Question 46 Rough Rider???

How fast will a 46 Cig with Merc 1075's go??? I have never been in one... How does it drive compared to a 38 TS Gun??? I realize it is a Much Bigger boat and I would like some feedback on how it handles??? Around docks and at speed??? Anyone have a feel for the resale on this boat???? If I was thinking about purchasing one is there anything special I should know about????

You need to ask Joe that question, he's had both.

Why not a 42 X?
That would be a little bit of a closer comparison... 42' X to 46' RR

I just spoke with Mike. He had a 38 T/S and that is the only Cigarette he has owned. He is thinking about a R/R.

Have you thought about a triple 46?? I know someone who has run both and he likes the triple boat better. The 46 with 6's only likes to run fast. You cant really cruise at lower speeds like in a Top Gun. The triple 525 boat wont run as fast but you can cruise all around at different speeds and have reliability. Just a thought. I have only been on a 46 with 6's though.

I would NEVER want to own a boat with Bravo's after owning one with #6's. Specially three of them.

The "only like running fast" statements comes from someone that can not trim a boat and has not enough seat time or capacity driving a RR.

This 46 hasn't blown a bravo yet. Believe me this guy knows how to run a boat and especially Cigarettes. Thats his opinon of the #6 boats. How do you think the #6 46's handle compared to the triple bravo ones??

Joe Pandek...He just bought that new blue 39...He goes by "Joe" on the boards. He floats around here from time to time. Drop him a PM...He's explained the differences to me before but it'd just be better to hear it from the horses mouth....Nothing wrong with a 46 for sure but it is a LOT bigger.
