A Cigarette rendezvous reveals the misunderstood image of the Ozarks.
Loosely based on the life of Don Aronow, Speed Kills follows John Travolta as he portrays the speedboat racer and multimillionaire (renamed Ben Aronoff). But that’s not all that’s a little … off.
The largest offering in the Cigarette line, Tirranna is powered by six Mercury Racing Verado 400R outboard engines. But with 1,000 gallons of fuel on tap, it also boasts a surprising range.
When a few diehard Florida boaters put their heads together to bring the original Formula 233 back to her former glory, nobody knew exactly how the project would turn out. Which means everybody was surprised by the result.
The life of speed-demon boatbuilder Don Aronow was cut short in a hail of bullets, but he left a lasting impression on the people in his life. We spoke to those who knew him best, the key players of Thunderboat Row.
Power & Motoryacht’s first look at the Cigarette 42 Huntress. These boats still go really fast, but they also have some creature comforts that essentially make them supercharged, stepped-hulled, express cruisers.

I was down in North Miami at Lip-Ship Performance yesterday testing the Cigarette 39 Top Gun Unlimited for an upcoming story and heavens to Betsy does that thing have some pop. Twin 700-hp super-charged Mercury’s had us cranking by A-Rod’s house in South Beach at just over the triple-digit mark. So I crossed that one off the bucket list successfully. And by successfully, I mean without actually kicking the bucket while doing it.
