Strip,
If you could do it all over again, would you opt for the Hustler 388 Slingshot, Cigarette 38 Top Gun or other (used)? Why?

Thanks,
Dan

Theres a lot of things I like and dislike on both ,I am a little abnormal though,I wouldnt be happy with anything anyway I can nick pick em to death. If the Hustler had a better bottom for above 100mph I would be a lot more happy, maybe put a Fountain bottom on it I drove a buddies 01 39 Cig the other day and was impressed,kinda supprized me that it would do 81-82 on 500's,It rides good !! you can tell its a little heavier than my Hustler.The Price it a lot higher on the newer models.

if the Cig had a smother look, no cut outs for cleats,fuel fill stuff like that,a better cabin for the girls, like a head,The new 39 and 41 are looking better for me .

I bet Cig's customer service is better than Hustlers!!

My next boat I hope to have speedmasters on it and they say the Hustler 388 doesn't like and run well with them.

I am liking the 43 Nortech's but ya have to put a bunch of power in them to get them to a 100, there heavy.


It would be 50/50 on buying another Hustler, I would have to make some changes to it

One thing about the Hustler when I bought mine there wasn't another one with in 200miles.Like the others youll see a few of the other name brands and 100 Fountains.But the new Fountains are FAST.

Do you think the 38 top gun handles & rides better at the higher speeds

I think the 38 pp will take more to get there, but will be rock solid. I know ours is rock solid at 80+ in all conditions. It will also out turn any other 38 stepped hull.
