24' Fire Fox
Hey guys,
Are there any 24' Firefox Cigs for sale?
I am in my 5th performance style boat now, and none compares to my old 1978 28ss... I loved that boat just didn't want a twin engine any longer.
I saw a 24' Cig a couple of years back in the mid-west but it was out of my price range at the time.
Two boats later, I'm kicking myself a little...

Pat, I know its not a 24, but about 6 or so months ago there was a sweet 27 Squadron for sale in Huntington. It looked lean and mean.

Re: 24' Fire Fox
Storm, I do like the 24' better.
KN, That's the one I should have bought 2 years ago. I think it has been sold.
Thanks,

Re: 24' Fire Fox
Pat,
I'd keep an eye out for any of the 24' or 27' Cigs or Cig Squadrons. From what I've seen the 24 firefox takes just as much power to run fast as the 27, so it depends on whether you need the extra length for the larger water or not. Expect to pay a lot for the age and style of the boat, because they are so rare. They're not a dime a dozen like the 28ss, which are quite plentiful these days (in the Spring). They seem hard to sell because of how impractical they are compared to more modern designs with better cabin access and speed. A nice example of the 27 was for sale here on the chesepeake Bay for 2+ years at 20k before it finally sold. I've only ever seen one Firefox here in the last 20 years.
