Legend has it that an Aronow boat doesn't need steering of any kind to eat up the 8 footers. The wheel and single ram are simply a cosmetic upgrade

I'm with Dave M on this...1987 would have been a Café Racer, right? That's definitely not a Café...and doesn't look like a Mistress either. Looks more like a 36 Widebody if anything...

I don't know enough about them. However the dash does look suspect now that you mention it.

I like the old cigs, this ad is just ridiculous however. The fact that anything from the 80s that had any ties to Don is sometimes rebadged (and titled) as a cig is both a compliment and an insult at the same time

read this add... seems odd also that a 94 model had to be completely rebuilt in 98 :confused:

Cool boat. What mold was sold to force 10 then copied by Baja for the 36? Was it the 36 wide, or the Café?

I have actually BEEN in a 1986 Cigarette Flatdeck in 8 foot waves...there was no open drinks or we'd have been wearing them.

Not sure....Cig guys?

I have heard the 36 Outlaw came from a Cig...and having ridden in a couple...they are beasts in the rough.

Rebuilt...for $8000? And then a "staggering(ly)" expensive paint job added for $15k? Sounds like those TAOD customers have been getting ripped off big time....

Also...you are selling a boat. At LEAST straighten the drives out in the picture...

Maybe a 1979. That ad was making me laugh. I don't go out in 8 footers. When there are 8 foot waves my drink doesn't spill on the dock either. I don't care if it was rebuilt completely- I mean completely in 2000 that was still 14 years ago
