does anyone have any info on this boat? I know it used to run on the chain o lakes in northern illinois years ago. it is a late seventys aranow hull from what I remember. the lettering was in several colors down the whole side of the boat. I assume it is just rotting away where it is sitting? it has not moved in years, does anyone have more info on the boat or has anyone ever inquired about purchasing it from the owner?

Hi There...Thanks Guys for your your interest... Still Smokin is a 1979 Cigarette Mistress with a race fairing... I was told the boat was made special with more rocker on the bottom By Don Aronow for either Jerry Jacoby or a fella named Eisman not sure who..But it is one fast 35 and it loves big water... It has 572's that Dyno at 850HP at 4750 rpm with SSM3's Gaffrig tube headers... The boat is a rocket ship for this vintage of Cigarette's and runs in the 80,s and the fastest on GPS was 88 MPH... It has been sitting for over 7 yrs. but always started every season.
I Love this boat and never wanted to sell it... I am either going to start running it again or sell it...I am in my early 60's and getting the bug to do something.... I have no idea what the boat is worth now....Maybe some of you guys on the Forum can give me an idea on the value of this boat...
Kind Regards
Jim
