Agree with the above! I have the same setup and you do need both bimini tops for the full camper enclosure.
Great to see you guys at Sand Island this weekend. What are the odds that we anchor right next to you? Very nice to meet you. Exciting stuff later...on Sunday, a Sundancer 380 ran over my bow anchor line and severed it after hitting our bow rail. Sigh. Anchor shopping now. :smt013

I live in Pensacola also! I've got an '04 but it looks like you have a pretty standard layout in your bilge (I agree, its a bit dirty in there). Is that sea grass in there? I hope the engine bay didn't get flooded. Did he forget to put the bilge plug in one time?

Hmm....depends I suppose. New or used? How many hours on the engine? Does it come with a trailer? I spoke to a guy at my marina last weekend who had a 2010 240 and he got it with the trailer for around 60K (I vaguely recall).
