1990 Top Gun
Cigarette 38' Top Gun 1990 Silver anniversary edition

Any pics? Is there any difference between this and a "regular" Top Gun. Going to look at one next Wed, wish me luck.

1990 Top Gun
After almost 100 views and no feedback, I'm guessing that there is no difference between this boat and any other Gun of that era. This boat will require a transom replacement. Is it worth keeping the TRS w/ Borg Warner trans (fresh rebuilds) and later upgrading with Konrads? Not interested in Bravos, might as well go with a bigger drive if you're going to go through the trouble of re-rigging for a different set-up. Just my 2 cents.... Any help or advice is appreciated, I've been chasing Cigs around for a year trying to find the right one, this is it.

What power/price is the TRS boat? Are you looking for big drives?

Power is 454sc Hawk motors, fresh. I have a lead on some nice Pfaff engines (900s???). If I get my hands on those, I will need some serious hardware out back. I'm not going to discuss price.

If this is your ultimate goal, you might consider buying one turn key. It will probably be cheaper in the long run and you will be boating right away.

I am traveling next week to have a look at it. It's the earliest I could get away from work, the anticipation is killing me. This boat has some neat history behind it. I don't want to give too much away because it's not my boat yet.

I would venture a guess that it is like my "pro-Series" cafe - nothing but but an advertising gimmick.

Yeah, I'm not real sure where the "Silver Anniversary Edition" came from. Not familiar with any "special edition" '90 Top Gun, it's why I asked.
