Since there is no registry or Cig20 website, thought I start this thread up so we get to know how many 20' Cigs are out there and to know each others boats etc. Would be nice to see the hull number painted on each boat so at a glance, you can see what production number the boat is. Ex: Mine is #34 so a 34 painted on the sides of the hull in a circle - just like the racing boat. Feel free to use the following format and pics are always welcome!

I am looking at a 1974 that the seller claims has a Larsen hull Id # and it has an outboard with a bracket. Was there such a boat? Boats from the 70's usually had a motor well vs bracket for outboards.
Thx

We had a break in the action on another Cigarette we where working on and finally got started on Don's boat. We have a big job ahead repairing the previous "repairs".

Year : 1973
Hull: #12
Located: Fairport Harbor, Ohio
Power: currently sb 350 w/ volvo drive

Is that BONDO? :eek:

No Brian much worse, it looks to be spot putty. First off when we picked up the boat it was "ready for paint" on deck. It has been sitting since last January when we went and got it, good thing they didn't paint it. The top side had about 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch of gel, fillers and grey crap (might be primer). We sanded it down to glass and found brown worms by the hundreds, we think its spot putty. Problem is we do not know how deep they went with the V-ing out of the cracks out yet as we are still removing the layers of crap.

Jeebus, you might be better off filling back in with bondo and popping a mold. Then you'd be 1/2 way there to building new boats.

Good thing is he only had just over $80,000.00 invested to get it looking like that.......that's not a typo!!!! But in all fairness the sides and bottom are painted so well they came with their own waves so no need for water.

Brian,
That 20 cig that CigaretteDon owns was pretty much a cash cow for Lakeside restorations in Pa. I was there and saw the inferior work first hand.
To understand the 80K ripoff by Jamie @ Lakside U have to understand how it totaled up.......... Don was charged $75 an hour for this aweful
work lakeside calls a restoration and if that's not insulting enough on top of this he was charged a monthly storage fee while it was there for the
many years he worked on it!!!!..............it probabely would have gotten to 100k if he hadn't moved it to you........Don should've never let this get
out of control...........but Shame on Lakeside too!!!

Dash holes filled with foam then covered over with body filler. The cracks in the hatch were also just covered with filler and not ground out and filled with putty like the rest of the boat. The boat is about 200 pounds lighter now.

I know - shame on me! I am a honest person and trusted Lakeside Restoration and they clearly ripped me off. I do work outside the country and the boat was far from my house. Fortunatley, I have a job that pays pretty well so I can recover. I am glad Brian has my boat now and hope he can fix the **** work done by Lakeside - I should take Lakeside to court - but it means more money. Brian - I will be in touch - sending you more money :(

20 cig HIN
 

Does anyone know where the second or hidden HIN is on the 20s? I have a client with one and he doesn't have a HIN, it was painted or may not have had one.

I know the first one didn't have a HIN but maybe other early ones didn't.

Crawl into the front with a flashlight and look everywhere, behind the dash, footwells, under and behind storage locker. Look for handwriting
