Cig Question - 42 Tiger
 

This beautiful 42 Tiger was at Brown's Bar yesterday on Lake St. Clair. When my friend asked how much that boat would cost I said it depends on the power but that this one is probably around a mil. When I look them up I find 20 year models underpowered with 500s for under $200,000. Is this model still made? It sure looked new. I'm intrigued by this boat. Any input would be appreciated! This boat certainly didn't look underpowered. It is based out of Port Huron, Michigan. (And here's my little Donzi at the dock:))

kind of hard to tell at the water line but appears to be an older flat bottom none stepped Tiger, pre 2000 or so........nice looking boat, and no Cig doesn't make the Tiger any more

EDIT: just a guess but its probably around 100-150k range depending on several things

Looks like a nice restored Tiger. New paint, dash upgrades, interior, etc. Looks to have IMCO drives. Ken nailed it - this exact boat 100-150 in this market. New was probably 400k in 99/00 when Cig was pumpin' this model out. New 42X (new version of this boat) runs 7-800k.

Wonder what the original paint was on this Tiger.

Looks like this 38 gun was the paint inspiration. I dig it!!

Its a similar paint job to nasty habit, the 42x with 6's, that one is more than likely a 575 Xr boat... depending on how well they are taken care of you can find them out there from 75k to mine at 325K obo, but if you buy the 75k one, youll be at the asking price of mine in no time.

Well thanks for my Cigarette lesson! It sure looked like a modern boat to me other than the non-staggered engines and that is a hell of a lot of boat to have for only $200,000 or less but I think it would be a real dog with 500s. Nasty Habit looks even better than the one I asked about.

actually that one has scx's, so it may have bigger engines. normally the 575 TS versions had the scoops on the hatch and the 500 efi versions had a flat hatch like mine...

You can buy mine in that range and I'll go buy Rare Breed and "surprise" my wife!! I haven't spent as much on mine as Rob has!!!!!

Actually, these days none of my poor decision making surprises her.....

Cool Donzi - I have a '78 O/B 16'?.............

Our rig can be purchased for $1M…

:party-smiley-004:

Yep, everything is for sale... I figured that this was a new boat with big power hence the 1 mil cost guess. I'd love to drive a boat that big. I suppose that if 500s can maybe get it up to 70 then that's not too bad.

Twin step tigers were made from 2001-2004
42x from 2004 to ?? As center consoles took over after the recession. If there are newer ones out around it won't be many. Twin step tigers and 42x's are starting to climb in value. If you get one with upgrades you're looking at 150-200k.

If you're ever in SE Virginia, we can go for a spin on mine and you can drive!

I saw that the other day. Gorgeous - just $350k over my budget....

That's almost worth taking a road trip for! I appreciate the offer but don't see Virginia in my near future. The biggest performance boat I've ridden in is an original Fountain Executioner (38'?).

[QUOTE=thirdchildhood;4796476]so thats 35'.... :lolhit::evilb:

[QUOTE=offshoredrillin;4796522]I know, lol. And when he took us out on the Detroit River and said now you can tell everyone you've gone 70 in a boat I'm pretty sure it was more like 65 but we still had a blast and it was cool of our boss to invite a few of us out on his then new Fountain Executioner with 454s!

Close But No Cigar
 

Thanks for the great pictures of the boat. We own that 2004 42 Tiger and have for the past 8 years. The boat is original paint and interior. It is a twin step boat. It was painted by TAOD in 2004 and hasn’t been touched since, besides polish and wax. The interior and dash are all original. It was a 575/XR boat from new and the previous owner added SCX’s and made the 575’s 790 hp. It currently has Tyler Crockett built 540’s with 4L Whipples to the tune of 950 hp. It’ll run 104-105 most every day. The boat has always lived in Port Huron.

Gorgeous!

She looked great at Boyne Thunder this past weekend Cigarette brethren! :champs:

I knew I seen this one before. Stumbled across this hanging in my parents place..

damn. Couldn’t tell
it was a TS. Awesome ride, absolutely beautiful and great set up!!

Jack, I gotta say, I just love the fact your parents have a cigarette poster hanging in their house! Lol

the wow 46, later became american badass, did that finally sell?

Tom redid it to the ABA. Buddy I know was looking to buy it from the guy that had it for sale for a long time but one of the motors was hurt so he passed and ended up buying the 46 Kleitz had. I saw the survey, it needed some TLC but wasn't horrible. Could have been bought for a good price. I do believe the owner then had the hurt motor rebuilt. Don't know if it ever sold though.

ABA was local, possibly still is, local to me for a few years, and for sale during some of that time. Havent seen it on the owners lift in about a year or so. Never got on top of it, but from pretty close, was/is a good looking ride.

That's a great picture of our 42, thanks. If you look closely at the last picture you can clearly see that the 42 Tiger has black #6's on it and not the Bravo XR's that were purchased with it. I can tell from the engine compartment that at one point there were also different motor mounts in place. I wonder if anyone knows what motors were once in the boat and what it was used for, I assume testing. Below is a picture of our boat also from testing but it seems to have silver #6's on it this time. It is possible that either the picture with the black #6's or silver #6's is a different boat but there is a good chance that it is the same. Does anyone know anything more?
