Well that won't tow well! Nice boat but like the 56 NT and 57 MTI not sure what you do with it! All 3 suffer from the "bigger boat, more HP now we need more fuel" but then that makes the boat heavier so it is slower equation. It will get a lot of press, hope it runs good for the new owner.

Sexy sextuple will sell!
Bravo! I find the name Tirranna very apt for this impressive craft. Guess it means "running waters" in an Australian aboriginal language. People with the coin to buy this sextuple motored yacht are maybe educated enough to know about the renowned house, famously designed by celebrated architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The computer-generated imagery video is both spectacular, unique and cutting edge. Always fun when market leaders dare to break new ground on all levels. Here's a company that does almost everything right, so I got to ask, WHY 50th? Now, let's see if the Cigarette Racing Team brass, got the brass balls, it at this stage takes, to admit that 2019 is the year for the Cigarette Racing Team company to celebrate its 49th anniversary, not its 50th? Heck, they might even sell some boats here on 'The Left Coast' if they did a 49th Anniversary Edition for us. We can't really relate to what used to be our Scarab boats anymore and the truth is that we are fond of the number 49.

Excellent video presentation but it's not me. The boat looks beautiful and I love outboards but seeing six of them take up the whole transom looks a bit strange. Once you get to that size boat, especially an outdoor entertaining style boat, I'd prefer diesel inboards and a large boarding platform
It's hard not to love everything Cigarette build because their boats are about as good as it gets. I'm sure there will be buyers for this new flagship with a pedigree and my opinion doesn't count for much but I'm still entitle to it.

Cigarette racing team, the company, was founded in 1969. To me it really doesn't make a difference that they sold their first boat in 1970. They're celebrating 50 years of the company's existence, not necessarily 50 years since their first boat delivery.
Similarly, BMW was founded in 1916, but didn't sell a car until 1928. In 2016 they celebrated 100 years of BMW. Oh well, its all marketing anyways.

Date and dating; transom grace bounds for happy space...

I respectfully disagree about the 50th anniversary, personally I don't think it matters too much.

P.S. Now Don was a marketing genius, so it's easy to get confused by his advertising. If his 1963 Formula 233 'The Cigarette' had won The World Championship he would have maybe changed this ad to say; Don Aronow's Cigarette Racing Team Multiple World Champion since 1963. D.S.
