@ MF, i will ask if some parts of the boat are still in the boatyard, but i'm not optimistic, because ther is not much space to keep "unuseful"(for them) things. Be sure i will make everything is possible, i watched the 3d about your restoration and i will be happy to help you, if i can. at least with pictures. It's a very hard project and if i think that alfred was in perfect condition, well....:mad: i can understand your disappointment.

Alfred was in Cecina,near Livorno, not at Primatist. it has been there for at least 20 years without moving.
I did not refer to the Eraf-Alfred, but to the third Eraf 36' that De Angelis had, that it seems is to the Primatist.

Here is some footage of the 36 foot Cigarette racing in the Cowes Torquay race over in England.

These were the cutting edge of offshore racing back in the days.

Hi steeb,
Tornado,(here pictured during one of the first three South American races of the 1973's World Championship) was a Cigarette 34'. A 36' cut two feet forward the cockpit.
Only two 34' was builded by Cigarette; the first was for Ed Sims and named Jersey Devil III with 4 (then 6) outboards in 1971-72.
Tornado(knowed also like Mustard Tornado) was builded in 1973 for Balestrieri.
Marco
