"New" Cafe Racer
 

Just picked up a 1990 Cafe Racer a couple weeks ago. Not happy that winter is coming - looking forward to the spring already! It is #86 from the "How Many Cafes Where Made" thread (actual thread name, don't blame me). Previous owner said it used to have a black dash before it went to Lip Ship's in 2001 (so it may also be #54 from that thread).

Also, here's a video from our maiden voyage: [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxeU95m9_o4[/YOUTUBE] :evilb:

...forgot to mention - don't ask what I'm doing with my 1985 Formula 242LS with twin 350s, 'cause I'm not allowed to advertise in a thread. :ban:

Congrats on the Cig! Great looking boat!

Thanks everyone! I'm pretty excited about it. No more hard landings off 4 footers. All I need is a new paint job.

Awesome man - CONGRATS!!!

Seafordguy (and everyone else) - thanks - and post a pic of your CAFE.

Our boats are painted very simliar. Slightly different color, and they finished the stern around the oval different, but if you notice the deck, and side paint are the same. The pin stripes on the recessed part of the deck, and the elongated lines mirror each other. Very interesting.

Congrats on the new to you Cig!

I think JJ be good has found his new wing man:drink:

Boat looks great! Wasnt that boat for sale at one time?
