Hello,

New owner/member from Troy, MO. Replaced our old boat (1990 Conquest 1800 4.3 Cobra) with a 2017 AR240 from St. Charles Boat & Motor. Can't wait for boating season!

Started looking last season after selling our old boat. Went to the Grafton Boat Show last season and put a deposit on this boat later that week. The held the boat for me till the St. Louis Boat show so I could take advantage of any promotions. Closed on it this week. Terry/Jerry have been great to work with.

Congrats and welcome! Do you have any mods planned? First thing I had to do was find a garbage can to fit behind the bungee cords next to the helm seat!
 
I have the fins from Will to install once I bring the boat home in April. Bought the fins in the last Group Buy. Also planning on saving for Seadeck for the cock pit, but will have to wait till September for the next Group Buy. Nothing beyond that so far. In all the years boating we always just took a garbage bag with us on the boat, never really thought about a small garbage can.

Now just have to get a tool kit together to keep on the boat.
 
Welcome Patrick congrats on the beautiful boat hope to see you out on the river ! We do a spring cruise up to Mel's you will have to join us.
 
Beautiful boat....love the color! And Welcome!

Wow congrats!
You must be one the lucky few! - those blue AR240s went flying off of the floor ay St. Charles Boat and Motor in nanoseconds, I'm told. You must have pre-purchased?

Put a deposit down right after the Grafton Boat Show. I was sold after the demo ride. I definitely got the ball rolling for their sales of that model.
 
Terry told me this week they sold all the Blue AR240s they were allotted by Yamaha.
 
Welcome and congrats on the new boat. She's a beauty.
 
Welcome Aboard and congratulations!
 
Sweet boat !!! Do you boat in the Alton pool ? A lot of us meet up on the sand bar out there !!!
 
Man that's a sharp looking boat! Love the blue. Welcome aboard!
