True haha, that boat does run well though.

We were cruising around 100 with him right here. You can see the Cig in the distance.

The 50ss runs about 120 with 1350's. I'd like to see how it runs with 1650's ;)

Total hijack if this thread but what's your boat look like? Big fan of NT

Here's some pics:

Back to the Cigs now lol

Recognize it now. Beautiful.

Ok, back to cigs.

Just for the record - I do believe the first 46 rough rider was "Depth Charge". Straight bottom full cabin. There was only a couple straight bottom 46's built.

Does anybody have the Powerboat Magazine article of the 46? I remember reading it, i wanna say in the mid or late 90's? Boat was yellow and had triple Hawk 1000's.

and there was the all black one that had the leopard wrap on it that Sam claimed was his at one point, lol :rolleyes:

Hahaha. I remember that!

That wrap was hideous.

Yes, the boat is at LOTO. We've had it at PBC for a couple years now. PBC has that one, AMerican Bad Ass, Strip Poker, and the blue and orange one w/1350's.

The blue and orange one just had a full rebuild done by Mercury. We just got the motors back last week, they will be going back in soon. That is my favorite 46 ever!! Rode in it several times with the first owner. American Bad Ass is in great shape still, beautiful boat, the motors idle and run great. We ran with him several times last year. He owned a couple 42's before it. Strip Poker has had the interior redone, it looks nice. The boat offshoredrillin is asking about is a beautiful boat and in great shape also.

The new 50 looks beautiful and has gotta be king Cig! Can't wait to see it, should be at the shop soon.
