Questions About 42 Cig. "It's Good To Be King"

GETTINBYE · 06-12-2002, 10:07 AM

Does anyone know anything about this boat? Saw it at Smoke on the Water milling around the docks. Did not get close enough to get a real decent look. Saw it later as they were headed back north around Holland and at that point it was kickin ass. What are the particulars on the boat? Engines, speed, etc.? It may have even been a 46 as I was never really that close.

Any info is appreciated.

Thanks & Be Safe.

I believe it is a new 46' Rough-rider, but I am not sure about the power...???

Anybody? Anybody??

I think that's the one that is all white with the American flag graphics on it. I also thought it was a 42' Tiger but it could very well be a 46' Rough Rider. I saw the boat down in St. Joseph during Memorial Day weekend....therefore I beleive it must be locally owned---sharp boat. He's the one who was catching up to "Victory's" during the poker run. Plus I think he may have passed Victory's but I was losing the angle on them and were quickly moving out of sight. But that Rough Rider was definately catching the Victory's boat.

KAAMA,

I agree, I think its a 42 but I never was able to get close enough to confirm 42 or 46. It indeed was the one with the flag graphics.

There was at least one other 42 with red and black graphics and a tigers head toward the bow that I saw and there was one 46 with multi colored graphics (blue, yellow, red, black, & gray I think). I think that is the one with the Torque V -12's but not 100% on that.

The one with the flag graphics did have Michigan registration #'s on it so it is at least somewhat local.

Tbonepmp,

You may be correct on the 46, just never able to get close enough to confirm other than it was one of the two.

Be Safe,
Mark
