'79 cigarette 28ss
cigarette 28ss

thanks guys for all the nice comments.i first saw a 28ss in bimini when i was about 26 yrs old.the 28ss was relatively new.i liked it immediately and have always wanted one.had a 24 firefox for 20 years,and always had a passion for a 28ss.today it was 85 degrees here so we went wakeboarding on it all day--it ran flawlessly,eveything i ever expected of one,am very happy with it.!in response to the carpet question:i got from fineline marine interiors in hallendale fla ph:305-323-3697.he does mostly go fast boats.use my name terry garbig,he will know what you are talking about then.he is the guy cigarette refers alot of people to for interior refits.he "shaves" the name in the carpet.looks really good.his name is mike and i do not know the price of it as i contracted with him for the whole interior job,and he gave me a completed price.he does top notch work and is one of the most pleasent person you will ever do buisness with; he is genuinely a nice guy.--he "x"ed the carpet under the bolsters and of course lined the edges it is all snap in with rubber backing.it is really professional looking.comes out in less than a minute as well.
