@kthrash I met a local guy with a 2011 AR240 a couple years ago prior to me buying my boat. We exchanged #'s incase I wanted a test ride. He randomly texted me last Friday telling me it was time to sell the boat and to let him know if I knew of anyone looking. It is not posted anywhere yet. I have a picture I snapped of it and will try to post it if I can find it. It is all black with the red graphics.

He has not even taken it out of storage this year and only used it twice last season. 50 hours. PM me if you want his cell. I have no clue what he is asking but it may be worth a shot!

It looks like Dayton just missed your 700 mile limit, but it could be worth an extra 25 miles!

after talking to the guy about teh 2012 in NC.. I think it has spent a lot of time in the sun uncovered.. he says the vinyl is faded and the speakers are dry rotted.. Speakers are cheap, Vinyl is not..

Bummer. Sun damage is my fear with everything. I use sun shades in my car obsessively. Can't wait to build a tall header garage to just back into easily. Good luck with the search. Not many jets here in Augusta, but I've got my eyes open.

Did you see that JetBoatPilot is selling their highly upgraded 2015 AR240? It is tempting!

I understand. I have been thinking about whether or not I should pay cash for it. But if I did I would have to install a fridge and plotter ASAP. Then I would need a VHF, trim tabs, a second bilge pump, etc before Bimini 2016.

Nice boat (yes I am biased HA). We love ours! Did you get it for < $30K as you had wanted? If so that seems like a great deal.

I agree with what @billyb said. I felt the same that a great trip for you got derailed. Glad you found this boat and got a great deal on it. Good for you.
