Cigarette 20
 

Anyone know anything about the mid 70's-early 80's 20' Cigarette. Were they 24 degree bottoms and did all have the bow lockers? Any info about these boats would be appreciated.

Hey I own own one now....74.. from the few i have seen of the earlier models they have al had the lockers... as far as 24 deg is also what i have seen ..... kinda hard to find many specs on them although i have some ....

hey I know where there is one sitting around the corner from m house, it doesnt have an engine or outdrive on it right now but the gimble ring is there and it is for a volvo penta. it does have bow lockers. hey i am trying to buy this thing for my girlfriend to drive, what are they worth??? the interior is gone too, but it looks easy enough to stuff one of my extra 454's in and make it a toy for her.

can fit a 454 in no prob... have seen them fetch up to 20k for all original and even resto's on the earlier models.. hard to say what that one is worth...what yr is it....?

Hey Nasty Habit: saw pic of yours in the galleries section, nice, how does it run in the rough? Is there anything up under the bow in the way of storage?

You can stow a few things under the bow... vests or whatever but it is pretty tight under there..it si quite suprising how well it handles ...i've been in some 3' plus slop on more than one occasion, it'll skip right across the top..really a fun little toy...and pretty rare i've yet to run across another in any outings...that i like,.,.,.,.

That Cigarette had a 24 degree bottom and not all had that bow locker, just the early years. The drivrd were either Alphas or Volvo. The has 270 or 280 Volvo, have seen a 290 with poiwer trim and tilt but the owner had upgraded it. The boat is a good riding boat for its size and fairly dry.

I have been looking for the NASTY HABIT's pic in the galleries section but can't find it. Can you be a little more specific about where it is?

thanks i always loved the cig 20

Here it is.....

another...

Thank You, that is a great looking boat with those classic aronow lines.

I always wanted that boat for my first boat but it didn't work out that way. Maybe when i have some kids i'll be able to pick one up! Either that or as a tender to a big yacht!:eek:

thanks again

where in Fl are you?

it has been a great intro to the offshore world.... i've been in boats all my life . but always for fishing finding purposes...seems the fihing is not what it used to be... so here i go.....is the first a a collection .... and the wife is all smiles.... wait till i get the next..$$$$$ hey it's just money right.?

OH sorry am in Orlando....

it sounds like you are progressing well in your boating endeavors.

congrats and the best to you and yours.

i will be moving to St. Pete in the next month and will be boating full time in the tampa bay area.

do you just boat in orlando or to you travel with the boat to the coasts. maybe i'll see you around if you make it out to Florida's left coast?

take care, i am heading out to the marina right after i finish typing this.. Seas in the gulf are looking 2 feet but in the afternoon forcasts call for 3-5 footers!

I'll drag this thing anywhere....been wanting to get over to shell island..... am repowering at the present time.... should be done in a month...haven't been to Ft Myers in yrs.... i'd like to get down there....

nasty habit looks like a nice cig, i am getting ready to paint some graphics on my topgun, do you know of a good painter in orlando, thanks

Thanks....not really.....Orlando seems to be kinda shy on the offshore guys.........might give Marine Performance a call..they are in Daytona 386 322 4220 is a rigging shop but the can prob steer you in a good direction...for someone local....

The 20' Cigarette Started with a Bar bet of a thousand dollars to Aronow that he could not get back into the small boat Business again (he Owned Cigarette at the time)

So the next day down the street to Donzi and back comes an 18' for the Plug.End of story.Or as legend has it. LOL an 18 Donzi streached.

Best Regards
