Daaaaaayum! Who needs enemies with friends like that!?

I think only two were built. Cig stopped the partnership...not enough quality control (from cig personnel), too much time required overseas and I think the fact it wasn't actually a cig didn't sit well with people.

Eh, live and learn. Wasn't the first time this type of venture was tried. Both ended with same results. Couple built - done.

They should have continued their partnership with OTAM.

I actually have a 5' scale concept/display model of the 55 Millenium cruiser that was part of their boat show displays in 1998/99. It is a cool piece. Some of the intricate molded windshield has cracked off but fixable. I will take a couple pictures and post them when I have a chance.
