Default (Cigarette) HI-TECH Hawk Super Sport 18'

Does anyone have any info on this outboard powered cigarette look alike 18' long, 5'10" beam 24 degree deadrise no pad boat?
They were built by Billy Spadaro on Long Island NY in the mid 1980's, he also built the 13' long, 4' beam Mini Hawk (Hot Dog) boat. Any additional info performance, rigging etc. would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thank you for the input.
I have been told by some people that due to the very narrow beam, to mount them horizontally.
What is your opinion?

Did the boats you saw have a passenger seating area forward of the drivers windscreen (bowrider)?
