Yeah, I don't think that is a Cafe at all. Mistress, Flat Deck, not a Cafe. Radar arch and bow rails? Straight across cowling? Don't know what it is, but not a Cafe. I would get the hull I.D. and do a little research...

thats the one
 

Yeah thats it. I didnt realize he had it on boat trader. I am no expert on cigs but something just doesnt look right about it. Even the dash, guages, and steering wheel location look diffrent.

Be careful, that looks like a "US Government" special or a drug boat.

It may have been used by a branch of the government or used for smuggling because of the radar arch and paint. These tend to be very abused boats, run hard with no pride of ownership. That boat needs a lot of work.

35 cafe? NO !
 

I had a 35 cafe. It is not a Cafe. Many Cigarette hulls were purchased (plain hulls, no liners or decks) in that era and outfitted with different decks and rigged by a company in Michican. That looks like one of them. I am sure a couple other people tooks shots at doing the same thing. That is an old boat. Find something else.

Yeah. I don't know what the hell that is. It definitely isn't a 1988 model Cafe Racer. Maybe an old Mistress hull, which wouldn't be an 88. Cigarette didn't build that thing. Looks like you would be buying a nightmare.
