New Cig in Chicago next summer

Just found out today that my friend that was in Sarasota with us last week, bought the new 42 X that was for sale at JJ's performance in Ohio. We talked with the owner at the awards banquet, and he showed Felix the boat on his laptop.
We're going out there as soon as we have a nice weather day to sea-trial the boat, sale is pending on sea-trial.
Felix is not a CPC member yet, but is anxious to join our club. His new boat has the Merc 850 S/C package with #6's. If the boat runs as fast as J&J's claims, I'll be bringing it back here for him. As soon as I see it, I'll take some pics and post em.

C00L! If I had the coin for a new cig it would be a 42X.

Spoke with him yesterday, he said that he was told 106-108 with Merc props. Add amother 4-7 mph for putting Herrings on. Boat's got air and a gen. too.
