But since you bring it up...I owned a straight bottom TG and have literally thousands of hours in straight bottom Cigs AND T/S Cigs. I have to tell you I could not tell between the two boats regarding "better ride". I've read the arguments over the years that a straight bottom boat rides nicer in the rough but from my own personal experience between these two boats, a T/S rides just as nice in rough water as a Straight bottom and many that have owned both will contest that the T/S actually rides BETTER!
But it is what it is. Big heavy straight bottom boats (old cigs, Apaches, Scarabs and the such) will just be known as resin buckets and wave crushers. They will always have thay mystique.
