Youโ€™ve GOT to see this one in slow motion and high resolution. Dirty Duck Racing gets some serious air Saturday at the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout. ๐Ÿš€

Three in the world. One headed to Lake of the Ozarks.

Now THIS is the kind of boat that gets our attention.

OPC friend and fan Brian Dodge of Columbia, Tennessee is bringing something to LOTO that most performance-boat fans have probably never had the opportunity to see in person โ€” his 2026 Simmons 27R Sig.

And when we say rare, we mean RARE.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Only THREE currently in the world
๐Ÿ”ฅ Custom-built performance boat
๐Ÿ”ฅ Built by ES Custom Boats / Simmons Custom Rigging
๐Ÿ”ฅ Coming from Columbia, Tennessee to Lake of the Ozarks

Simmons isn't a mass-production boat builder cranking out hundreds of identical hulls.

Their world revolves around custom performance boats, high-end marine rigging and custom fabrication, with a philosophy centered around quality, attention to detail and doing things right.

That makes Brian's new 27R Sig even more interesting.

We've been featuring plenty of old-school offshore iron lately โ€” Cigarette Top Guns, Flat Decks, Cafรฉ Racers and other boats that helped create the performance-boating lifestyle we know today.

Brian is bringing us something from the other end of the spectrum.

Brand new.
Extremely limited.
Custom built.
And currently one of only three on the planet.

That's pretty damn cool.

Simmons has built its reputation around performance-oriented boats with custom rigging and fabrication, and their builds can incorporate everything from Mercury Racing power and sophisticated marine electronics to custom seating, SeaDek, lighting and highly detailed rigging.

But with a boat this new and this rare, part of the fun is simply getting the opportunity to see one up close.

And where better to bring it than Lake of the Ozarks?

LOTO is one of those places where you can walk down a dock and see a beautifully preserved 40-year-old offshore legend tied up beside something that represents the newest generation of performance boating.

That's what makes this lake different.

Brian is making the trip from Columbia, Tennessee, and we're looking forward to getting our first look at the 2026 Simmons 27R Sig.

With only three currently out there, we're guessing Brian won't have much trouble answering the question:

โ€œWhat the hell is THAT?โ€

๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿ‘‡ OPC fans, let's hear it:

When you're walking the docks, which makes you stop faster?

A rare brand-new performance boat that you've never seen before โ€” or a beautifully restored old-school Cigarette?

And more importantlyโ€ฆ

Who's ready to see Brian's 27R Sig running at LOTO?

Keep your eyes open for this one. There aren't many places you're going to have the opportunity to see one โ€” yet.

Our fans clearly have a thing for Ci******es โ€” and this Cig screams America.

Meet OPC friend and fan Joe Tormey of New Lenox, Illinois, and his 2000 Cigarette 38 Top Gun, wearing a head-turning red, white and blue patriotic paint scheme that looks right at home flying across Lake of the Ozarks.

This isn't a boat that quietly slips into the dock.

It looks fast sitting still โ€” and the hardware under the hatch makes sure it doesn't disappoint.

Joe's Top Gun is powered by twin Mercury 509s topped with massive 8-71 blowers, putting the power to the water through Mercury XR drives.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Red, white & blue patriotic paint
๐Ÿ’จ 38 feet of American offshore attitude

There's something about a pair of blown big blocks behind you that modern technology just can't duplicate. The sound. The vibration. The blowers sticking up under the hatch.

Combine that with the unmistakable lines of a Cigarette Top Gun and a paint scheme that looks like it was made for a Fourth of July run across LOTO, and Joe has one seriously cool performance boat.

Joe makes the trip from Illinois to enjoy Lake of the Ozarks, and when we asked what he likes most about LOTO, he summed up one of the reasons so many boaters keep coming back:

โ€œThere is always something to do โ€” from poker runs to just coving out.โ€

That's Lake of the Ozarks.

One day you're running alongside some of the best performance boats in the country during a poker run. The next, you're anchored in a cove with friends and nowhere you need to be.

Go fast. Cove out. Meet people. Do it again tomorrow.

And whether Joe's Top Gun is blasting across the main channel or sitting tied up in a cove, we're guessing that red, white and blue Cigarette isn't exactly hard to spot.

Joe, thanks for sharing your Top Gun with the OPC community. A blown, big-block, red-white-and-blue Cigarette? Yeahโ€ฆ our fans are going to like this one. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

Now let's hear from the OPC crowd:

Does a Cigarette get any more American than this?

And if Joe handed you the keys for a Saturday at LOTO, are you taking this Top Gun on the poker run or loading the cooler and heading for the cove?

Tag your Cigarette, Mercury and offshore boating friends and show Joe's patriotic Top Gun some OPC love!

๐Ÿ“ธ Have a performance boat with a story OPC should feature? Send it our way. Ci******es, Skaters, Fountains, Formulas, custom builds, restorations and everything in between โ€” we want to share the boats and the people behind them.

Some boats never go out of style. A classic Cigarette is one of them.

Meet Ozark Powerboat Club friend and fan Josh Jarvis of Potosi, Missouri, and his 1982 Cigarette 38 Flat Deck โ€” a piece of old-school offshore performance boating powered by twin 600HP inboards.

Long before today's massive touchscreens, digital switching and computer-controlled everything, boats like the Cigarette 38 Flat Deck helped define what a true offshore performance boat was supposed to look and feel like.

And more than four decades later, Josh's Cigarette still has the attitude.

๐Ÿ”ฅ 1982 Cigarette 38 Flat Deck
๐Ÿ”ฅ Twin 600HP inboards
๐Ÿ”ฅ 1,200HP combined
๐Ÿ”ฅ 38 feet of old-school offshore muscle
๐Ÿ”ฅ Classic Cigarette style

There's something different about seeing one of these boats running across Lake of the Ozarks. The long deck, unmistakable profile and sound of big horsepower coming from behind you takes you back to an era when performance boating was raw, loud and built around going fast.

But when we asked Josh what he loves most about spending time at LOTO, his answer wasn't about horsepower, speed or even the boat.

โ€œI love meeting all the people.โ€

And we couldn't agree more.

That's one of the things that makes Lake of the Ozarks and the performance-boating community special. The boats might be what first gets everyone's attention, but it's the people you meet at the docks, events, restaurants, coves and out on the water that turn boating into a lifestyle.

A guy from Potosi with a 1982 Cigarette can pull into a dock next to someone with a brand-new performance boat, and within a few minutes they're talking horsepower, swapping stories and making plans to run the lake together.

That's what OPC is all about.

Josh, thanks for being an OPC friend and fan and for keeping an incredible piece of Cigarette history where it belongs โ€” out on the water and being enjoyed.

Now we want to hear from the OPC crowd:

Would you rather have a completely modern performance boat โ€” or 1,200HP wrapped in a classic 1982 Cigarette 38 Flat Deck?

And for our longtime offshore guys and girls, what classic performance boat would you put in your garage if you could choose just one?

Tag your Cigarette and old-school offshore friends and show Josh's 38 Flat Deck some OPC love!
