My 20 Cig Project
 

I have been working on redoing my 20 Cig for about 2 years and I wanted to share some pics. I know there are quite a few people working on their own 20 projects so I hope everyone enjoys them. I know that I enjoy following projects that people have done.

My 20 Cigarette is a 1982. She is getting a complete redo. The boat is not complete but hopefully will be done this spring/summer. All of the fiberglass work will be completed by the end of December. Following some fit checks for the motor, it will then go to Phil @ Lip-Ship for paint, rigging, and interior.

First pics show the condition I purchased it in.

Here are some pics and I will post as the progress continues. Enjoy!

Just getting it ready to gut everything

Prior owner had boat primed and painted white. Third pic shows the original gelcoat color and you can see the original graphics lines as well.

More to come in the next week.

Hey Randy I hope things are good!

I am not sure what I am going to do for colors and scheme right now but I am sure Harold will have some good ideas.

looks great what did you do with old seats? I am going rig mine with a console and high back buckets but those sure would make neat bar stools.
in my river room if you dont have plans for them

What are your rigging plans

I am going to use a ITS on mine either with a blackhawk of shorty bravo hooked to a 500HP.

I made a shop chair out of one of them and will probably do the same with the other.

As far as rigging, i picked up an ITS transom assy a while back for it and a BH drive. I have the motor for it as well but I am going to wait until it is done to let that out:drink:

Good luck with your project! I look forward to seeing it!

The glass work looks mint

Darren,
Good luck with your project. She will make a nice addition to the Lake Winni Cig club!

are you going to glass in a ferring or leave the little windshield

Thanks Paul! Can't wait to drive it! We defintely have to get together for next summer and run around the lake!

I am not sure. I like characteristics of both. I am leaning toward keeping it the classic look. we will see.

cut a step in it while you got it upside down :)

It's already right side up. Just finishing up the deck now.

I think she will be fast enough without it!:ernaehrung004:

Or you could paint the steps in like we did here, lol

so you did buy that 1075 you were looking at for the 20 - nice

No, new 1200 sci :drink:

Looks great D... We just got the gas tank in, got 75 gallons. Deck should be back on this week. everything is coming along...

Harold, only you!!!! That's what makes you the King!!

Looks great!!

Nice! Can't wait to see the pics!

Thanks for the nice comments

What size tank did they originally have?

not to take away from your post, but how fast do these boat run? and who has the fastest one? thanks

ktron
if not reusing life line setup i would like to buy it

I will take a look and see if I still have it.

Thanks

This is the fastest one by far. Blackhawk, 800+hp, 101mph on this pass...:cool:

thanks b, that is unreal:evilb:

65 gallons

nice stuff!

Some updates...

Glasswork is complete.

We removed the deck storage and glassed over. I wanted the old school look but I was worried the deck hatch would make noise slapping around.

ready to rig!

what did you set the x dim at for the ITS and blackhawk?

looks great!

Awesome work! Did you remove the storage well or wells in the engine compartment or were they never installed? Thanks

There was one on the port side but I removed it.
