Congratulations on the new build. There is nothing better than building your own Cig! Sounds like it will be incredible.

The paint doesn't sound as exciting as your current one, but the power sure does!

Since you're going ALL out, I'd make the backseat a true 3 bolster setup with the ability to raise & lower the bottoms, instead of the bench or undulating design with the handles you see sometimes. Real bolsters would sure make for a nice secure ride at speed for your passengers, & they could see better at the same time.

Example:

It was fun at the show talking about this boat with Fred from Mercury and Skip at Cig.

These guys do this all day long and it was cool to see the excitment in their eyes when they talked about this boat with those motors.

When we do the Thousand Islands run, wait for me at the lunch stop!

Wow, what a cool setup. Never thought about it at all. As the project keeps moving I will seriously consider it. Thanks much!
