Don Aronow on the “Maltese Magnum”, 1966

MAGNUM HISTORY

The Beginnings 1966-1968

In 1966 Don Aronow, now offshore champion and boat builder, built himself a new 27′ race boat, which he named “Maltese Magnum”. The boat became World Champion and Don Aronow built a small factory to build more boats just like it: Magnum Marine was founded.

Don Aronow built his new factory on NE 188th Street in North Miami, right next to the factory he had just built and sold called Donzi. In another two years he was to build a third factory on the street, Cigarette. Thereafter, the street was called Thunderboat Row. Don Aronow also built a 35′ race boat; both the Magnum27’ and the new 35′ were winning championships all over the world. To these two very successful models, Don Aronow added a 16′ ski boat, the Marauder, and a 16′ tunnel hull, the Missile.

In 1968, Don Aronow sold Magnum Marine to Apeco.

The Apeco Years 1968-1976

Clayton Rautboard from Chicago owned a very profitable photocopy company called Apeco, but his real passion was boat racing. He therefore bought Magnum Marine from Don Aronow in 1968. Apeco soon dropped the Missile and Marauder lines, which were not profitable, and continued building only the Magnum 27′ and Magnum 35′. Sales were strong.

Apeco made three different models out of the 27′ hull: the Magnum 27′ Sedan, which had a raised deck with sitting head room inside; the Magnum 28′, with a rounded deck which also gave a bit more interior space; and, of course, the original 27′ sport race boat. The Magnum 27′ sedan became the ideal Patrol Craft.

In 1969, an Italian from Rome, Marchese Filippo Theodoli, saw the Magnum 35’ at the boat show in New York. He was immediately impressed. This was exactly the boat which was needed for the Mediterranean: a boat that an owner could operate by himself; a boat which had the speed, the seaworthiness of a racing hull, and a boat which had interior headroom and accommodation. The speed added to the safety. The deep-vee hull gave a comfortable, dry and safe ride. The hull was laminated by hand in fiberglass and was strong and practically unsinkable, even if an owner ran aground. Filippo Theodoli was so enthused and convinced about the future success of this new hull that he immediately bought a Magnum 35’ and became the exclusive European Magnum dealer.

“Renegade”

Renegade went through an extensive refit including new motors in 2018 at a cost of over $125,000.00 She is a very stable, seaworthy vessel with a captain that has 40 years of experience. The captain also is a retired offshore powerboat racing champion with Super Boat International and APBA with over 100 races to his credit. Cruise in style to the Stuart Sandbar, Jupiter, or Ft. Pierce!
