my buddy's 1986 Cafe looks nothing like that . there was a company at the boat show in AC a few years ago and they were putting supercharger on the GM 6.5 Diesels i think the company name was marine diesel they had one on display at the show looks like what those motors are.

Tony nice cig! Great pic of it in the avitar

When I bought my 35 mistress in 1995 I spoke to someone from cigarette (I do not recall who it was) they indicated to me that even after the1985/86 mistress was discontinued Cigarette built a 35' flat deck for the US government for either the border patrol or the coast guard. I do not recall what branch government it was. The boat was built with a top on it also.
At that time I think the person I talked to faxed me some pictures of the boat but I do not recall what I did with them.
Could this be one of those boats?
I will look for the pictures.

U know ,,i thought about that as well.

Could be a government boat because i know they like to use diesels too !!

I've seen the boat tons of times since it's real close to my place. It stays in the charter fishing area between Bahia Mar & Bahia Cabana in Fort Lauderdale. It's been repowered & repainted quite a few times, and yes, the guy has used it for years for charter "powerboat rides". On sunny weekends he'll go by 5-6 times a day. It's 100% a Mistress, and in surprisingly alright shape for the constant use it gets.
