I know 1075 vs 850 but it's close

that 42X was talked about in this thread, it seems way overpriced

I agree m, but what's the general thought about difference? It seems like there are a lot of 46's for sale compared to 42's when you take into consideration how many less 46 were built. I've also heard of a couple 42 owners moving to a 46 then going back to the 42 because it is a better overall boat. Any truth to this?

I don't think the 4' brings more money. I think it is the drive train difference, 6's vs. Bravo or NXT and engine choice. Even the 39 compared to the 42X prices are close. Even on a 38 vs. 42 Tiger prices are pretty comparable. Length is length and it helps in rough water but trailering and paying for docking the 38 is everones favorite choice.

Agreed, this is why I went with the 38 instead of the 46....:whistle::whistle:

I've owned a 42 and 46.

The 46 per cigarette is their most efficient hull. Guys going from the 39 go to a 46 if they're staying with cig. The 42 is not like a guy buying a 39 or 46. They usually buy a 42 because of price being lower. Just my 2 cents.

Are you saying that if I have a 42, it is not worth upgrading? Youve owned both so your input means a lot. How about HP for HP, is the 46 just as fast?

If I were to buy another cigarette. It would be a 46, it was just a great all around boat. With 1100's. That's an honest 115mph boat.

If i buy another Cigarette, it will be a 50' because i would have hit the powerball & going to blow it all before my kids knock me off! ;)

Okay I am sold! Anyone want to buy a nice 42? With the limited amount of 46's I need to get out there ahead of Adam(302Sport)

There's actually a lot of 46's out there compared to 42's when you take into consideration how many fewer have been built. I love the theme 46's painted by TAOD. Frank, a TAOD 46 Ciggy is the way to go......

Here we go time for Kevin to buy franks 42 so I can have my 38 :evilb:

Whoa whoa who's buying my 42???? Scot???

I like this it's a great idea!

:ernaehrung004: Well we all know he secretly wants "1". He just needs to bite the bullet and do it. I know his girlfriend is all for it.

Wait maybe it's time for a new thread...........:rolleyes:

Yup it was time:http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/n...ml#post3779350

Like Brace I've had both. Actually I've had 2 different 42s; one X and one Tiger as well as 2 different 46s. The Tiger doesn't get into this discussion.

The 46 is just an incredible boat and extremely smooth, balanced and efficient. It is noticeably different than a 42. That does not mean the 42 is not a great hull as well. I have not been on both with comparable power. I had 700s/NXTs in the 42 and its hard to beat that combination package.....but it can be beat by the 46 with 6s/8s and 1075/1350s. Absolutely no discussion between 1075s vs 1350s. The 8s/1350s package is unbelievable to say the least. You just can't imagine until you've ridden the boat; then you will understand perfectly. Like Ferris Bueller said, "if you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up".

I have drove the 50' on a nice trip to Key Largo and didn't notice the length that much while cruising versus the 46. It was noticeable to me while docking and I did notice the difference in the cockpit as that is where they added 2 of the additional feet.

:drink:

Jesus - that is quite a collection of boats owned/driven. :eekdrop:
