The 39 with 700's might be the best "all around" boat Cigarette has ever built.

The 39' with 700's I have to agree is a great ride, but don't give to much credit to the engine package??? The 39' Cigarette is a great all around boat, No matter if it has 525's or 600's, it's a great boat, a great all around boat with 700's,,,,, BUT it is totally awesome with 850's or 1075's. At 120 MPH with 1075's, no bounce, no bunny-hopping and definitely no chine-walking.......... just hauling asss.

Bravos are only junk when combined with too much power. For a 496/500/525 powerplant on a decent sized boat they are excellent. Now with 750HP pushing a Black Thunder.......they aren't up to that task for long........

they went fom trs to the bravo, talk about taking steps down...
great example of getting less for your money, i would never, ever, buy a 38 ft boat with bravos.. it doesnt really even make sense, but its what has been shoved in our faces and we put up with it...

I'm just saying all around, reliability, power, drive strength, size, price for what you're getting, towing ease, storage space needed, handling, and doing it all at 105-107 depending on the #6 diameter props you run, it's tough to beat.
