Default Which is the better boat?

Have the fortunate choice of being able to buy a Cigarette bubbledeck or a Bertram 38 - both boats hull are Kevlar. Which is the better boat in moderate seas? Both boats have Speedmaster 3A's -the Cig has 750hp, the Bert has 550hp.
Which boat would you buy?

If it is Really Rough all the time where you boat then the Cig all the way. If it's not Really rough then the bertram would be more fun. that cig is a big beast and needs big water to show it's stuff.

I think i know the cig.(bubble gum paint job?) That's the one I would pick, and repaint as fast as I could. Resale, equity...etc. The cig will protect you better in the long run.

We run a 36 Cig and it's outstanding. She's fun to run in all conditions.
