wtb formula 242ls, NY
 

Looking for a nice late 80's 242, 454 or twin 350. In upstate NY but will travel for the right boat. Thanks!!

Contact user shekmark he might have exactly what your looking for. Here is a link with some pics http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/f...thread-15.html

I saw his he had posted it on another thread of mine. I'm going to look at a 242 with a 454 tomorrow and a 242 with twins on Sunday.

My old 85 242LS (w/ bolsters and twins) is for sale in NH. PM me with email and I'll send you the current owner's email address.

My buddy has a real clean one with a afr headed 468. Runs real well dyno'd 500hp with paperwork.

there is a nice one listed on loto craigs if your willing to travel,

Got in contact with him thank you! He is a little over my budget for a 242 but nice boat.

Loto Craigslist?

Yup, there's also a nice one on Cleve Craig,

Which one is Loto?

Lake of the Ozarks in MO

I have a 1988 242LS that has had a lot of upgrades like paint, motor, and transom. The boat is red, white, and black. No bottom paint. Good trailer as well. It is located in MA. Email me at [email protected] if interested. I can send you some pictures.

Heres the one in cleve, cpl g's to high but looks very nice only drawback is the 454/alpha, go easy and u will be fine, never seen another 242 with that imron in yellow, very sharp

The only yellow one iv seen in Cleveland that's yellow is a 206

Weren't you looking at the 242sr1 twin?
I may be a glutton for punishment but if the interior was raggy and all the real boat stuff was all in good order motors, fiberglass condition all the main stuff, i would talk him/her down to their limit bring it home work on it and have a really cool very hard to find boat that you recrated that anybody would like to own. If you buy right and shop around you can do a lot with 3 grand.
Just my .02

Look at Cleve Craig's, I thought I linked it earlier from the PC, guess I forgot, I'll do it tomorrow

I wish it was a Sr1 but it was just a regular 86 242ls with twins and the regular clear flat glass. It looked rough overall and I'm no boat expert so I never went as far as testing compression or getting someone to look at the hull. Did they ever make a 242 with twins and the curved windshield?

Nice setup! Little more than I want to spend though

Thanks! Around here there are a couple for sale but none this clean. The 502 and bolsters also set it apart.

Yes a 242 with bolsters and a 502 don't come around all the time and looks to be in very nice condition, good luck with the sale.

Thanks masi242!
