the webspace other than with it!

Thought that if said site required a gallery.......it may need large space and thus we could use some of me quota

Erm no I meant that when I'm on my own in my boat it lands funny cause all the weight is on one side and he didn't beat me I just couldnt get away.

And your right it has the old deck but all the spray rails go all the way to the transom.

[Jon Fuller]

sold for 2.5K! cheap boat!

[Captain Chaos]

where were all the 2.5K boats 6 months ago!!!!!!

[Silversurfer]

that was a cheap boat, had it been resprayed do you think?

[Captain Chaos]

I've seen plenty of Phantoms in that powdery blue, so i'd guess not.

Who would choose to respray in that colour?

[Silversurfer]

Are you spraying your capatin? Got any pics of the build so far?

[Captain Chaos]

dont be a joker!!!!

ask me 1st week(s) in Jan, i'll have made some headway by then.

hate sprayed boats:puker:

[Silversurfer]

looks a bit dull all white though capatin!

[Captain Chaos]

vinyl stickers, i was thinking of all Martini Livery:D

[Silversurfer]

Nice to meet a fellow connoisseur ! ;)

[Carl]

martini livery is the dogs

Nope it is gel coat with vinyl stickers. The gel coat is a bit faded but you would be hard pressed to find a crack in it anywhere, which for an '87 is good going.

[Silversurfer]

Wish I had brought thats one! at that price too!

[Captain Chaos]

I do like the Martini stuff, but woz joking !

To be honest I was suprised he let it go for that much, he may be pulling an ebay swifty and that might be his mate that bought it if you see what I mean.

[Captain Chaos]

ebay swifty,

such shananagans!

[JamesM]

I'll find out and let you know :D

[Silversurfer]

Capatin what about tampax the blue would look nice with your white boat. We could call you a pussy! :laugh:


Would be better on a bat boat though - now with wings as Claire rainer used to say!

[Silversurfer]

I know feel terrible when i write things like that but you ;lot all do it and he was taking the piss out of me graphics!

[Captain Chaos]

errrrrmmm Why?

you wanna piece me Mattyboy.... skinny wretch?

[Silversurfer]

Less weight = more speed :D

[Captain Chaos]

I wasnt taking the piss out ya GRAFIX! I love all that stuff.....Martini & repsol especially. But i ws insinuating i'd be unoriginal and plainly steel your style.

Also, yours was a race boat so its ok to have that stuff on it.........I think i'd feel a nobba if i had it and just pretended i was hard!

Snigger snigger!:pirate:

[Silversurfer]

Going to do the basic on the river thames at Alllhallows in April (other side of the Thames from Leigh-on-sea)will your boat be finished for then?

We could settle it the old fashioned way - in a race :duell: :D

[Jon Fuller]

to make it fair, you'd have to have a cement mixer (full) in the boat with you!

[Captain Chaos]

If the race orginisers supply the wooden spoon (and also some valium for my co pilot).

Dont be silly i'm a bender!
