1976 SANGER CUSTOM BUILD 800 HORSE POWER. Turn Key.

Due to being laidoff of my job, sadly my boat must be sold to help out with the bills. I have entirely too much invested in it. I would never sell the boat otherwise however, finances are causing me to sell the boat. I can show, start etc the boat to anyone wanting more information. (570)-244-6145. Located in San Diego, do not let the (570) area code through you.

Professionally built 1976 Sanger Jet Boat. I have over $16,000+ in the professional engine buildup alone! I am only selling because I was layed off of my job, and now the boat must be sold. The boat is in great condition! The boat does have it's normal/typical scrape and spider cracks in the fiberglass from trailering it over the years (1976). This is a original 1976' Sanger Jet Boat. Trailer is original and boat has never been repainted. The original 455 Olds has been removed and I had the crate 502 BBC professionally buildup for this boat. Boat comes with it's original dual axle trailer in great condition, tires are in good shape also. I hold the Title to the Boat and Trailer in hand, clean and ready to go. I do not want to sell the boat as I will take a major loss, however due to my current situation I must let it go. NADA value for this boat with the original 455 Olds is $13,500. I had the crate 502 BBC professionally machined and built from the cam up! Engine Shop Build alone is $16,000+. I've had all of the maintenance done at a local marina here in San Diego. I welcome all open offers on the boat. If your not familiar with the River Rat Drag Boats please check out our Rat Club. DragBoatCity.com I welcome all questions please email if you have any! I will quickly respond to all open offers made on the boat. Boat runs strong and is very FAST! I have clocked it with my GPS at 90 mph

while not at full throttle 5,000 RPM. The boat seats 5/6 Adults. Interior is in great shape and I recently had the front seats re-upholstered. Boat comes with a custom boat cover and new bimini matching top for it that has been been on the boat other than for photos . I'm probably forgetting something, but I think I got about everything down here. Boat is for sale locally, I reserve the right to remove the auction early if the boat sells locally first. Boat is sold as is. Buyer must pickup the boat in person here in San Diego, CA. I will not ship the boat. I am a motivated seller! Must sell make offers. Any further question email me here at anytime. Also the boat is setup with a saltwater flush line - female to female- however, I have never put the boat in salt water, boat has only even seen freshwater lakes and rivers in California.

FYI: 5/11/2013: Today washed, buffed, and polished the boat and took additional pictures of the Bimini Top for people who asked to see it on the boat. Pics are posted up now!
Update: 5/13/2013: Electric Fuel Pump installed on boat.
(5/15/2013) Boat is at local Marina having the timing set and tuneup. VIDEO coming soon!

Very nice boat! I'm interested in your Sanger. $11K is within my range, the wife says nothing over $20k. I'll give you a call tomorrow. When would you be able to show the boat. I'm located in Mission Beach.

Ron.

Great Boat! Are you neg. on the price? Are you interested in trading it?

« **Reply #5 on:** May 21, 2013, 12:41:54 PM »

sdriverrat: Yes, I am local to the Mission Bay area I'm more northern San Diego. I can show the boat at anytime. I got your texts this morning, I will call you today. Thank you, I've spent a lot of time and money on the boat. My job loss forces me to sell it. It is turn key.
You can call anytime.

Mechanical pump on a 502?

« **Reply #7 on:** June 13, 2013, 09:24:53 AM »

Since the boat has been posted here. I have had a new starter, coil, and electric fuel pump prodessionally installed. I left the mechanical one on as a back up, however I have the mechanical delete plate if someone wants to remove it. The boat sits covered in my garage. We had it out on Memorial Day ran great! I also had it re timed and prepped.

My 75' Sanger is still for sale, however, I have not advertised it in awhile. Since CA, I have relocated to Pennsylvania / Maryland area. I have installed new fuel lines, new water lines, braided fuel line with gauge, new spark plugs, elec. fuel pump, new header gaskets, had the 750 db pump holly carb adjusted, all new bolts, screws etc, new coil, and I also have a Sanger emblem correct for the year from Sanger Boat MFG from Sangers very own vault.(Extremely RARE, and almost impossible to find!) I'm sure that I forgot things. Trailer is redone, new l.e.d. lights all around, new fender walls, wiring, harness connector. Yes, the boat will run 80 + mph. I have not seen another Sanger here on the East Coast since I moved here 7 months ago. I also have a second pair of Bassett Headers that will go with the boat. Custom boat cover, bahmi top. Full length stingers. Lots of Photos. I have video of it up on youtube, search 1975 Sanger Jet Boat (4 videos)

I currently have the boat put away inside in storage for the winter, winterized.
(The boat is currently located in Pennsylvania, I live and work in Maryland). I could help with transporting the boat if needed.
The boat is also currently registered and up-to-date until Dec 2015' via San Diego, California
Titles for the boat and trailer are clean/clear and in my name.

I am selling because I need the money for a down payment on a house.

$11,000. No trades wanted, sorry.

If your interested call or text me. For those who messaged me on here and I missed you, my apologies.

Says needs to sell due to the fact he got laid off and has financial hardships

Then....

Trades welcome for newer car or muscle car of equal value, no junk.

First indication that something is fishy!

Yeah that's there as well. Top post it was a 90mph not full throttle. Second post 80 + boat. Lots of HP issue's. B impeller at 5000 rpm not close to 800 HP. 9 to1 NA motor better have a 300 shot of NOS to see 800 HP. I have never seen a NA BBC with 800 HP with 1 750 holley. We could go all day but this is a nice boat just not all the facts are on the table.

Ding, ding, ding... We have a winner!

It's obvious that this guy doesn't have a clue what he is talking about, and is grabbing at anything he can add that he thinks will help him sell his $4000 boat for more than double what it's worth.

Just a short list of "issues" I see with his listing...

A "30 over" bore will NOT add 30 cubic inches to an engine!
The valve covers will NOT clear the needed valve train to obtain 800HP
Crower doesn't make pistons (oval or otherwise).
The newer upholstery appears faded across the tops
And if you read his latest update, he states that it has "full stringers", while in the pictures you can clearly see it is a standard Sanger engine box 1/4 stringer boat.

I sure hope everyone that looks at buying this one has a clue and doesn't get taken.

CrewChief:

Yes, It is .30 over makes it a 509ci
Pistons are Lunati. Dome racing pistons open chamber.
The Stingers continue bow of the boat not 1/4, however yes the photos only show 1/4 box in the rear.
Crewchielf - Keep dreaming you can sell your boat for $4000. I know what I have invested in the boat and what the NADA value is. (I have also had it appraised).

The motor is around 740 -750hp. It will go 75-80mph all day. I've gps the boat. (No NOS and never seen saltwater) The motor could use a 2nd 750 holly carb. HP would be +- depending on timing adjustments, octane, carbs, fuel pump and compression ratio.

Speed is about having the right amount of HP, RPM, Impellar Pitch, Aerodynamics, and Money. Not all HP. Mostly RPM Range with Pitch.

If you don't like it that's alright with me.

The interior is not perfect it could be re-done for $800 - $1500.

I wasn't going to.... but I can't help myself. I'll tread lightly. My 454 bored .100 over and stroked with a 4.250 crank and 4.135 rod's only comes to 505CI. And a 671 Mooneyham blower, aluminum heads, and 2 C&J worked 850 dp Holley's made a respectable 826 HP on the dyno.

And, impellar blade pitch is the same on AA, A, B, C, etc. It's the impellar size that makes it an A,B or C cut..

But good luck with your sale. Maybe you'll have better luck on the East coast where jet boats are rare.

« **Reply #24 on:** November 07, 2014, 06:46:28 PM »

The motor is a 502 .30, I believe that is a 409. 502 std bore 4.466 so .30 4.496. Mine is a 4.75 stroke.

jimpen:

Yes, I was org. up to trading/selling the boat due to being laid off. Since then I relocated to the east coast before I had time to seriously sell it.

I cannot say where I work now however, I am in Washington, D.C. and am purchasing a house this is why I am selling the boat. Lots of great trade offers, sorry. I'm neg on the price at the same time, I will not give it away. It costs $$$$ to build the motor alone.
