SOLD SOLD: 2009 Yamaha 212x for sale, $24,500.00: NC/VA region

Don't let buying this 212 stop you, just because you will have a rough Bimini outing. Yes, it will be rough as hell. My 230 almost killed us just getting out of the inlet in Ocean City into the Atlantic when we went out to watch the air show. Rough ride in a 212, rough ride in a 230. On another point, when I was looking to buy, I was going to snatch up the first 230 or 212 that popped up which met my demands. I did not think the 212 interior was much different than the 230 interior, at all. In fact, I just did not notice the difference. Close this deal and ship it.

I have two 212's and one 230 all around price range, each with some added extras and each with some additions and mods I'll add. So some wiggle room to decide which is right. I know each will be rough, but if one is safer than the other and will be better in the long run it's what I'll go with. Somewhat have the luxury of choice

pricing a boat appears fairly fluid between the NADA and other sites. I believe in OEM for a price set. Anything the owner adds is basically for him, may help in the attractiveness of the boat, but isnt a price enhancer..example is the tinted windows, seadeck or stereo. that said..this is what i found: comments welcome/encouraged.

she is a sweetheart ! kids are grown, we don't do watersports anymore...and based on the size of our lake a pontoon is plenty..
thanks everyone !

NADA includes the value of the trailer in the price of the boat...not that I’d put much faith in their numbers. They use straight line depreciation for their boat values vs actual sales data.

@agannole93 I bought our 240 with the sole purpose of having more of a boat for Bimini.
that being said if my boat were to get totaled tomorrow I will not necessarily replace it with a 240.

I would get the boat that fits your every day needs best. I cannot imagine a situation in which you will be willing to cross on 240, but aboard on a 210.
It will be a bit rougher on the 210, but once you get there you tent to forget about the crossing. Knowing what I know today, I would not make the 240 a requirement because of once a year Bimini trip.
