True Cigarette History
 

Look what I found. Most likely the only one left in the World. Don and Cigarette only built 3 43' Huntress boats. Each one came with a full set of custom towels. Found a hand towel, original. To think you got custom towels from the only King of Performance Boats, very cool.

Smith, you scum.... What else did you steal?

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Hey Scott What did a 43 huntress look like? Got any pics?

BTW I'll start the bidding at $10.00 :drink: Parnell

Re: True Cigarette History
 

I'd say he borrowed a lot of good stuff, I've raided the closet at Casa La Smith a few times and made out pretty well. Now the Dragon is #1 in his eyes I'm sure all the Cigarette goddies are long gone.

HA Ha!!!!!

Ha I have a 4" Sony color TV Brownie wanted to put in the console of the Decatholon? I have a pocket full of cash I owe Brownie for past dates he so generously introduced me too, as well as future bears and dinners. OOOppps no more cash ,can you say Tootsies, sure I knew you could.
Hopefully Sean will read this, He has the Original Brochures of the Huntress. It was a larger version of the 41'. It was very top heavey, rolled alot, hence only 3 made. Was powered by 3208 TA CAts.
Hey Parnel what up dude.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Ya Scott what else do you have? I agree with Brownie......you scum. cb

Re: True Cigarette History
 

I've been promising to put this stuff on the internet for a long time and just haven't had the time...but a career change this week should free me up to post what I got from Scott. Please bear with me, I'll get the stuff up soon!

Re: True Cigarette History
 

I have those as well. I've got a pretty good collection of classic Cigarette brochures, photo's, and articles. They are so old that I need to have them laminated before they disentigrate. You guys built an excellent boat. :cool:

Re: True Cigarette History
 

3? You and Craig didn't know it rolled alot after the first one? :D Scott I will be down in a couple of weeks and I'll look you up at the show. :drink: NK

Re: True Cigarette History
 

The Huntress was soooooo topheavy "How topheavy was it?" that a 100 pound girl washing it would make it list a foot when she was near the edge of the deck. They had to give the buyers their money back.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Brownie, What does this 100 lb. girl look like? Was she wearing a bikini? Naked? Got nay pictures?
Scott-
Inquiring minds want to know.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

One of these.........................

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Since all the Cigarette "Gurus" are on this thread...... :D

What can you tell me about a 91 Top Gun ? Any of you guys there in 91 ?
Thanx Paul

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Brownie you will alway's be my Hero. :hothead:

:eek:
PS Craig and I did NOT build the 43' It was way before our time 70's. If we did it would have tiped over with a 100lb cleaner.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

One more question for "The Gurus".......Who is the genius that came up with this idea? Best seat in any Cigarette cabin. Period. :D :D :drink: :drink:

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Perhaps, that's a Lovelace-influenced design. :D :D

Re: True Cigarette History
 

LMAO!!! I guess that it's possible. :drool: :drool: :drink: :drink:

Re: True Cigarette History
 

If that is the Bullet seat, I did it. That boat also had a "john" that you could sit on and open up the Wall Street Journal. We made the bowl ourselves. Smitty was "Test Shi**er"

Re: True Cigarette History
 

LOL! :D :D

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Thanks Scott ! E-mail sent...

I heard that storie about Brownie & the crapper...Always wondered if it was true....I wont ask you guys about the "special" seat !! :D ...Thanks for putting it there though !! :D :drink:

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Did you miss this thread I post not too long ago?

http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...rette+question

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Hilarious. :drink:

Re: True Cigarette History
 

While restoring the '89 Bullet I found a rusty rasp file by the holding tank. Was that Brownie's and wondering what the hell he used that for?

Re: True Cigarette History
 

I believe this picture confirms the worst. Not only can no one on offshoreonly agree on how big waves are, there seems to be a discrepancy about what a 100lb woman looks like. :eek: NK

BTW Nice to hear that they all got their money back. I would hate to see someone start a " I got screwed by cigarette buying a huntress" thread.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Generally speaking, if you wanted a standard interior (BORING!) you shouldn't have Brown, Smith, Layman, Barrie, Jenkins and Gowens on the product development team.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Brownie was the KING of cool ideas. When he left Cig. all the great ideas went with him. It was a big comode, comfy.

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Here it is. ;) :eureka: :eureka: :)

Re: True Cigarette History
 

What ever happened to Scott Layman?

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Anyone remember Buddy ?

He was one of the best riggers Cigarette had.

He was there in the late 70's & 80's.

When I built my 28 Race boat he rigged it.( he did some great job )

Lucky Strike

Re: True Cigarette History
 

Buddy Courier was his name, he was one of the best riggers of his time. He was a opionionarted grump, but knew his ****. After a few rum and cokes hge was a wild man. His son Harold paints all og Phil Lipschuiiltz Lip Ship edition Cigarette's, very talented.
Scott Layman lives in Georgia, his mother and he have a company called ZYVAX a mold re-lease and paint products. He will be at the Ibex show next week. He actually came the the Debu party for the Dragon last year.
