[QUOTE=Gordo]Tank,
I want something 30-33, but I want a V-berth I can actually sleep in if I want, and would like to have, (I can't believe I'm about to say this), a back seat and a (gasp) a porta-potti. The other thing is, I'd like to find something that weighs less than 8500lbs for more reasons that just speed. ( I think the 35 Cafe' weighs less than a Bullet!) I'd like to be able to do over 80mph, but I'll settle for low 70's, (for now). Oh, Did I mention I can't spend more than 100K?
Maybe I've just eliminated myself from shopping for a Cigarette?

Under 8500 lbs?? Yea, I'd say you just left Cigarette out of the running. Especially when you want all the ammenities and not have SC motors. W/out blowers you're going to have a hell of a time getting a Cafe or a Bullet over 85.
You have to be willing to "give a little to get a little" you know. If you buy any other brand boat it wont be a Cigarette....Everyone else is just following in thier foot steps. Plus GLH has a good point, you can always get your money back out of a Cig for the most part.

I worked a deal with a friend that owns a paint shop, so I can't give you an exact cost. But he told me "retail" value would be between $20K and $23K. His cost on paint and supplies alone was around $3k.
