Looks like the paint jobs are slightly different but close. Still one of my favorite Tiger graphics packages. With or without the 88.

Hey Joe, I heard that Don Murphy Bought a New Tiger. He had the 45 Sonic with the tiger strips on it.

I liked the 45 sonic with the tiger stripes, but those stripes needed to be on a tiger.... maybe he will do the same thing if this is his.

Not sure... I was driving by Victory Marine yesterday and noticed the Sonic sitting outside after-hours. Maybe he sold it? I personally have never met him, so I can't say either.

It just dawned on me late yesterday.... We were sitting at Monty's in Feb. with a gentleman from NY/NJ (w/ bigchubby, thedonzjr., Tim, Tank and several other of us from Houston) whom just bought a new 42 from Philly. From what I understand this is his old boat --- but still not positive. If so, he's a VERY meticulous and nice guy --- ie: the new owner is getting a well maintained boat.

agreed, I was lucky, both the previous owners of my Tiger took care of it. There was nothing wrong other than normal wear and tear, even that was VERY minimal.

Don Murphy is the new owner of the cigarette. He has the long dock in the main part of the lake across from seabrook beach club. Johny Holmes bought the sonic from him. Litte Bill at Victory is fixing the head on the center motor. Should be on the water next weekend.

Did you ask Don if he wondered why Johnny's money was crispier than most $100's (because it was air-dried after Nixon bailed from the Baja and got their stash wet! hehehe.... ).

All in fun --- only kidding!

I have a pretty good idea where the money went. ( Only from rumors.) But i can assure you that Johny didnt end up with any of it. Before mike bailed he was pressureing Johny for the money that he had bored from him. I guess he needed cash to hide out. I know a guy that talks to mike about twice a month and he said he is getting out in 2-1/2 yrs. I dont think he will be coming back to houston....LOL
