Looking at the photos of this Cafe I have a feeling it might have been mine at one time.
You can see the drives are spinning in. I switched them to do that. The cover looks like the one I had made for it. Everything I see looks identical to my old boat. The dash is exactly like mine. 26k sounds cheap.

Its a very clean and good looking boat for its year. I saw it at the Manhasset Bay Poker Run a few weeks ago.....
And yes, it does seem underpowered....

I dugout some of the old pics I have of my old boats, notice the cover and the drives. That is my old boat. Nobody would make a cover like that besides me. I have used that black with red piping for years on boats and I put the left drive on the right side and the right drive on the left side to spin the props in.

Speaking of this boat, I have the bimini top from this boat which never went with it. It is made out of stainless, not aluminum like most biminis. It was a factory option. If anyone wants to buy it I will part with it.

Personally I think it's a great buy....26K for a Cig! If you by the boat knowing you are going to put some money in it I don't think you can get hurt. Yea it might not be the fastest thing out there but you are going to have a solid ride and you can always upgrade the power.
