38 Cigarette or Active Thunder 37?
I am adding this thread from the General discussion area in hope of generating some response from some Cigarette owners.
I am looking for some help in deciding the right boat. I am looking at a Cigarette 38 or Active Thunder 37. All of my my time will be offshore in south Florida. I am looking for a Cigarette 38 conventional bottom with big power, Cigarette 38 step hull with 500EFI, or Active Thunder 37 step hull with 500EFI. All will run 80+. My main concern is ride. Second is holding it's value, and third is cabin amenities. Cigarette is certainly on top with holding it's value, however the cabin amenities on the 2001 and newer models is nonexistent. Open to suggestions.
Thank you for looking, James

Contact Phil at Lip-Ship Performance in North Miami. I have just worked a deal on a new boat and am trading my 2000 TS Top Gun. The boat will run 90MPH with 500EFI's and Bravo XR's...no joke!! It would make an awesome poker run boat. It is very clean, very reliable and very fast. I just wanted to go faster!! This is a picture of it below. Feel free to e-mail me for any more pictures.

Heck, not even 2 A/T's add up to one Cigarette!! After all, Cigarette IS the American Offshore Legend!
I do not know what price Lip-Ship Performance has put on the boat. Contact Phil for the asking price. His number is (305) 933-9988 or contact them from their web site (a fantastic Cigarette site I might add).....

I loved this boat to death and just want to see it get a good home. I know that only the crowd on here can relate to that kind of feeling! Phil is a good guy and will no doubt work an honest deal on any boat. If you are looking for a Cigarette, Lip-Ship is your place! I can't say enough about them!!!
