I am considering a 2001 35 playboy cig, t/s with hp 500's. Was wondering how they ride and handle the water, also what top speed i can expect. I own a 35 fountain executioner right now and would like to know how much of an upgrade is the cig. I am 6'1" tall and find the executioner's driver area cramped. Will the cig be bigger at the helm? Any help would be appriciated........Thanks in advance

Tricky,
The Cig will be a huge step. Really.

The 35 Ex, as you know, is a relitively short bottom boat. The Cig will ride much better due to hull length...mainly.
Yes, the cockpit will be bigger, and deeper.

35 PBs are rare, so you'll definately be different.
You'll be a happy guy.
Enjoy.

2001 playboy maybe for sale!!! engine are being blueprinted and balanced now...

Maybe this will help, a pic of the boat, any info will be appreciated. I really do not want to take a long ride for nothing........

Tricky919 let see some pictures of what you bought???

Here are two I have

I was told a couple of weeks ago that boat had been sold, it belonged to a buddy of mine here in Grand Haven. It's a sweet ride,Steve.

I owned a 2001 Playboy for a few years. The boat handled rough seas great, I got 83 on a fresh water lake. I put 30" labbed bravo's and had great acceleration. The Cig is much taller at the helm than a Fountain.
