All 3 are good boats and I have ridden and driven all but the Sunny. However I have seat time in the F4 Sunny (does that count).

The TG will have the best ride, best handling, best ergonomics and best resale. The sunny will be the fastest with same power. The AT / Cig will be at similar speeds with identical power. The AT will have the most creature comforts and deeper cockpit. You will be "the man" with a Cig.

I've been in a 36 Sunny 700/NXT boat on LOTO on a Saturday afternoon with Wayne on the sticks. Ran it up to 90 MPH but had to pick and choose when he could run it up that fast. Boat is on rails. Tres did a great job with the bottom.

Why the pick and choose? Not saying id want to run hot and heavy in rough but curious as to the throttle control.

A ride in a F4 would be a blast.

Cool thing with a sunny is it's different. Again, comfort is key as having 4-8 people on the boat will be the norm. It seems that the sunny provides all of the above with a great hull. Albeit it won't handle OSO 7'ers like a cig, seems it would manage most of inland water (Cumberland) and a trip to Florida if we ever did it

I don't know if you're in a hurry to do anything soon but I keep my 37 A.T. down there and stay at State Dock. I would be glad to take you out for a spin this spring if you would be interested.

Because you don't run 90 MPH across 50' Sea Ray wakes on a Saturday afternoon on LOTO in a 34' boat.

Before i bought my first Cig i was too thought about getting a new Sunsation compared to used Cig

Sunsations are great boats but don't compare to the Cig and for me it was a decision i never regretted
