I have my eye on a 525 whipple motor and ITS transom with xr. All of the pics i see of them riding they are way stern heavy, hopefully by putting the drive back about 8-10 more inches we can get a better cog while under way to help balance out the high hp. mine sat in a yard by the woods for 13 years and was covered but the transom is shot, which is fine as Dave wants to redo it and make it stronger. The ITS will keep the transom clean and it will have 280 tabs instead of the 380. Like Rick's there is no rush for it and I'm figuring a year to 18 months to have it done right. I'm also doing it on a budget and will buy the best stuff, but not break the bank all at once. Once it gets under way I'm sure dave will have a thread with pics either here or in the fiberglass section.
Offshoredrillin, I saw your post and had to comment. I am currently redoing a 1982 20 Cigarette with some of the same ideas you have. I just had the transom completely redone and moving to the bottom next to make sure it's straight and re-gelcoat. I have picked up a used ITS for mine also. I was thinking along the same lines with the much cleaner look in the back. I am probably going with N/A power, maybe a merc 525 EFI or possibly a Zul. Anyway, I wish you the best with your project. Hopefully next summer we can all meet at the 20 run. DK |

You guys have to know that this hull was never ment for that horsepower. Its nice that you can afford that kind of $$$$$, but you are wasting your money. Why do you think that the original ads for the 20 Cig rated it at 60 MPH. The added HP that will take you above 70 MPH makes that hull crazy. Just food for thought !

In a new twist I bought a 28 Cigarette project, so I may sell my 20' Cigaette if anyone is interested.
