I am listing my boat for sale.

Not wanting to however I am being relocated and it doesn't work for us at this time.

So...

$48,000 or B/O
2016
242 Limited S E-Series
Hours: approximately 18hrs (boat is in storage without access at this time)

Used in fresh water only

It is an E-Series however when I bought it I had the dealer change the tower as I didn't like to large bimini.

Any mods done to it? Seadek, speakers? Curious if anything extra was added or done. Thanks

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.

Any idea what the cost would be to get the correct tower back again and have solar panels connected into the batteries? How much was taken off at the point of sale to remove all of that?

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.

It's a lot I can't remember but the exact amount but @swatski explored this and I think the tower was some crazy number like 8K-12K range.

Seriously, I'd have been all over this last fall. Especially since the one thing I really didnt love about the E-Series was the giant bimini.

In this 2016 mode year what features did the E series have over 242 limited S non E series? I thought the solar panel roof and huge Bimini was the only big main difference.

Electronic throttles is one of the biggest upgrades.

If it had original tower it would be sold. Do you live close to the original dealer you bought it from? If so, see if they still have that tower and or a price to put one on
