That boat is beautiful. It was parked next to our 42X at SOTW along with American Muscle!!

Enough 4 Play, The owner is fed up with tire kickers and wont waste his time taking dreamers for boat rides. Money talks Gary!! And you're way off.

Maybe that is why the owner of the one with 1075 is selling it because of the 105 mph I would have to agree with you.
I would be embarrassed to.

Re: 42 x with big power
Ok for all of you not wanting to associate a 42x with a 42 lightning lets even up the playing field. A new 47 lightning with 1075s and dry sixes. 117mph. enough said! with six person bolsters, gen, air and lots of comfort, and a new bottom design. That is more comparable to a 42x ciggy. Lake cumberland marine has the June 2006 powerboat mag cover boat in stock(I think its still 4sale?) It is by far one of the sickest fountains ever made. Same bottom as Rio Roses cat killer. Will blow the cusom paint right off of a 42x and the cabin has more hallways than a elementary school!

Oh by the way Tazz Ive never been in a 42 or 47 at speed that has ever chinewalked. Wildwarrior the 42 or 47 lightnings will accomplish what you are looking for. Lots of speed which can't be denied by anyone on this board and lots of comfort. The 47 should go on your lift nicely as we all know it is only a 42ft boat. It is certainly worth researching. Good luck to you.
