hello
 

Hi all , i have just become the proud owner of 91 242ls fitted with a new 454 mag . This weekend will be my first proper run in it (can't wait). The only downsides are that my boat lives 120 miles away and fuel cost's about 8 dollars a gallon here in the uk.

Re: hello
 

Congrats and welcome to OSO. 242'S are a sweet ride. Enjoy your new boat.

Re: hello
 

Hey Guys,

I came across this 242 in Aqaba, Jordan earlier in the year.

Can anyone spot the mistake?

Re: hello
 

424 on the port side

Re: hello
 

I meant starboard... TTT :D

Re: hello
 

Ummm,
1. No canvas on the bimini
2. A Formula kept in the water WITHOUT bottom paint
3. Several "docking" booboo's
4. Oh yeah..."424" instead of "242"! :drink:

Re: hello
 

Well done Guys, It also had 424 emblazoned across the swim platform!!

What amazed me was the fact that the 424 on the starboard side is positioned next to the factory 242 decal!!

I guess his local hardware store was short on 2's that day. :D

Formula1, 10 out of 10 for the extreme perception, :D its a shame there are no prizes for this one buddy.

Re: hello
 

I had a good first weekend with my boat .
we even had calm sea and sunshine which is a rare combination for the uk.
