Re: Revolutions
When the boat was built- there was nothing down below- was built for speed. Was sent back to Cigarette 2 years later to have a half cabin put in it and we have tweaked it here and there since we got it!

Re: Revolutions
I remember hearing in the early nineties there were some structural problems with the first revolutions. Does anybody know about this?

Where is Mr. Cigarette?

Re: Revolutions
How many revolutions were built? Could not tell you! I know that they were only built for a few years though.

Re: Revolutions
built from 1990 to i think 1998, ours i believe was the 5th built judging by hin. i think the total produced was something like 66? with a lot of them exported to europe. mr.cig i saw listed for sale kinda recently with triple 500s and bravos instead of the original triple hawk 1000s and 6s. I sure hope ours doesnt have any structural problems, cuse wit trip 850s-950s (depending on pulley and fuel availability) i sure wouldnt want something fallin apart at 90 sumthin :eek:
sutphen38:what power you got in ur revo? what "tweakin" was done to it? how does it handle at speed? do you know how it handled without the cabin in it? feel free to post some more runnin shots of that beast :D |
Re: Revolutions
bshzba - those naturally aspirated motors sound real nice - saw/heard at G.H run - great job!

Re: Revolutions
As far as the power goes- we have a pair of 588 cid carborated 750 horse. The tweaking- the list is long and one that I could not begin to list off without my honey sitting here beside me! I have not heard of any structure problems with these boats at all- the only thing that we ever hear about these boats is the porpoising thing. The only in the water shots that I have of this one was all before all the paint was done a few weeks ago.... (I gotta tell ya- I think that he was more nervous when the boat was getting painted then during childbirth!!!! :) I dont think that he slept the whole weekend!!!
