10 Years Old This Week

11 years on mine with no issues at all....but the flurry of stuck injectors/ECU issues we had there for a while made me nervous. I'm beginning to get a SERIOUS itch for a new boat, but like others have said....I have one now that runs great....do I really NEED all the new stuff....no....but man I do really WANT:
  1. A quieter boat
  2. Hinged seats
  3. Drive by wire throttles/gates
  4. More room in the bow in particular
  5. Changing room storage
  6. A tower
  7. A full coverage bimini
  8. Ballast would be nice
Pretty sure this describes a 242X! LOL
Sounds like a 242 to me:winkingthumbsup"
