Anytime Steve

Gary, did they go through or tell you what parts of the hull are Kevlar and what part is fiberglass?
I've heard the stingers and deck are mostly Kevlar on newer generation boats but never confirmed.

Thanks for the updates; awesome build. Is that balsa core in the hull bottom and sides; any idea what thickness (of balsa) is used and how many layers of glass is used?

Great questions Rob, sorry I don't have the answers but will try to get em.

Congrats Gary. I have been keeping up on your process through Duke. I didn't know you were posting progress can't wait to follow it and as usual can never go wrong with red. BTW we are pretty close to securing a slip down right down from you. Can't wait to ride in this thing.

BTW I have the "go bigger disease" myself moving out of my red checkmate into something much bigger. See ya this spring.

Progress Report...

Congrats again Gary. Great talking to you today about the 1100's and your new boat. Your going to absolutely love that package.

Thanks Mark, really appreciate the call and advice.

Sorry for going radio silent, struggling with final graphics. Have several base ideas hope to have this wrapped up first week of January.

Yes it did find a great home, I can't wait to get it out next season!

Congrats on a beautiful boat

Best of luck with the new project Gary.

Hey Linnie, she's gonna look good tied to that mooring ball in your avatar picture.

Looks like you gonna have a big brother. We are leaning toward very similar graphics as your new boat. Again, there was nothing we disliked about the 39.

Happy New Year all. With the Holiday's and a weeks vacation in the sunshine state Project X has slowed a bit. Boat is still on target for a mid / late April maiden voyage. Should have pictures of the boat out of the mold and hopefully the deck and hull assembled this week.

Was hoping to have graphics completed by now, however, with Cigarette's backlog and Miami Boat Show prep its taking a bit longer than expected. Hope to pick up the pace over the next several weeks.

Again, Happy New Year!

Gary, Good to see you in Marco and catch up. Looking forward to seeing the build progress. Take care and Happy New year!

Congrats on the build and thanks for sharing! Excited about every aspect of your build!

Threads like these keep OSO alive!

Wow Gary. Congratulations! I thought your 39 was the most beautiful Cig I'd ever seen - in part because I grew up in northern KY and have always been a fan of the Scarlet and Grey myself. :) Can't wait to see the 42.

Good luck with the build and good luck Monday night.

Thx Bob. Hope to see your Donzi at Cumberland this Spring.

Gary's holding out for a new 2016 trailer when the boat gets delivered ;)

No sense in getting last years model eh.... Lol

Borrowed the trailer from a 24' pontoon...LOL New painted aluminum Myco ordered.

The 1100's go well with the pink bilge.

Well I'm 30,000 feet above must be Indiana. Heading to Cig factory to complete design and check on Project X progress in person. Hope to have a solid update this weekend.

Just returned from South Florida had a great visit to Cigarette factory. Shop is extremely busy getting ready for the Miami Boat show.

Good progress on Project X attached are several pictures.

Way cool.

What's the first event you think you will make Gary?

You mean run?

Poker run? I'm assuming you will have the boat in the water when you pick it up at least I would.haha

congrats! dream boat for sure.

Was hoping to make TickFaw but that will be cutting it very close. Yes, delivery will be on Biscayne Bay in Miami it then goes to Lake Cumberland.

Today's update. Getting ready for paint. Should have color in the next several weeks,

Cumberland Crew stopped by Cigarette on way to the Miami show. Project X looked lonely:cool-smiley-026:

We also finished graphics. Big thank you to Marty and Dave!

That this is going to by wicked sexy!!!!!!
Can't wait to see it in person.

Awesome experience at Cigarette finalizing Gary's graphics. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Graphics look awesome! Looking forward to seeing it in person.

Going to be an awesome looking (and running) boat!! Looking forward to many more updates.

Attended Miami show and seriously considered at 39 GTS……but think I'll stick with my 39TG. It's incredible how many CC's the high performance boat manufacture's are selling. They were literally everywhere!!!
