I think it's funny he fitted a sound system before thinking about a fuel pump and some electrics. It does look like a fun project albeit crazy but once completed, how will the $$$ stack up compared to owning a conventional boat for the money?

I would love to crank it up and get a crowd reaction to the afterburner.

It was purely for PR / Marketing . Built for exposure at SEMA and the like.

But yeh, if a company like Red Bull or Monster Enrgy built something like this, it would be running in public in frt of a crowd , stunt driver doing some amazing things to wow them, and of course professional videos of it so we can all watch and WOW.

I always love quotes like "could be made to run with about a hour of work".....if that's the case then why didn't you spend an hour and get this super rare boat running in the first place and get more $ for it?

I hate to say it, but I'd like to have it!

turbom700 06-04-2015 01:32 PM

I would to but not for 3500. 2k assuming the floor is in atleast half way decent shape.

Be cool to stick some old merc white "power towers" on her and let her eat.

Here is a few more pics of her. I found when playing on google

Indeed do you not see that prop covered in special go fast sauce.....:angry-smiley-038:

CrownHawg 06-04-2015 02:45 PM

I wouldn't run that TRAILER to 80!!

CDShack 06-04-2015 04:12 PM

Red prop is the key for sure, but the real secret weapon for an 80mph boat is the Home Depot home address stickers announcing to the world you get a beast in there!!!:D

( I also figure 80mph "or so" means 65mph)

anyone notice that 80 MPH Liberator has a lock around the front wheel of the trailer! :rolleyes:

I love those kind of locks, 99.999999% of the time if you attempted to drive away (with the lock on) it would pop like a shoestring once the tire made a full rotation and the lock tightened around the axle.

$400 35 Cigarette Project boat

http://treasure.craigslist.org/boa/5027116341.html

Old school offshore powerboat. 1975 35' Cigarette Project boat. The engines and transmissions are still in the hull as well as the transom plates and steering but the stern drives are missing. This boat has been outside exposed to the elements for a long time so will need front to back refurbishment. The hull appears undamaged and solid. The boat is currently supported on blocks so the buyer will need to have access to a trailer to remove the the boat.

Make no mistake, she's rough and in need of a lot of TLC. If you're up to the project, make an offer, come and get it.

He's mistaken...he'll be paying someone $400 to move that POS off his property.

That chit will buff right out!
That's is the perfect boat to do a 100k restoration on as it will increase in value over time! In 3011 it will be worth way over a 100 k, bet it will bring 115...

iliveonanisland 06-07-2015 08:17 PM

Why did CIG move away from the beautiful deck design?

turbom700 06-08-2015 09:41 AM

Was driving to the cabin this weekend and seening this thing sitting on the side of the road for sale. Remember seen it on the local CL.

Would this thing even get on plane with twin 500hp and how long would the Bravo last. The boat is HUGE, not sure what its doing in Minnesota no body of water around here for it.
