Tim,
Did they dump the 46' Rough Rider in the water today? Saw a black Dually making a right on Atlantic Blvd with a BIG blue empty Myco trailer.

In any case, it seems like big power and speedies are rare in a Gun.

I'd like to hear some accurate feedback on this as well. Thanks.

The boat with the Sterling 900's dockrocker is talking about was my 04 TG. The boat ran absolutely perfect. The was no balance issue or did it do anything bizzare. I traded the boat back into National Marine only because Cigarette had received 6 pairs of the new 1075s and I just had to have those motors in a new 42X. I am a EFI supporter and decided the 1075s was my best option. The TG was an absolute hot rod / bad ass boat.

I am a Cig novice so please excuse my ignorance. What is the difference between a 2004 42 X and a 42 XP? How do the XP's seem to handle with 900's and 6's? Thanks.

I also think that alot of guys looking to go/use big power are looking past the 38 and just going with the 42. The trend seems to be that the 42 is now about equal to what the 38 use to be as far as desireability is concerned, so that may explain less 38's with big power being produced. It looks to be the same trend with Outerlimits as well.
