Obviously they are rare, but they are more common than a well executed, financially sensible OB conversion.....
Agreed, I’ve been looking around. I’ve seen one that doesn’t look like a total project thats 89 or 99k or something insane for what it is.. I often do google image searches for “xxxx for sale”; I found a pretty decent looking open that sold last year w no price so I emailed the broker and strait up told him I’d been looking for one and was curious what his sold for, he told me $57K for this one. https://www.yatco.com/buy-a-yacht/de...-cafe-33-open/ I didnt that was too bad..
There are not very many at all around. I saw a Hawk for 75K a couple weeks ago but thats about it. I use to think it was sacrilegious to bastardize a old strait bottom but now especially in my geographic location, situation, and really wanting to stay with the mark I see nothing wrong with a well executed conversion. Its a privilege to own a Cigarette but the ultimate object for me is to be on the water. I will say that I’m still upset about Octavian though! That made me man... So, I can relate at least...

I know it’s not a cigarette, but it would be a good boat for an outboard conversion . And I would sell it without the drives And gimbels so you could save some money there. But it is an Apache...
