    252SD CONNEXT SCREEN

    2023 252SE. Having same issues. The system will reboot while in float mode, at random intervals, no warnings no error codes etc. We also had it reboot while we were underway doing about 25 miles an hour. Is the fix to have the dealer order a new head unit or is there something else?

    Zup Do More v You Got This board?

    How's your experience with the Stimmel? We have a Zup 2.0 board and love it, but find it doesn't track well in the water when riding like a wakeboard. It washes out easily and makes it difficult to do much but straight-line or gradual turns. Would like something that offers better bite into...

    Monster Tower rack 2018 Limited SE

    I returned mine for OEM 242x rack. No regrets. 6 months and no issues. It's pricey but worth it IMO.

    The official "What did you do to your jet boat today" thread.

    I Just used Rejex for first time in my 242 (slate blue) and I am very impressed with it! After several hours on muddy lake in hot TX it wiped down super easy and still felt baby smooth freshly washed! Would definitely recommend!

    Monster Tower rack 2018 Limited SE

    I've determined that I will be returning the Monster Tower rack. I've had a hard time getting the boards to remain parallel to the boat and water. I have tightened all the bolts and nuts as much as possible and still I cannot keep the boards from rotating. Monster Towers has excellent...

    Monster Tower rack 2018 Limited SE

    The Monster tower clamp did come with the appropriately sized collar insert. They machine their collar diameters to fit a 2.5" OD tower, but offer the collar adapters to fit smaller diameter tubes. I was thinking that the collar would be made of nylon or a hardened rubber - I was disappointed...

    Monster Tower rack 2018 Limited SE

    Update - took out the boat this weekend and loaded it up with the Zup 2.0 and wakeboard. I was pleased to observe that the rack had 0 issues securing the boards with very little free play. We had crosswinds, chop and a few 40+ mph sprints and the rack never wavered. I will be keeping the...

    Monster Tower rack 2018 Limited SE

    For now I will be keeping them, I have my doubts as there are a lot of bolts that are holding it together I'm not sure how it will hold up on chop. They make an adapter color for the tower tube the size is 2 3/8 in. but I don't like is that it is made of aluminum they do not offer a nylon or...

    Monster Tower rack 2018 Limited SE

    Is anyone using a monster tower surf/wake rack on their 2018 242 Limited SE? I recently purchased one and have been unable to mount it so that the boards have adequate clearance and appropriate angle when deployed outside and inside of the boat. It seems that I can only find a balance on one...

    2019 Release coming soon!

    We had similar requirements and thought processes. We pulled trigger on 242 Limited SE and have no regrets! Enjoy!!

    242x, I have a new detached garage, going to raise the header and park inside

    My garage door is 10'3" and I still have to have my wife manually articulate the bimini top to get the naviagtion light to clear the door (tower folded down). My guess is that you would want 10'6" to get in and out without manually working the bimini. Once I get past the door I have 12'...

    Ltd SE vs X

    It is a PITA to have to stop, fold down tower and have someone stand in boat to manuever the bimini while I back the boat in. The whole process is reversed when taking the boat out of the stall. Don't recommend it, I miss the days of being able to pull the boat out / put it away on my own...

    Ltd SE vs X

    I have a 10'3" door and I barely get my 2018 SE to fit with the tower folded down and manually articulating the Bimini to clear the top of the door. I do not see how it would be possible to fit through a 9' door; sorry to be bearer of bad nees. :depressed:
