Spotted a 40' Magnum on a semitrailer headed southbound on I-95 through Melbourne FL a few days ago... No drives on it. Sorry, couldn't get a pic.

One reason it took so long is because the guy would not sell until he got a Bigger Magnum. So, they turned him on to the 55 or 60 that Joe looked at in Fla. and it was a done deal. 2 Large commissions because I turned him onto it and all I get is to Drive It

Congratulations to one special Cigarette 38. I saw your photos in the Cigarette owners' forum and it's so cool to see that the documentation from new has stayed with the boat. Do you know who originally bought the boat from Don Aronow? Several of the retired offshore racers brought with them their 'leisure' performance boats to Colorado or bought one once they got settled in. Most wanted change after having lived and worked in states like New York, New Jersey, and Florida. Bob 'Doc' Magoon was probably the one who set the trend and several followed. They couldn't let go of boating though, even though aviation was also a very popular activity among this great gathering of then-living legends.

I am not sure. The boat was in Ohio I believe before Colorado and Northeast before that. When I have time I will go through all the paperwork and figure out and look at dates.

Yes, when You have more history of the boat share it on the Cigarette Owners Forum thread You started. I wouldn't be surprised if You'll get feedback from fellows that have known this boat.
