The newest addition to the Cigarette menu of boats is the 42’ Tiger XP. Cigarette redesigned its bottom to meet the customer demand for more speed. While the 42’ Tiger was built to accommodate Mercury 575 engines with Bravo XR drives, the Tiger XP’s steps were rebalanced to handle the weight and power of high performance engines with #6 drives. The Tiger XP followed last year’s introduction of the popular 36’ Gladiator. While Cigarette Racing Team™ enjoyed its reputation as a great rough water boat, the company saw the value in refining its hull design to prove itself in calmer waters as well. The sleek version of the still-popular 38’ Top Gun won acclaim on the both the Poker Run and Offshore Racing circuits, as well as in the less-competitive recreational market.
