I'm not so worried about height as I am planning for a vehicle lift so vertically won't be an issue.

Thank you for this

Whilel I do agree with you. the problem is, I can't add on to the land I have to work with lol that's going to ultimately be the restriction

I am aware every setup won't be exactly the same I was just trying to get a general reference point but I hear what your saying, so a general rule is a trailer adds about 5 or 6 ft onto the boat length? This helps, thanks.

Hello all, I am in the planning stages of building a garage and am trying to future proof the build as best I can I know sometime in the future we will be buying a 240 sundeck or something comparable in size. My question is for anyone who currently has a 240. What is the overall length from the...

Ok I'll add this to the list of things to get done before warm weather hits. Thanks all for the quick replies much appreciated!

Hello all. I just bought this boat over Thanksgiving week 2021. Since then I've been working on updating some maintenance issues and while working on it today I saw this. It's a fairly deep chip in the hull on the bottom of the boat. It's a 2004 200 select. The location of this is about directly...

Yea I saw that and wasn't sure if that's water or just discoloration and dirt. He said it's the later but I will keep an eye on that when I go see it and take it on the water. I will keep an eye on and inquire about the bearings also thank you

I got him to send me some pictures of the engine compartment. Anything look troublesome? He said it's dusty from being in storage for a bit.

Thank you so much for this reply. I appreciate the time you took to type all that out and I will be taking this with me to look at it for sure. I feel a little in over my head with this purchase as I just like to know more about what I'm buying then I feel I do with this right now. It's not for...

I appreciate that but going back to my tow vehicle unfortunately something like that is out of the question.

Update: so I think I may have found a real possible contender. It's a 2004 200 select with the 5.0 mpi. Without really talking to him to much he said he would go down to $16,500. From pictures alone it appears to be in really good shape inside and out and he claims maintenance has been done...

I'm in southwest VA, you make a good point because the jet boats in my area do seem to stick around on the sale pages.

Ok I'll look into that thanks. I had read from a few different outlets to stay away from jetboats that have some age on them because they are not so good as they get older so I had dismissed them before but I know there are a few for sale in my area so I'll look into them.
