Default 87 Cigarette Cafe Racer "BUTTANA"

This was my first powerboat and was wondering where it is now?

Try looking up the HIN on USCG site in case it was documented.

242 - I just noticed your avatar. You paint looks identical to mine. Can you post a pic?

Sure -

I would LOVE to paint her - never a fan of the Miami Vice colors (well, maybe 30 years ago), but engine troubles in 2013 took the paint ca$h.

Any luck with the HIN lookup?

Found!

Ptlaporte,

I’m the current owner of the boat (I’ve had her since 2004, she’s still alive and kicking in NC) and often wondered if anyone on the board would ask about her.
I’d like to touch base with you via email if possible to get a better understanding of her history, etc. Do you mind if I send a PM with my email address?

Regards, Bryan
