hands down,,cigarette..you just dont hear the horror stories about rotted stringers,,their boat can sit in monsoon and the stringers still wont get wet..lol..they are just tuff boats..if you really dont care about speed,well under 80 look at a cafe racer..they are a good built boat..

Best built old boats .....Cigarette and Apache, hands down are the best built and most solid, Sutphen also, I have a buddy with 3 of those, seeing them in person, built solid as fuk and lots of resin and bulkheads...
