HEY COREY IM DINO, I HAD THE BOAT BUILT IN LATE 98 WITH 900 ZULS AND #6 DRIVES. I SOLD THE BOAT WHEN I LEARNED BEFORE THE GENERAL PUBLIC LEARNED THAT CIGARETTE WAS PLANNING TO STEP THE BOTTOMS OF THE TIGERS, WHICH WILL ALL KNOW THEY DID. I KNEW THAT THE VALUE OF THE NON-STEP TIGERS WOULD DROP, THATS WHY I SOLD IT WHEN I DID. THE CURRENT OWNER IS THE SECOND AFTER ME. FROM WHAT I HAVE HEARD "GOOD SOURCE" THAT HE WANTS ALOT MORE MONEY THAN THE BOAT IS WORTH. IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A NEW OR USED CIGARETTE, DONT HESITATE TO CALL PHILLY AT LIPSHIP, I HAVE BOUGHT 8 DIFFERENT CIGARETTES FROM HIM OVER THE YEARS, HE IS A GOOD GUY TO DO BUSINESS WITH. IF YOU KNOW ANYBODY LOOKING FOR A 2004 TOP GUN WITH ZULS, LET ME KNOW

Thanks Dino,
that sure is a pretty boat. I am researching whats out there right now so in the spring I can go shopping. I definitely plan on speaking with Phil as well as visiting Martin Marine. From what I understand these are the two experts. Thanks for posting!

My friend just put his 2000 Tiger up for sale. It has 500EFI & XR drives. Stock power that can get you 70+ MPH. Boat is like new and needs nothing. Check it out in the Classified Section.

There are several factors that effect the weight of the Tiger - besides engine / drive package. In 1999 Cig started vacuum bagging the layup which saved weight and increased strength. Also in mid 1999 they began using encapsulated stringers which saved about 150lbs - but lost a little strength. The cabin (covergirl, or full cabin also makes a big difference). The best combo is a vacuum bagged hull, with the standard stringers - they weigh a little more - but are stronger (like my Tiger )

BTW my 1999/2000 Tiger is for sale - Merc 900SC and #6 dry sump drives - impeccable condition! Reliable and fast - just ask Tank!

Chris
Phil told me last week he just took that boat in trade.

YA - I'll be in SB - looking forward to it.... As for my next boat - probably going to be a 27 foot Hallett, or a 25 foot Howard. - I know, it's going the wrong direction- but I kinda miss the lake stuff (wake boarding) plus I can always pimp a ride if I get the urge to offshore.

Youre crazy dude! I;ll just trade you straight across for the Baja!

By the way, I have numbers for you for the hotels and some docking info.

Lonestar383, Call Nortech. I believe the Cig you are asking about is being traded in for a new 39. The boat is very clean and well maintained from what I know.
