Is that one of those cigar boats? :D

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Nice rigging too, but ya know, with some TLC... :evilb: :D :evilb:

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

External steering!

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Oh yeah, a REEL DEAL. Sides just painted (by roller w/ latex paint from Home Depot).

Oh boy.

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I don't know... I could see Masher running that rig as is.

Or Too Old "Trick"ing it out right and never getting it wet...

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

You forgot to add HIGH-PERFORMANCE HYNAUTIC "VERY EXPENSIVE"

Wasn't Slickcraft the precursor to Tiarra and Pursuit boats?

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

WOW thats a sweet boat :rolleyes:

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Yep Cuda , and add S2 in there too - here is link to history if anyone cares.

Some consider Leon Slikkers to be sort of a "Father of Fiberglass" Boats. My partner had one of these and it was a handfull at speed. Forgot what the issue was but he ended up parking it at the front door and demanded to see Leon - he finally came out and made things right. Sank off Saugatuck and went down the road to a little un-known co. ( back then) and bought a Douglas Marine Skater - then he found out what a handfull that was too! Loaned it out and it sank also.

Gotta love that steering :D

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Man and to think about all the money i just spent on my boat when i could have had that.

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I like the "expensive hynuatic steering" thats a universal mount hydrualic cylinder out of the grainger or mcmaster car catalog that costs like 200 bucks :D

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

i like the ole M/T valve covers, you don't see those very often anymore..... :rolleyes:

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I AGREE THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS JUST OUTSTANDING!!! I WISH I HAD A CIGARETTE STYLE BOAT!!! THE STEERING RAM AND GOLD PLATED PROP IS REALLY CUSTOM TOO.

You Are Bidding On 17' 1973 Slickcraft Built For Speed And Luxury, This Boat Was Designed From The Style Of Cigarettes, Donzi's, Magnums, Etc. (thats Some Good Company, I See The Resemblance!!!)

The Boat Is Powered By A Small Block 351 Ci Ford With A Mercruiser #1 Sterndrive. The Outdrive Has A Low Water Pick-up, The Steering Is High-performance Hynautic "very Expensive"(it Looks Expensive)

, The Boat Is Equiped With Two Fuel Tanks, The Sides Have Been Recently Painted,(freshly Rolled As Stated Earlier)

There Are Some Scratches That Can Be Fixed Up. Over All The Boat Is Solid And Capable Of Running Fast Thru Rough Conditions.(must Be An Apache Knock-off)

She Has A New Interior That Shows Nice. The Boat Sat For Many Years, We Put A Battery On Her And The Engine Does Turn ,(thats Promising)

With Some Work You Can Have One Hell Of A Speedboat, What You Have Here Is Is An Old Muscle Boat That With Little Effort Can Be Put Back In Action!! That's It!! No Trailer In Auction. ( Cant Believe They Wouldn't Throw That Nice Trailer In Too!!!)

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Hey at least Insurance will be cheap :D

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

and those 17 footers are known for their rough water abilities..... :D :D

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

That sh1t is hot :p :evilb:

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Look like nice new risers! How would you ever pull that motor? It would be more worth your time to cut the boat in half with a chainsaw.

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I'm going to win the boat and show all of you how fast and nice she really is.. Draggin it behind my truck with no trailer!

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Just throw it in the BACK of your truck!

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I'd hate to scratch my truck hauling that piece of crap around!!

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I wonder who holds the copyright to the branding of this boat??

This guy uses a 2 bladed prop. Notice one "ear" of the prop is nearly straight with zero pitch or cupping and the other "ear" is about 60 pitch. Probably runs like a washing machine with a big carpet in it. :D

I think the most fascinating thing about this dinghy is that it has one-sided external steering on the drive (I assume you can only turn in one direction...right or left...sure in the h*ll hope the reverse gear works to complete a turn) that looks like it both steers and holds the drive on the boat. Typical of cigarette rigging. :drink:

Also for further noise reduction the hub of the prop looks like it has been covered with bondo and packaging tape and that appears as well to hold the 2 blades on the hub. So if you hit a rock no damage to the internals. :p










Sweet ride.... :p

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

Built for speed and luxury.. how can anyone refuse a machine like that

Re: you to can own a cigarette for only....
 

I heard this boat was purchased by an OSO member. Alright its time to fess up, who bought this quality ride???
