What is it about a cig?

Your old 320 force is nothing like the 36 outlaw, I took 2 topguns out last year (94 and 98) both real nice clean boats (and both still for sale), I have to admit the engine compartment was done real nice but as for as fit and finish for the rest of the boat it's the same. I've never had any problems with either Baja I had. Built with same parts, hand laid fiberglass, bolsa core in bottom and sides,plexus bonding for hull to deck with threw screws, 502mpi, Gaffrig gauges, Mcleod electric seats,Kiekaefer controls, Vacuflush toilet, Custom paint in gel coat,snap in carpet, s.s rub rail,heavy duty pop up cleats, a/c and Ref which Cig doesn't have, both are actual size listed unlike fountain and formula.I know Cigarette has a great hull and that's why I origanally looked at them but 36 OL has more cockpit space , cabin is set up better and Cig designed the hull. Just Doesn't say Cig. I know alot of people like to trash Baja but thier build process is the same as the others, they just built more boats than all the others. Lower costs =sell more boats=best selling performance boat ever. Cig will always be #1 just like Harley but their are other options. Baja has a huge following.

The boat is here in CT. He will be using it in Long Island Sound. The funny thing is the boat was sold new here from Ocean Performance. Now about the Baja stuff I had one 10 years ago and it was a great boat. No stress cracks no issues what so ever I loved that boat, but truth be told once I went for a ride in a Cigarette in rough water I had to have one. It is that simple the ride won me right over. The Baja has a much bigger cockpit and is probably a more user friendly boat, it is definitely better hangin out on it. But when it comes to the ride quality it is Cigarette hands down IMO.

Relax
Here we go bashin Baja. I have a 99 36 outlaw that was on lake ozark then on michigan all it's life with no stress cracks and a way better cabin and cock pit than a top gun. By the way the 36 outlaw was splashed from a Cig if you didn't know.
I've always liked the 38 top gun but not enough space.

Ok back on task. I would love for Baja owners to defend their boats but this is a forum about What is it about a Cigarette?!!! I don't know what goes on on the Baja thread but I'm sure it is just titillating conversation about how great they really are. Great!! Cigs is what I want to hear about !!!!!
