Hey waterluvr! I may have what you're looking for. I have a '90 242LS with a low-hour custom motor (615HP) and the drive to handle it. I am stepping up to a larger boat. Better yet, I'm in the Nashville area. I'll check back to see if you're interested.

That's code speak for lots of bumps and bruises.

It's either in "very good shape" or it's not.

ChewyMalone,
I was really looking for stock power but would definitely entertain looking at some photos.
Thanks
Christopher

The power plant is the picture in my avatar. It's naturally aspirated and built with quality parts. I also have a Bravo X drive with Imco XR lower on the boat. It's quite a step up from the stock power (and much more fun). I will be listing it next week.

I will look for your listing. Is it going on BoatTrader.com?

I haven't listed yet because I need to take some better pics this weekend. Here's a little about it...

1990 Formula 242LS, 615 HP motor built in 2007 by White Performance (Kingsport,TN), Bravo X upper and Imco XR lower installed 2008, new upholstery in 2005, dropdown bolsters,Extreme Marine swim platform, GPS speedo, CD w/amp and sub, Eagle trailer.

Top speed I've seen on GPS is 70.1MPH. It will cruise effortlessly all day at 50-55MPH.

I originally had the 454 mag (365HP) motor. The top speed I saw on GPS was 54.5MPH and it was a struggle to get it to run 50MPH with a few people and a load of fuel.

Here's my number if you want to see the boat 615-477-3540. Or you can give me your e-mail and I'll send some pics.
