Hi,
The one in the picture looks like a black one. Here is a different picture from above. http://photos.flpowerboat.com/p10380...1B06#h3bce21d7 But the one you have is very nice, and looks very similar

The boat in the FPC pics is a one off. It is 44ft. long. The strength and honor cig and a couple others are similar but none of them are the same. I believe they were made in cooperation with skater just like the kilo boat.

Nope, the wrap around windshield 46' shown in the FPC pic on the original post is the previous all white kilo boat Cigarette had Skater build. The boat then underwent some surgery and was displayed as the "Strength & Honor" boat at the 2007 Miami boat show. It campaigned the poker run circuit and then was changed to current black and white paint scheme in 2009 and sold to the current owner

As far as I know, there has only been two of these boats actually built. The "Kilo" boat that then was Strenth and Honor and then was turned to it's current build (all by work done by Cig by the way). It was designed by Cig and layed up at Skater due to it being an Epoxy boat.
And there was the Euro Race boat built which is still over in Europe I do believe.

There's also the "Skaterette" that is technically a Skater 399. Was built at Skater and finished at Cigarette.

There was also the Lip-Ship Rio Roses that was technically built like the Kilo and Euro race boats if you want to get technical. Layed up at Skater, rigged by Phil. Then turned into the first Maximus 45' that Tom Abraham owned.
