Off To California.
This was way harder on me then I imagined.
Wasn`t just a boat to us, like a family member . We made great memories on this boat , my kids grew up on the boat we had many a trips together as a family that are priceless.
Also many hard times and frustrating times. 1000`s of hours of labor , sweat , blood and tears, and barells of $$
It ran better than ever but I knew I can`t pull another engine or drive on this boat .. can`t do it anymore.
I wish I would have had the time to test out the brand new props I ordered but it sold in 8 hours so I didn`t get that chance .
I have a deposit on a Nortech 3600supercat, I think that helps lol

Congratz on both Dan. Time to build new memories that will continue to last a lifetime man. The 36 Nortech IMO is an awesome ride. My wife and I have always loved that model. Cheers!

I remember when Dan first started tearing into the gas tanks and I thought to myself this guy doesn’t have an idea the can of worms he’s opened up, but he persevered and than just kept improving his Cig over the years.
Many have started projects on this site and later walked on to other things .
It’s been very interesting and informative following his threads over the years and hope his new Cat isn’t on its 8th Life 🙀 but this site needs the followers. 😹

So true .. I remember when I first joined the site, I bought a 25' Active Thunder and I didn`t know what the lanyards did. You guys had a good laugh over that one.

Way cool.
Love it, love it, love.
Your Cigarette, a Cigarette, could not have had a better care taker than you.
Mr Don would be proud.
Well done sir and welcome to the next chapter!
