I had a couple 93 TG's and the dash and cuddy door in this boat look to be the same

Thisistank I'm glad you cleared that up it has been driving me crazy trying to figure out which models these are. These look to be another 2 of them I believe the military boat and the flame paint job boat are the same ones if I remember correct the flame boat was seized for running drugs overseas and the second one was in Japan when the photo was taken.

Nice pics!! Wonder where those are now?

Always tripped me out how Japan has a LOT of performance boats flying under the radar over there. You see stuff a lot from all over Europe but not much from Japan ever. Kenny Boyce's American flag Tiger went over there and was never seen again. Sounds like most of the Evolution and Top gun decked 42's went over to Asia.

That military boat looks like it might actually be a 46. It's got a huge bow.

You are right nothing seems to get posted from Japan, I've always wondered the story with the 6 pack Cafe sitting next to the 42 in my first photo. The only reason why I think the military boat is a stretched 38/42 is because of the dash lay out and it has the same hatch as the other 42's its hard to make out in the photos they uploaded pretty blurry for some reason.

Craig borrowed from all kinds of models to make stuff in the late 80's and 90's (such as the stretched gun deck on the 42). That military boat is a trip though. Looks to me like a 46 but maybe its just the angle. Hard to tell what exactly it is. And that Cafe is a trip. Looks like it's just a dropped in 6 pack and the boat is pretty normal besides that. Here's another pic of it.

It does have a raised hatch that might indicate lurking power but also appears trs-ish stock-ish looking lowers..?

I should have looked at the drives on the military boat that differently does seem to be a triple so most likely not the same boat as the flame boat

That army boat does look pretty long but, my assumption is if it was a 46’ it would have been more squared off on the transom rub rail like the early RR predecessors... I guess only Barry, Scott, or Bud would know...

In Spain

Foreign countries are funny to me. The state these boats end up in and the stories behind how they got there are often times so bizarre

There are a lot of wealthy people in Europe and Asia so boats that we would repair/restore are more or less disposable to those type people.

It's not just this. There's a MAJOR lack of infrastructure to support the care and service these type of boats require. Storage, transportation, exterior maintenance and the big one, performance mechanics are all lacking in other parts of the globe. Even in 1st world areas in Europe its difficult to care for these boats unless you're in a specific area that specializes in them.

I was with the owner of “smokin” last week.
the paint was literally falling off the boat. He took all the graphics off with a razor blade. There’s plenty of pics around of the old paint and it can be painted back the way it was if someone wanted.

Found this looking a little sad in NJ yesterday.

The only chance of that ever seeing the water again will be if some one turns it into a cc. I remember when the refresh was just done and pics were posted on here. Someone put a lot of coin and time into it. It was sweet! It made me want one... ;)

Keep the paint on the sides, cut the deck out and throw triple 450’s on it. That one they did in the islands is bad azz.

I hear ya, so the boat recently sold? Would you happen to have any good pics showing the whole side of the boat?

Email me, I’ll get some. Going over there this week the current owner is friends with the last owner and has been servicing it for years.

That's a real shame someone had done a really nice job on that boat. Revos aren't everyone's cup of tea, but a lot had gone into that one. Shame to see it sitting under the pines.....

Agree. there were a couple other neglected looking perf boats around it as well.

For the most part, the hull itself/paint still look quite good, but the boat is completely gutted.

I would buy this in a heart beat but have to dispose of my Formula PC in similar condition first.

They did a great job on that and the 46 they restored.

Awesome, you found that thread. Looking at those pics you can understand my sadness to see it in the current state.... :(

Man, I think I even just teared up a little. That is sad.

^^What he said. That is sad to see something done so nicely get to its current state

That breaks my heart. I'm the one that redid it (different user name now). Soooo many hours of work just to sit there. If anyone can get me the owners info I might just buy it back for sentamental reasons.

It is listed on eBay now.... listed for $20,000.00 Hull only.
1992 Cigarette

that things BEGGIN’ to be cut into a CC with a few 350’s on it.

does that nice Myco come with it for 20k? If not.......

Ad says "dry boat". I know what they mean but 8 inches of damp leaves in the bilge doesn't exactly scream "dry boat".....

That is just crazy, the amount of money that had to be put into that restoration had to have been nuts, What boat got all of those parts?

According to the description the Myco doesn't come with it. It is just an empty hull.

Here is the description from the eBay listing:

1992 42’ cigarette revolution

cigarette hull
Underwent full conversion from a triple boat to full stagger twins. It was rigged completely but then finishing items never done, then decided to part boat out.
Rigged with extension boxes originally so holes in transom are very small. It had IMCO boxes and drives. Can easily be drilled for #6 etc.
BOAT IS SET UP AS A FULL STAGGER TWIN ENGINE BOAT.
Brand new fuel tanks as well
Boat is Dry ! No moisture at all. No rot.
Really nice paint job, shows really well.

This bottom hull shares the same bottom as the APACHE 42 comanches, its a really nice hull, will make a really good project boat!

BOAT IS A HULL.
NO MOTORS. NO DRIVES. NO GAUGES. NO interior!
I do have the bolster seats, visors etc.
NO trailer.

$20,000 or best offer
Title in hand

Do I have the boat mixed up with another Revo? I thought this one was rigged with 6's not Imco's, like the ad says?

I think it just needs a flat deck. I’m sure this is much harder to do than I’m imagining.

Wish somebody would just throw some power in it and enjoy it. Makes me sick seeing it like that.

And uncovered for months through some HEFTY rains and winter
