1972 Cigarette Racing Team 20 ft.
I have a 1972 20 ft Cig. that I' told could be 1 0f 3 boats actually manufactured in 1971 but the HIN plate list it as a '72. It also list the boat at 20 ft but it true measures less then that. I was told that was done because of a govt. regulation that became effective in 1972 that required boats less then 20 ft to have flotation foam in the hulls and just changing the length on the HIV plate got around that requirement. This is just hearsay so any information would be greatly appreciated.
