W O W did you just stirt the pot

I think the cig is the best riding boat out there. I have a 38 tg 2006 i love the ride. If you are looking for cabin amenities then the cig is not for you. I did test ride other boats and nothing really compares in ride or details, they are very soild riding boats.

Looking strictly at overall rough water (ocean, not rivers) performance at speeds over 85, I would put the 39 Sutphen up against any of the boats on the list. Comparing like power and comparing speed, rough water handling and ride comfort. Cig would probably have the best ride but the speed takes a hit. Problem is there aren't many 39 Sutphens even around. Now, if you are after the bling...different deal

I agree...awesome hull no doubt about it.!

I agree the details in rigging in a Cigarette are amazing. they turn it into art work.

I Think the best is the 36 nortech cat!

How much is insurance on a 36 cat?

Have you checked out the 37 Active Thunder?

Are you crazy in the head? What exactly did you not like? Say what you will about cigs but to say you're not impressed with the ride!? What cig did you ride in? I'll agree that straight bottom cigs aren't that great in flat water. Stepped or no steps, if it was anything over 4 footers, the only two boats I'd want to be in is an Apache or a cig.

Lower end budget under $70K and don't care about amenities I would be looking at these:
