Outside and motor box was spectacular. As I write this The details from Waxing Frenzy are cleaning and detailing the cockpit and cabin. Pics as soon as I get some. Been wanting a Cig since I was 12, and that was a looong time ago. Now anyone able to give me some tips on how much trim is needed when running? Any other tips will cetainly be appreciated Bill, My thought is you can never have too much trim when you are running the gun. I would start with four or five girls. If there is no problem getting on plane, then add two girls at a time until you feel a little overwhelmed, at that point, back off two girls. That should be enough trim. Good luck and let us know how it goes. You have a beautiful rig there, good luck. |

It's great to have a gun in the club. I also look forward to stretching the legs in the rough stuff.... |

Re: A new Cigarette in the HRPA!
I just left Bill at the marina doing what he does best......waxing with Frenzy! :D Beautiful boat! I am sure you will have it as clean as the PQ in no time. Those guys at Cumberland are going to be amazed when they see your boat.
Can't wait for the weekend so I can hear you go by!! :( Congrats Bro!!!!!! |

Re: A new Cigarette in the HRPA!
That is a great looking boat. I saw it when I bought my Gladiator from Lake Cumberland. Aren't they good people to deal with!!

Re: A new Cigarette in the HRPA!
mcraymond will you be going to the SBI races in Washington, NC during August?
I'm planning on going up and hopefully we will have a spot set up to sell the offshoreonly stuff with one of the race teams. My dad works right near Jacksonville at Henry's Tackle Co. I think their office is actually in Swansboro or one of those little towns right there south of Morehead. Once they move up there full time I will probably be spending more time there when I can. |
Re: A new Cigarette in the HRPA!
