Re: Has Cigarette lost it's way???
CIg's are great boats without a doubt. However, it's time to either go racing, or give up the World Champion moniker. Let someone who has a title recently use it..

Re: Has Cigarette lost it's way???
I think after The East side poker run where NONE of these big new "Offshore"
boats would run....That they have ALL lost there way !! 4-6s with some holes {turned into 8s at the bar}......I give up....Cats are the way to go...smooth water speed is all that maters anymore.... Except for the 235 Force that ran it !!!!!!!!!!!! |

That patch says it all... the priorities of the brand used to be performance. Now it is name recognition and overpriced cotton.

Re: Has Cigarette lost it's way???
1st off my opinion being owned a cig for the first time in my life. while I would owned other brand like OL or Fountain , hustler or Sprectra. they would be my 2nd boat I will always own a Cig.
everyone in our area now knows where we live because of Rampage, I let my brother take it out he felt like a celebrity. that is what Cigarette does. Do they need to prove top speed with out a doubt they could in any condition. but they don't have to. To Reggie awesome job and glad to see that he has such a love for the sport. I am glad that he kick a** fountain are great boats. OL what can you say yeah they are sweet boats but with a price tag that makes them think they are tops. My only hopes is that Reggie had more throttle because with 1 engine down they now know what they need to beat. Bring it ON. Too Old , while you are admired here by me any so many others, I would not think that you would put down such a legend. every boat has it own shine on different waters.Cigarette holds its own on flat and shines in the rough. |

And cig is working on improving itself. Look at the new 39. Not a huge jump but it is different from their norm. Fountain wants to be the fastest. Cig doesn't need to prove it's the best....it just is....it's an industry standard. |
