I have to credit THISISTANK for the info: The Cafe 33' Open which the mold rights were eventually sold to Ocean Hawk (still built). Cig only build a few. I saw a Café 33 open at the NY boat show, they are awesome. The Ocean Hawks are great boats.

great thx, moved to costa rica about 8 yrs ago full time, now im living in medellin colombia been here for 3.5 years. no way you can own a big hp offshore boat here, it's tough enough build to a hot rod. lol im building a blown 48 anglia a buddy gave me that is 100% rust free, its getting a blown big block. i also have a pro touring camaro in florida im shipping down in a month in my container... 800hp 540 pump gas eng, 6sp, full dse chassis, etc... there are no speeding tickets here, so i drive everywhere like a mad man...
my buddy owns this island http://www.puntafaro.com/isla.html it is so amazingly pristine, we decided to build a dozen cottages to start, for an eco hotel/hostel.
i want to find a nice older aronow hull with a steep dead rise so the guest don;t get beat up going and coming... that have these launches they use that ride like a boston whaler...and hold 45 people... not a fun ride
i just missed a beautiful 27 magnum... trying like heck to find another... trying to find something in decent shape with twin i/o's for power... i only found one ocean hawk, it was in sad shape and he wanted 50k cuz it had the cig logo on the side. lol
if anyone knows anyone with a magnum 27 they might want to sell, pls let me know... take care all...rm
