I don't have the personal experience on those 2 to say for sure but you'll get a million responses telling you the cig will handle 8s just fine. Lol. I've talked to plenty of 38 fountain owners who have no complaints

This boat finally gets close and I notice there is a #1 on the side, I said oh cool there's a race going on, so I dropped the anchor and waited for the rest of the field. After waiting about 45 minutes and no other boats came by I wanted to know what that was all about. I pulled the anchor and throttled up to about 3800, 35 seconds later we pulled along side the boat with 6 dudes and #1 on the side and realized it was a cigarette. So I killed one engine and slowed down (he was already going slow) and asked what's the deal with the #1? He said hold on and I'll show you. I was like umm ok, so he slams the throttles down, and slowly takes off. I tell my skanks to get off their knees, pull up my shorts, and ease the throttle forward, as I pull along side I fired the other engine and leave him safely behind thinking to myself I wonder what he was gonna show me? Oh well, guess I will never know.

I was running my TG down the intercoastal one day with my board of directors on board heading for a beach party hosted by Venus Swimwear on a private island in the bahamas when I ran past a small beaknosed runabout with 5 fat skanks and a naked drunk dude with 30 chains on throwing up their arms. I slowed down to see if they were gonna catch up because I thought they might be the beach cleaners for after the party and they knew they couldnt get there in that little boat. They came up alongside us and asked if they could ride with us and I said no room, cause the skanks were really fat but that I would show him how to get there We figured they might be willing to risk it for a paycheck even though it was only 2-4 footers if they ran in our wake but when we turned toward the cut they high tailed it back down the intercoastal I remember thinking to myself I wouldnt do that either in that boat.
