Finally got enough sleep to get online (I wouldnt let her drive with the trailer). Eric thanks for being such a stand-up guy. Its great to be back in a Cig, (former Bullet owner) Going through all the paperwork, and VERY thankful for all the documentation that was done. Try to make it down to Louisiana (with or without the Tiger) for the Tickfaw 200, Ill keep you posted.

Its good to see another Cigarette coming south. Caseyh said there was a new Cafe Racer in town. I am a Cafe Racer owner as well. Look forward to seeing you on the Tickfaw sometimes. Look for the OHH WOW and stop to say hello. Cant wait to see your boat.

Tried to send a DM, but it was full. So far I have taken her out 3 times and have been fixing very minor things (loose electrical connections, etc.) It will be great to have a cabin interior again (hopefully this week?) I'm still getting to know the girl.It sucks about the Tickfaw 200, but there is always (I hope) next year! So far I have only put her in at Canal Bank Club, I am taking the 26 Pitch props off and going down to the 24's as I am learning the boat. Tiger Audio in Gonzales is putting the new Garmin in and hopefully the new stereo system the following week. Its hard to remember I do have to go to work and not only work on the Cig! Covid-19 isnt helping;its a great excuse!

I think you're going to find the boat is better ALL AROUND with the labbed 26's than those non-labbed 24's, but give them both a shot!!
Glad to see your using it some...... |

Rebuilding the dash pad
While I’m still shaking the cafe down, I’m replacing/rebuilding the dash pad the upholstery surround) the wood has given up the ghost after 30 years. I am thinking of planing 1/4 inch cypress and adding several coats of water seal &/or paint before I bring it to the upholsterer. This seemed like such a simple project.. I think Cig used marine plywood. I’ll start a thread once I can post pics
