    SOLD 2016 Yamaha 242 Limited S E-Series

    About 2k was taken off. Not sure what it would cost to re-install. I don’t care for the big bimini so I didn’t inquire what it would be if I wanted to switch back.

    SOLD 2016 Yamaha 242 Limited S E-Series

    I added sea deck only to some corners and the landing step when entering the boat. Also lined the anchor locker for protection. Other than that, nothing has been done.

    22 Inch wheels on tow vehicle

    I have 22's on my Yukon Denali. No issues towing. If your concerned about 22's, the Yukon SL and SLT's do come standard with 20's (if I'm not mistaken). I am sure you can just ask for them. The BF Goodrich tires are a whole different topic. :)

    Does anyone use the newer explorers to tow a 24ft jetboat

    I will tell you I had a 2016 Explorer Platinum. The vehicle has enough power, stopping is fine however I will tell you I did it for 3 months and traded to a full size SUV. My problem was I bought the car before the boat. I also, have my boat on a lift so towing was limited. Can it be done...

    Possible move to California

    Thank you, I did read the posts about registering. It appears we need to have some tenacity and make sure they understand its a jet boat as Jet Ski's do not apply to the catalytic converters. But, I think the 2016's may already be 50 state approved.
