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.

Lip ship just did a 42x with 700 mercs and it runs 104 and he did one w/850 that runs 108
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.

No tire kicker here. Fully capable of writing a check for the boat but would be kind of foolish to agree to any price without actually knowing how the boat performs. I have approached you 3 times to put the boat in the water and you always have some kind of silly excuse. When I inquired about your boat at Cigarette they tried to direct me towards anoter 42X from a customer that is ordering another Cigarrette. Go ahead and continue paying juice on a depreciating asset and just maybe someday you will wake up to realize you are the dreamer! Keep your boat I am not going to beg you to buy it!

Somebody is a little too sensitive because nowhere in my post did I reference your boat or your name! Anyway good luck finding a buyer that is capable of actually writing the check. If you would take $475k for the boat and you had an offer of $460k that you alledgedly turned down lets see at about $5000 per month between insurance and a boat payment how many months will you have to keep the boat before you realize that was a good offer. Let me answer that for you, 3.

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.

....Yeah, but he wants a boat that'll last more than one season before falling apart!!!! Hey...don't shoot the messenger here, I remember hearing/seeing Love Muscle (whom I don't personally know) say it live, on TV while they were being interviewed! Oopse!
