Anyone on the board own a 420..???
 
I would just like to ask a few questions about the boat...

Curious about the tripples,,,, how everything holds up..

Also ride and just general satisfaction of the boat.. :cool:

Thank you for the input...

Any issues with the gen or AC?? Just looking for any incite before I really start to look.. I guess we are leaning toward the offshore stylings with the cruiser amenities... Without the Black Thunder price... :eek:

It seems they made that boat for quite sometime then changing to the 442...

Actually we are....

Its kind of all a mute point unless we can do something with our slip....

We are trying to get as much wave crushing ability as we can... :eek:

We just want a family friendly (huge) boat. Not really looking to do any overnighting but just have the ability to turn on the AC let our son watch some Power Rangers while Dr. SoS and I enjoy the water..

I have both a 1993 38 Special and 2003 442. Both have 496 HO's and I like both boats. The 38 is for sale. I have taken both boats to the Bahamas and run both in Poker Runs. The 442 definitely has more room and rides better. Both run about the same speed.

Thank you for the offer,,, but we are still in research mode... We have to do something with our slip or location of storage before we can do anything...

Actually there is a 420 ES locally with less than 200 hours... :eek:

Look on e-bay. There is a 40 Outlaw with trip HP500's on wipples, no reserve.

I must have missed that one... but the only reason I am looking at trips now is because of the sheer weight of the boat.. We have the 40 ol on our list but only with twins... (Ins reasons) and I have been told there are only a couple that were fitted with generators... And that seems to be a must... :eek:
