Does anyone know how much $$$ the new 90 MPH? 52ft Cigarette with the 6-500HP Mercs totaling 3000hp is?

Is this real? What planet am I on? This is amazing. I really gotta get a ride it that. Wow

Dry Weight: 29,000 lbs. Wow!
Draft: 36" at Full Load. Not Bad!
Deadrise at Transom: 24 degrees. Crusher!
Beam: 14′ Yes!
Fuel Capacity: 880 gallons. Yikes!

Hmmm...Gonna take a fast run down to Marathon this weekend. Plan to top off tonight in Ft Lauderdale.

Need about 500 Gallons @4.80 Gallon = $2400 Top off. Got an account at the dock. I'll put it on my Tab No problem. I'll be back for more on Sunday. I love our country. This boat is very cool!

Scott, can you believe ,half a million in Motors and rigging alone. Years ago when I wrote out the check for $14,000 for my pro max 300 I thought that was crazy money. Can you imagine how long it would take to pump that much gas into that beautiful cigarette, Frank

I see they are still putting off the twin pinion lower units with trans in the mid

How will a re rig on on 10-15yrs old boat be looking in a few years re cost of 2nd hand boat and cost of new engines?

It will look really expensive... That new 52 can be over 3M depending on options. Pretty crazy when you consider the R.E. you can buy for the same money. The guys that are buying these boats are not in a situation that they are counting pennies, thats for sure. We ran into a guy from Nebraska on the poker run Friday that keeps 8 boats at LOTO and 3 in Ft. Lauderdale. He keeps them in storage at LOTO for $600 a month each. When he has them put in the water and taken to his house its another $2500.00 then $2500.00 to have them picked up and put away. We were talking and he was in town for 4 days over the weekend "he only planned to use 3 of them while he was here unless something broke". Different levels for all.

Stay tuned the game isn't over....however if you think things are expensive now then you will surely have another sticker shock coming in the future.
