Hi all,
Does anyone know anything on the ride quality and/or performance of a early to mid nineties Eliminator Eagle vs a Cigarette Top Gun.
Both are 38' with traditional V hull. I'm considering one of these boats for offshore use but have not had any experience with them.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I think the Gun is a bigger boat (no swimstep). My 35' Cig actually looked big next to a 38' Eliminator, but I think the Eliminator has a wider beam.

The Cig is a real 38' boat, and can handle any kind of chop, but then again, I own a Cigarette...
