I am coming to the end of a 5 year long restoration on my Magnum 27 Sport. Getting the itch for another classic Don Aronow boat so I am putting my feelers out there to see if there are any classic Cigarette Flat Decks out there for sale? The ride and performance of my Magnum is unreal but I want something bigger and with more freeboard so it is more friendly for the wife and young kids...... Any advice some of you experienced Cigarette guys could give me would be great, Mistress, Squadron, Top Gun??? How do these larger non stepped hulls perform compared to the modern light weight stepped hulls? Thanks!

I have what you are looking for. 1986 flat deck. 800hp engines 3a speed master. Pretty much all redone Ready for the water. Call if interested 708 935-9382. I can send pic

The older straight bottoms are great rides and feel very safe I had a 31 bullet for 4 seasons and just moved up to a 38 gun straight bottAm you will not be disappointed !

hotrod.......l own 3 Don Aronow boats and the flat deck is the most (as you say) friendly for the wife and kids...you won't be disappointed to own one!.....what year & power in the 27' Sport?.....post some pictures up!

The Magnum is currently in Florida getting some much needed upholstery work. Hoping to find a Cigarette that is either ready to roll or in need of only minor cosmetic and mechanical restoration work. The Magnum was a monumental project..... it was very rough to start with and I don't have the time for another project of that level. My Magnum is now powered by twin LS3 motors with bravo XR's

---- Really nice Sport!!! Cant quite tell if or how the floor is dropped from the pictures. Do you have a picture that shows the floor area?........Bill S

Its good to see the LS engines gettin some luv, very nice HR62

I dropped the floor about 6", helped a bunch but another 8" or so would be great! only way to get any further would be to build drop boxes to stand in which I didn't want to do. I will post a link to the photo bucket page showing some restoration progress pics later.

Very nice

Sorry to go off in a different direction than your original post, but what year is the Mag sport? and where did you find her?.....Wonderful restoration!
