The 33 is a gorgeous boat- especially that one. Sort of a cut down 36, or a giant 24, depending on perspectibe. Either way, they don't get much better.
 
can i ask a silly question??? were you sent an email and asked to put your boat in our classifieds???

Nope. I've been a member here for months, just don't post that often. But, I know the power of the SOS board and wanted to reach those that can really appreciate the boat.

Thanks.
 
Boat is SOLD!!

WOW! That was FAST!

Unfortunately, the Cig is leaving LOTO and going back to the Chicago area (Chain o' Lakes). Very ironic, new owner knew the boat from before I purchased it, saw it listed and came a bought it.

The best part, though. Our 4 year old son, who has only known this boat was not happy about Daddy selling the "#1 boat" (as he called it), while I was pushing it out of the slip for the last time he muttered a soft, "Bye" and gave the boat a kiss on the bow. Almost brought tears to my eyes. We had two final priceless days on the Cig this weekend. The stories of our family on this boat will last forever in my mind, but it's time for a new chapter....... THE HUNT IS ON!!!

Congrats to the new Owner!
