optioning a new cigarette
#31
Funny I was thinking this from the onset.....If I was in the market for a new boat of any brand I might reach out to a specific owner to see what they like/dislike about the brand or what are the best options to get but certainly wouldn't post an open end thread.

Phil is the most knowledgable Cig guy out there, no question about it but is his expertise worth 40K extra on an already expensive boat especially when the boat is going to be a 700/NXT boat (many already made, not exactly custom/one off)?
That 40K is not coming back at resale. Look at OSO classifieds, the Lipship boats don't pull a 40K premium on identical year/power Cigs.

Never.....Just saw in a Powerboat article that the "Lipship" package was 40K (I believe it was the Purple 42X 700 boat). http://www.boatingmag.com/cigarette-42x
I wouldn't build a new Cigarette. I like Nortechs far better!
