Default Where did the Strength & Honor Cig End Up

I haven't seen any posts with the Strength & Honor Cigarette since last year's Desert Storm run. Anybody know where it is now?

It would have been in the Middle East a long time ago if it wasn't painted Stars & Stripes.

I think it's the $hit and would own it in a heartbeat if I could.

Any idea what changes are being made to it? I can't imagine what I'd change to make it better. That's my favorite Cig of all time.

You want pics or video!?

Boat's a bad muther focker! Neil and Tim brought it to the Desert Storm Poker run in 07 and ran it around for the weekend.

Here's a few shots and some video...

The boat was purpose built (Kilo Record). There for it had some special features. I assume they're tweaking one of these features such as the carbon fiber fuel cell. It was problematic with the fuel filters! But I don't know exactly what they're doing to it.

Like I said, it is just amazing in person! and when you sit down into that cockpit it's awe inspiring. Just the knowledge alone that you're sitting in the fastes Cigarette ever built! SICK!

Here's one more vid showing Tom and Neil coming into the channel...

Brandon, you sure you're not thinking of the new one they built? To race over seas. Identical to the way the S&H boat looked when it was the Kilo boat.
