Its Official!! Picking up new boat!

[jcyamaharider]

We are officially the owners of a new 2017 242X in black. I can't wait to see what kind of wake we are going to be able to pump out of this thing. We will be picking it up this Friday in Michigan. I have mods planned already but will have to wait until the winter. Super excited to say the least!!!

Thanks Josh!!

So since we are letting most of the items go with the AR230 we have to rebuy basic things like bumpers, docking lines, anchor, I guess the best place is Amazon?

Can't wait until Shelbyville next year to hitch a ride!!!

Congratulations!

What made you go all the way to MI? color, price, used?

 

[jcyamaharider]

Funny thing, We are actually going up there for vacation anyways to see my sister, combine that with this was the last black 242X they had and they marked it down 7800 bucks to make room for 2018 boats it was a no brainer. This one is brand new.

There wasn't a single new or used 242X in Missouri that I could find around that price.

I like to use Amazon unless West Marine has a sale.

If you want white Walmart has good deals on fenders and dock lines. They also have the best deal on flare guns.

Going black bumpers and red dock lines. Unless there is a way to fill the red in with orange........Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I will just stick with red, it matches my truck.

Did you say orange?

I use Overton's quite a bit. Seems they always have coupon codes or sales going.

I've also used Wholesale Marine on something's.

Nothing like that new boat smell. Or is it the dead fish in the water? Congrats

Beautiful, Love that black! Congrats on quick sale and purchase! (We wouldn't want you have to select "boatless" on your profile. Lol)

Might be giving @robert843 a run for his money on quick turn arounds, as I recall.

 

[jcyamaharider]

Thanks everyone, I can't wait to get out on it!! I just might have to talk the wife into sharing the drive so we can stay in Lansing for an early pick up.

 

[jcyamahariders wife]

Well he actually has to let me drive for starters !

Something about me speeding or whatever
