39' Cigarette from Manhasset bay. Runs 100 mph and does excellent in the rough. It's an 'ol 3 man bolster boat and it sounds nasty!!

For raceboats there can be only one- Buzzi's La Gran Argentina.
55 ft, 135 mph, 4000 hp and a race-record that proves everything.
It would eat up ANY other raceboat in the rough.

am a little late to the party here - just having read all the threads - many boats have the ability to go fast- but dont - Its the drivers- and throttle men who make them go - Having interviewed many over the years - two stick out in my mind - Ben Kramer - and Peter from AlliViete - I hope some one can post one of each of their interviews - Once you see these guys - you realize a lot- Ben was Ben - but when you see Peter - you would never think he would run a boat like that - a class act - and a hell of a nice guy - just my two cents - Phil

now - some one find interviews with both - and post them - T2X ?

The best 20 ft and under goes to the 20 cigerette. I had one for 8 yrs and with it you can hang well with the big boys comfortably .

I should have never sold it.
