Maybe with more guys scaling their boats we will find out if the cigs are slow cuz they are heavy, or slow because the bottom design resembles a 1974 deep vee fishing boat
Speaking of bottom design, let me congratulate you & ICDEDPPL on your avatars!

Thats not a light boat imo. Well, for what you would think a modern 35 Fountain at least. Prob close to 10k lbs fully fueled on the water.

Actually that is pretty heavy for a 30' boat.
