ok, anyone that wants to know the history of this boat, here it goes! its a 93 Bullet with a flat-deck (one of only 2 ever made), Craig Barrie had it built for my father and his cousin for 30k, the deal was that they'd have to rig it themselves, but that the factory was all theirs after work hours, so my father and the navigator staggered 2 Hawk-Marine 510 engines in there, mounted bravo 2 drives, and had the same paint scheme it has now done for $500 (tho in the original colors which were purple with green pin-striping and the checkard flag going across the deck and down the sides), they raced it in B class as B-124 and were known as Team Cigarette, they raced it from 1994 until the death of one of their best friends in 1996.....at that point it went to puerto rico, raced there as the coca-cola boat, then came back to the states at some point. and now i'm here searching for the fate of this boat....it had the 3-man standing cockpit and the original interior was a light purple (to go along with the paint)
the picture above is the only one i've been able to confirm is actualy her...but she might be blue and yellow now with a 3 man standing cockpit that is yellow, but the flag on her deck should stand out...she was the first racing cig to have it....she suffers from a serious case of "chine walk" and runs about 92 full out, again, any info is greatly appreciated! |
It was ran as team hoggs breath a few years ago. I also do remember seeing it at the aqua toy store. At that time White Lightning was also there.

Jr. and i don't know what became of the other Oldthunder.... |
man, everything in those pics is the same as we had it, the purple fuel tanks and engines.... the purple sides.....looks like it may be the green pinstripping also.....but might be yellow, its a damn shame the interior is yellow, the original light purple was gorgeous with the boat! funny thing is he kept the green outlining on the front with a purple Cigarette?....
