A 242 with low black windshield and maybe 2 supercharged motors. Yeah it would be a gas hog but fun .20150723_172702.jpg

They should make a mini cigarette version compete with low windshield, enclosed bow with a berth and of course twin SVHO engines mated with 160mm pumps! Could be a fun Bahama rum runner lol

With so many different versions of the 242 seems like there would be room for a SS.

Towers seem a bit taller on the low profile windshield though...

But if you do get a tower... just go straight to the matching Bimini... I don't even have a new picture!
