Great news for Cigarette....
 

Not only have they hired a world class upholsterer, if you read a bit down in my blog you'll see that business is booming and they (Cigarette) have hired back nearly all employees let go due to the economy and are in the process of hiring above and beyond what they had!

Very cool Tank -

Maybe they can now build the long planned Paul Fiore tribute Cigarette........

Tank - I couldn't find the ref to the tribute on your blog. I knew Don, I'm not going to speculate on what he would think, but I would rather see the DA tribute come from Cigarette.

I would think it would make more sense to be on one of Aronow's boats (Cig, Donzi, Forumla, etc.) but Fiore struck the deal and it is what it is. I would think Aronow would be amused by it.

I will say it does seem to be a page out of the Reggie Fountain publicity plan.... ergo "get 'em talking about your boats with whatever it takes";) And that's not a knock at OL. The plan is working. Will they sell any boats because of the Aronow Edition? Who knows. But it seems to be a hot topic in the General area with boaters.

By the way, total speculation as I haven't spoken to Skip or anyone else about it but I wouldn't be surprised if Cig passed on the option.
