You mean you didn't throw down a deposit for a new one?

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

30 Vice that we took out. It was at least 4 feet bigger than my 29 beak. It ran great. Maybe a tiny bit smaller cockpit than my 29 but with some slight modifications it would fit me just fine. 496s and we ran right up to 81 and it was over propped a size. Really nice running boat. Very comparable to the room/size of a 35X. It has my vote easily over the 35X... and the price isnt that much more at all.

It's tough when you have Cigarette taste on a Bayliner budget :evilb: :D

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

It was unreal how clean it was. All day I was there a guy was running that little floor buffing machine around... amazing. The whole place was clean as a whistle....

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

More AM II... they did a photo shoot for it that day and it was unreal how that thing looked in the sun....

GLH I thought you were a Cig Guy?????? :D Beak Boats are all good, welcome to the club :drink: :drink:

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

That 42X they had GL's name all over it. It had 1075s too I think :D :D
The 39 Unlimited was my favorite.... with 850s or 1075s and 6s would be an awesome set up.

GL, my loan application with you is now up to $800,000.... am I approved? :evilb:

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

Masher.........How'd the boat look?? Did Rob say anything about the "special" photo shoot that's supposed to take place today??

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

Mav it's a good thing you don't have a cabin. All this attention would make it hard to get your head through the door. :D :D :drink:

What are they doing to the boat?

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

who's doing the paint for cig now that TAOD isn't anymore. Those are some of the best paint jobs I've seen! :eek:

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

Looked Great !! They were in it taking the exhaust out to put that new polish on it.... I saw a pair #6s with the same polish on them that is going on yours and it literally looked like a mirror.
I did hear about a photo shoot... they were there taking hundreds of photos of American Muscle II and they have a write up / show on CNBC and some other major publication so it might be in one of those....

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

They were mostly Taods and Dave Hunters.... they are also doing alot of work in house now... they were doing an engine hatch when I was there and it was awesome..

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

HaHaHa.........That's funny!! I definately can't wait
to get this baby home so i can actually get some seat time in her!

They are just fixin a few small things like one of the latches wasn't working right and small stuff like that. Didn't want to pull it all the way to Oklahoma and have some little things like that needed taken care of. Also NEEDED :D a bigger speedometer.

I'll be up at Grand the weekend of the 15 staying at a friends place right across from The Deck. Might see ya at Drip. You need to get me some girls lined up for me up that way.

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

Always need a good hammer and duct tape for a good job :evilb:

Re: Cig Factory Pics 4-19-05
 

My thoughts exactly!! They don't look like Ford motors!! :D
