I just stumbled across this thread and I'm both surprised and interested. I'm getting that itch that only a new boat can cure and I really like the 42X. I've crawled around on the 39 and it just doesn't have the cockpit room that I'm used to with my A.T. but I'm guessing the 42 would have.
Hey Mike, believe it or not the actual floor space is about the same between the 39 & 42. 42 is a much deeper cockpit though.
Thinking of leaving the cult huh? Will Tom still be your friend if you do that?

39 unlimited
There's a 42x in Port Clinton that's at a powersport at boat shop, etc. It's listed with suncoast here in Oso classifieds if you wanna check one out. Has some salt issues but noting major. I like the amount of room they have and hull design. Don't waste your time putting a offer in salespeople they are douche bags. Offered them what they were asking took all my information and never returned a call. One of those it's forsale but it's not forsale waste your time deals.

Originally had a 1992 38 TG w/525 SC Hawks, then I went from an 2006 39 TGU 525 boat that did 88 mph to a 2009 42X 700 boat that does 108 with 5 blade Herrings on it. Took it on the Key west Poker run last November (2013) and the boat was without compromise.The 700 package is more than enough power in this boat without the high maintenance required on the 1350's.
I loved my 39 until I purchased the 42X. A fabulous boat, deeper, faster, steadier and much better in the big water. Normally it is in New Jersey and the summer waters here can change in a matter of minutes. Never felt that I could not get back due to water conditions in this bad boy. Not using it much now, no time, left it in Florida so I would part with it if I find the right home for it. It is a one off paint scheme. Beyond beautiful, like nothing you have ever seen. 104 hours on it currently & always stored indoors other than on a lift June thru September for 2 seasons but with a deck cover of coarse to keep it clean and the sun off.
