I own a citation, 19ft cuddy cabin and was just wondering if anyone had any
information on citations. Are they still being made? If you own one do you
like it? Have you had any problems with it? e-mail me at bo...@aol.com

Citation out of columbia is still in business. HIN: FSJ, phone number
803-276-2559. Citation Manufacturing out of salt lake city os out of business.
HIN TAX.

I had a 19' 1986 Citation 190XL for sale all spring and summer but no buyer.
Nice hull and layout and 48 mph with v-6 but wood rot at engine cover and bad
upholstery. tried to get $6000.00. Owner of boat finally said "Hell if I
can't get $6,000.00 out of it I'll just keep it."
He only paid $8,000 for it and let it sit outside for three years without even
a cover. Probably could have gotten $5500.00 if he would have let me sell it
for that.

Yes, Citation is still around, just saw them last weekend at the
Cleveland boat show.
My cousin got a 19 ft cuddy last year and has been extreamly
disappointed in it. It averaged a trip back to the shop every 2 weeks
during the season.

I'm positive Citation is out of business. They used to be made in
Chapin, SC.

I need to apologize. I was wrong on this one. Even though I distinctly
remember the demise of Citation boats, I went to the local boat show a
few hours after posting the response above and saw Citation boats for
sale. They are now made by Sea Pro, but they carry the Citation name.

To try to answer Bozdb's original question, the original Citations are
no longer being made. A similar boat with the same name is still being
made by Sea Pro.
