Right you are, she was the Mad Mother.... I thought about getting her when it was for sale last year but I have to many classics already that are in restoration. I never knew why they were setting her up for Alpha drives after repairing the transom . This will take much work to bring her back to her glory days but should be well worth it.

i couldnt agree more on the alphas! im thinking hard about redoing the intire thing. stringers and transom. and dropping the floor as low as possible as its set up now for step down in front cockpit area. what ever i do, keep the alphas ( limitimg my hp) or going to bravos, im very excited to get going. it will definitly be well worth it!

spring is in the air..... I would love to just stare at the hull after your glass guy got thru with it! no better lines in a 27 than the mag, cigarette squadron 27 and maybe the new GTMM27. Jason....did you see that 27 squadron resto boat in the classifieds? it's the Cigarette tribute boat. It is sick! Richie Zul 900hp Merc 6 drive, check out the OSS classifieds under Cigarette. Hell lets sell our boats and buy this one!
