Step up.
 
I`m not cool like the TOP GUNS to have steps up to the bow and getting up there on a Flat Deck is a pain, getting down too.
Got rid of the useless cushion and got this step.
Works great !

I dig all your custom touches. Bad azz

Just the carbon fiber is an improvement. All sorts of possibilities with things you could mount on that. Where’d you get the carbon from and did it come with a UV clear coat?

Innovate, I wanted it to match the gauge panels he did for me.

We flush mounted a step into the dash in my old Apache for the same reason, but I like your idea much better. Our step worked well to get up onto the bow, but it was hard to find with your foot when coming back down into the cockpit. I think that your idea is going to work perfectly and it looks great too.

Thanks Tank. It's still going strong and will be out of the warehouse for the summer as soon as the weather gets consistent. It was in the mid 60's today, but we had snow flurries just a few days ago. I am looking forward to summer, as always.

How difficult is it to modify that mold to fit something else, like a Cafe?

It seems most of the Cig cockpits of that era have the same basic dimensions/layouts and same basic methods for mounting whatever dash is in them. They are a fair amount of work in any boat, even earlier TG's, but certainly can be done with enough motivation. Its funny you say Cafe', the set pictured is heading to Germany to be installed in exactly that.

Unfortunately, no. I am going to be stuck here again this summer until people decide that they want to stop living off of unemployment and come back to work. It's frustrating. We were offering up to $25/hour last summer and still could not fill all of the open positions at the hotel. With no time limits, no job search requirements and the extra money added on top of the normal unemployment payments, it's no wonder nobody wants to work. I think last summer people were scared to come to work because of the virus. I understand that, but now with vaccines in place it is time to get working again. I am hopeful that this summer will be better, but it 's not looking that way so far. The town is booming with plenty of guests, but it is so frustrating to have to turn away business because of a lack of staff. Every business is in the same situation around here right now. We just need to make the best of it and wait it out. Sorry, end of rant. If you go to the rendezvous, please remember to post lots of pictures!

I agree with you Duck- I have more work coming up in the next 90 days then the last 365 and help is getting extremely lazy w the unemployment payouts.

How about a few more pics of that beautiful, classic Cigarette. I love your step idea and using the old fuel tank for storage. Any other unique features?

Thank you !!

Hey Mike (IZOOM) finish those custom tabs already Hot Duck wants to check them out :D

I put in an anchor locker and things like oil heaters when plugged in at the dock.. I`m always trying to make something different . like switches, hydraulic V catch and other dumb things .

Hot Duck 04-11-2021 12:53 AM

That thing is beautiful. I love the custom touches and, as was said above, the hydraulic bow stop is pure genius! As for those tabs, they are going to look great. It will almost be a shame to ever hide them under the water. They say that it's all in the details and I could not agree more.

Craney 04-11-2021 05:56 AM

The hydraulic bow stop is a great idea,how do you have it powered? Would like to see a full picture of your setup.
