Charley........It's fantastic when you share with us photo's and facts, but more importantly as some one (like yourself) who was there, the reminiscing is so interesting

Thanks for the kind words. I don't want to hijack this htread anymore either.

The book is still available....contact me at my email [email protected]

Hijack away. I don't get my panties in bunch like some other people. I love all of the information. Hope I can find out which/what/ who's boat that I have or any other history on it. Any idea how many they made in '72. I can't imagine it was more than 30- 50 boats.

I can't answer any of your questions, but like you, I have an "old skool" Cigarette, mine 1982 35' it's 36 yrs old, but really better than new! . Your 36' is 46 yrs. old and soon to be like new ...to me, it's like owning something that has an ageless design. You'd never know my boat is that age by looking at it, not because it has new paint or interior, but because the design (to me) is ageless......I know it takes deep pockets to have her in a restored condition, but enjoy the ride through it all, "They don't make these iconic hulls anymore!"....just my thoughts!

Anybody have any other info? Still trying to figure it out.

I can't wait to have it done. It will be worth almost a 1/3 of what I have in it!!!!!

My internet laugh of the day . Thank you !
