A 41 with #3's was tough on drives. Add arnesons and you have a great package and awesome cruiser.

I have one of these Cigarette´s here in Sweden, and it is being updated and renovated. It has the cat´s and ssm3# but the drives are updated to 3a´s, maybe it won´t tear them down as fast as the regular ssm3#´s i hope.

I bought the boat late last summer and have only driven the boat for maybe half an hour or so, then I damaged one of the transmissions and the boat was taken out of the water and totally updated.

I´m not very good on computers but here is a link with pictures that I hope will work: http://www.boatlife.se/forum/index.php?showtopic=10480


I only know of one more cigarette like this one in Sweden, and its the one called Adrenaline and was owned by a member of the swedish pop group Ace of Base, it was originally equipped with cats and arnesons but he replaced the engines to ford merlins diesels.

Is the ebay link broken. I think I know which one this is though.

I think there might have been a misunderstandíng here, what I ment was that I own a cigarette 41, not any of the specific boats in this thread. My boat has been in sweden since the early 90´s.

My god that was a step "sdrawkcab" going to Merlins. Poof Poof BANG

Im not sure I understand what you are saying Rik, please note, I am from Sweden:lolhit:

Changing to the Ford Merlins. They were a powerful motor, they just blow up so much no one wants to use them. They have head problems and cooling issues so I think it is a step backwards to swith to the Merlins.

Were you at the race last month?

Ok, now I understand:o

Yes, I was at P1 race last month, I was attending as towboat. Sadly not with the Cigarette because it´s been sitting out of the water for almost a year now. But never the less I was attending in an Ilver 45, italian motorboat. Great weather and lots of fun, hope they will be back next year again.:evilb:

ther was one by me had 3208s and 3Adrives boat was a tank

Do you know the top speed of this one Tony? Props and setup?
