I just bought a 42' Squadron XII. Does anyone have any information on the history or rareness of this boat? Any info would be greatly appreciated

When Don Aronow sold Cigarrette racing team he had a non compete clause that allowed him to build only 12 boats a year, hence the name Squadron 12. So there are very few of the Squadrons around. Do a search on this site.

Ok I guess this a 39 foot, # 16 hull made. Thanks for the help. Is there anyway to find the history on this particular boat. Thanks

Was that the pleasure version out of "Custom Marine Sales"?

It is a pleasure version but we got from an estate sale from an older gentleman that passed away about a year ago.

Awesome ! Good luck with Her.

The only other one i know of is with a flat deck, Dry Martini... the green boat in the back.

Here you go 81 Squadron XII,

Keep us posted on the restore.

We don't have the engines at the machine shop yet, but I assumed they were 400hp 454's. Anyway to tell?
