Interesting Old Cig, 26' with #5 drive
 

Was browing local classifieds and found this. Looks to be in decent shape, with a nice drive in the back (although looks like a #3 to me, not a #5). Motor looks cobbled together though...

cool boat! those trailer tires look really wide...? not very far from us

I don't think its a Cigarette, I don't remember any 26' ever being made

What is it?
 

Looks alot like a Wellcraft Excalibur? Velocity on the steering wheel, never knew of them to build a 26' boat that looked anything like this? Sharp looking boat some good hardware. GMG

Are you guys sure that is a Cigarette???

Doesn't look anything like Cig build quality to me.

No year, No vin#, No Cig.

I don't think they ever built a 26'...

But, but,..it's got lots of Cigarette Decals on it....gotta be a Cig, right?

:evilb:

hey compared to a Larson or Four Winns, you are doing good....hahaha

Hey, Hey, Hey!! :angry-smiley-038:
I have a Larson and love that little boat! :party-smiley-004:

not a speedmaster V. Looks like a speedmaster III.

I think you are correct, may be extended a bit looking at the notched trasom behind the tiny pad.

chopped together trailer with some old corvette wheels and center caps !

raised deck excalibur 27, or a splash of 1

I agree-- Would like to find a 27 Excalibur raised deck project!

I thought it looked kinda wierd, but I'm not a cig expert. So its NOT a cig? Any consensus as to what it is?

Thats what I was thinking...............

Myy guess is SSM IV (NOT a III) - I'll take two - that's so not a Cig - PS - TRS anyone?

Agreed - Some clues - hatch layup definitely not Cigarette quality. It looks like carpet in the engine compartment, Excalibur did that. My old 27 Cig had a really low profile, no room for any cabin at all, not even a stabbin' cabin.

well . . . whatever it is it really aint a bad package, i kinda like it. Looks to have some decent hardware and a nice trailer to. Not sure if its 15K nice but could be a good rig for someone.

Well i sent the broker a email and received this....

With no model distintion showing I measured the boat to be 26' 2" overall. I advertised it as 26'. Yes - they made a 26' boat. I sold one in the late 90's as well. This one has had the engine changed to a 502 ... and its been souped up professionally.

I don't have the serial number where I am now and do not email HINs. You are welcome to write it down when you see the boat.

Subject: 26ft Cig HIN

Seen you listing for your cig. Im unaware that Cig made a 26ft. Could you please send me the HIN(hull id number) along with any info about the boat since it looks like a recent restoration.

Thank you

If someone can prove that is a Cig....I would imagine that is one RARE cig. Cool looking rig either way!
