Balsa has better shear and compressive strength for the weight than any of the composite cores. What material would you prefer?

Here we go...

concrete !!!


Balsa is OLD STYLE !!! heavy and will rot !!

Blasticore is the way to go , i don't like foam core either !!!!

I did not mean to stir this pot,,just stating that BALSA is the past !!!!

SORRY

I've had 4 Cigarettes dating back to 1976, and never had a single structural problem with any of them? The balsa only rots when it gets wet, which only happens if you gouge the boat, or flip it.......BOTH of which, I don't plan to do!

They've been building one of the most elite powerboats in the game for a looooong time, so I'm definitely not going to question the techniques they feel are best of what they're building.

I think part of what DD is saying is balsa was acceptable in 1976 but the materials have changed to better products but Cig has not.


I'm with you on the concept of balsa, much like Bugattis they are both fine until you do something stupid and get them wet!

There's really no other way to look at it, Cigarette is "The Top of the Food Chain" as far as the history of offshore boats is perceived to all boaters and non-boaters. Yes, the Apache is the holy grail of the lot, and Fountains are the fastest....but there is no denying the simple fact that (as GLH says), no one has ever come up to me and said "is that one of those ******* boats". They always say Cigarette.

Just my opinion, of course

If either of you can't figure out why the posts were deleted, feel free to call me @ 202-224-5499 and I would be more than happy to explain to you (A.) Why they were deleted and (B.) What it is as a website that we are trying to accomplish here.

This website was created and we've worked our azzes off in the last year to try to make it the best offshore boating forum.....and we're just beginning. Stayed tuned, there's going to be some changes.

There you go,using that Apache word
Actually, the Apache was originally a Cigarette also(extended Flat Deck). Cig rocks !!

The first line of our Forum Rules is "Be Polite, be respectful." Those posts were neither of those two things.

Additionally, we felt that the trading of personal insults added little value to a discussion regarding the material choice, construction or manufacturing methods employed by Cigarette.
