I love how they shortened the tops of the back seat so when you are looking at the boat from the side you will be able to really see the boat's beautiful lines!

This was a change made in 2010. They also pulled the port motor forward several inches.

I asked that question last year at the show and if I remember correctly it was explained to me that they made the change because it allows the headers on the motors to be ordered stock for both motors. If you have the starboard motor forward, the outboard header is standard but the inside header is the layed over type (toward the supercharger) to allow the tailpipe to run over the coolant reservoir of the rear motor.

That's the explanation I received as well.

I did notice the front motor does have Bravo style headers. That'll save a couple thousand when replacement time comes!

Just returned from Miami and I must say, Cigarette stood tall. The Cig booth was clearly the class of the show. We also got to see our new boat completed for the first time and were thrilled. Process and product definitely exceeded all expectations.

Next phase of the process is delivery day Mid March.

Below are several pictures of the finished product:
