thanks for the info and pics thisistank.

I can barely remember what I did yesterday but I sure can remember a LOOOOOOOT of useless Cigarette trivia!


I forgot Toms (old) boat was layed up by Skater.

Sweet ride, that one is.

When it was Rio Roses and after Tom had it "pleasureized".

That thing is pretty sweet, I agree the windscreen kinda sticks out a bit but and detracts from the looks but i would bet it makes running at those speeds alot nicer (and safer).

What is meant by E type? Is this hull unique to only the Cig/Skater venture or is it the same as the standard Cig 39 but layed up and flatdecked by Skater? Bad azz none the less. I really like this boat, i need to find an extra half a mil . . . .

Found another shot...

I really like this boat- could even learn to live with that hatch.

With out a doubt.

I believe it's a Skater hull.

It's Skater's 399 Hull...

You can see how much they're the same here: The wrap around windshield is really the only dif.

You guys that are discussing the windshield should notice that it's a classic Skater line....Even on the cats, it's just not as noticable. But look at the yellow/orange 399 in the link above with the canopies. The back of the windshield drops just like the Etype cig. And heres' a 40 Skater that does the same thing, just remove the scoops and it's the same lines.

They rounded that one down at the rear a little, which I think smooths the line out a little better. They have a new one a the factory that has it taped down to the rear + a really low profile "scoop" on the hatch, since the 1075's don't need all that height.

Whoever okayed that deck hatch should be comitted. And, even though the windshield is questionable, its the rear engine hatch which is too low. The profile of the boat is awkward and does not flow nicely. It looks like it was designed by a comittee wth no focus on the overall design. Too bad, because it still is a very special boat.

Agreed.
