Classic Cigarette 36 Widebody

Great pictures -thanks. So was the 41 the "Come on America"?

That's right bud! They were both "Come on America" boats, which related to the trucking business the original owner had, but their "real" names, were:

"I Imagine" - 41

&

"I Reckon" - 36


You must have seen them back then! :cheers2:

Never knew the back story hehind the names. Very cool. Thanks for sharing again. :sifone:
 
That mite just be my new favorite Ciggy ! ? ! ?

I dont know that i've seen one of these before ???
 

I checked into that one. About as original as it gets. I'm kinda looking for one. The only thing that turned me off was the bottom was painted & water really attacked the outdrives. He also said it hadn't been started for a couple of years ... didn't care for that either. The exhaust was different. On each motor, the exhaust manifolds emptied forward towards the bow, then turned around 180 degrees, merge into one muffler,then out the exhaust outlet at around seawater level. I'm going to try to attach one of the pics he sent me.

Here are a few more pics I found last week, from BACK in the day. I thought you'd like these. :cheers2:

They're scanned, so I apologize about the size.

Here's "I Imagine". You can see the name on the transom:







& here's "I Imagine", with "I Reckon" in the background, on their lifts. "I Reckon", is now called "Patriot Games":

I posted some of that boat earlier also :)
 
:cool:
I always liked those boats. Almost bought one last January, but less than 45 minutes into the survey Ed Cozzi called me and said he found "everything but termites" so it was not to be. Again, thanks for the pics.
