So I called MarineMax where I purchased by 195 HOI originally and requested a trade in price and to send over some info on the 255's. Besides low balling the hell out of the boat, Low 20's. They said the 255's go up into the the low to mid 90k range for a nicely equipped HOI model, I almost choked...... Correct me if I'm wrong, but cant you get a nicely equipped worry free 242 in the mid 70's? What the hell is scarab thinking with this price range?

They are trying to gouge you bud. . . . . Boat show prices are around the corner.

Although IMO, Scarab has some of the nicest interiors. I don't think I want to pay for a boat to sit in the shop more then I get to enjoy it. I may start looking into the Yamaha's.

@Elio195HOI That 242 limited S is calling your name man. Dont even look back.

Head over to Clearwater and Cycle Springs. They will take care of you. Well worth the trip.
