i'd listen to DJD and Waterspeed. If they couldn't break it or roll-it, then it really is safe and stable 'cause God knows they're a bit nuts!!!

Russ,
The poker run is in late April. When I get more details I will post them.
Hope you can make it, we should have a good turnout for this event. If you
are thinking about coming and need slip accomodations, call Chris at
LightHouse marina 803-749-1554 ASAP. Let me know if I can help!

I went through a lot of boats! Bought a Cigarette years back then sold it (could not refuse the offer) then went through many other boats. I always compared the other boats to the Cigarette but there was no comparison. Went back to Cigarette. You pay more but it's worth it!

D- that's a good idea, that way when I break down I can still count on the wind to bring me home!

Kenny - Sean Stinson has driven both extensively. He came up to the SCOPE Poker Run last year in a 37' Outerlimits with #6's and big power. The water was extremely rough. I specifically recall him saying that the Outerlimits DID NOT handle the conditions as well as the Cigarette would have. He definately said that he got beaten up more in the Outerlimits and that the Cig was by far a better ride. That being said ... I don't think you can go wrong either way. Both are excellent boats, both have an excellent reputation, and both will hold their value. It really comes down to which one you like better. Also, didn't you tell me you have about $10k worth of Cigarette clothing?? You would have to redo your whole wardrobe!! Hmmm ... I think your stuff would fit me! I'm offering $0.10 on the dollar!

That's funny Jeffrey - you could get your jacket back...

The wardrobe is definately a factor in this!

I want to talk to you about the Tiger. I'll call you later.

i had 2 outerlimits the 37 is the safest
and best running boat and with merc 900
no cig will be able to stay with you,no
matter what sea conditions,those 37 run
more stable at over 100 than most boats at 80,they were designed by engineres not
ny business men,from a resale stand-point
they also cannot be beat good luck
PETE
42 OUTERLIMITS

kwb OL is faster till it's wicked. After that it's over. I've done both and there is no comparison. It all comes down to where you are goin and how badly you wanna get there. Good luck. Nauti Kitty
