Alright thanks. Just was not sure as the last one I seen close to me in great shape sold for (asking $15,400) before I could even get to it

I will keep a eye out,

I'm on phone so can't link it right now, check out Rochester NY Craigslist

I am in Holland and had a 223. It was a great boat and could run lake Michigan comfortably most of the time. I towed with a 4runner 5K towing capacity with no issues, very easy in and out at the ramp and fits easy in the driveway. 242 is a LOT more boat. I think you will be happier all around with the 223.

the 89 brochure has the 223 at 3750 lbs and the 242 at 4150

Well the 223 that I went to look at is still for sale... he is now at 9k. I tried to offer 8k again and he won't go that low yet. I'll put up more pics of it. Could probably get it for 8500. Cuddy is worse then the 242 but the vinal is better in the 223 but no perfect either...

I wish I lived closer to NY. Got a nice 223 and 242 haha. I'm hoping to find something In the michigan\indiana\ohio\Chicago line. Something I can do in 1 day by myself.

It's not that far,

That is rough, I would pass. Lots of boats will come on the market soon with winter coming. Clean Formulas pop up regularly for fair prices but they go quick so you have to be ready.

Thanks. I'll keep looking. I am in no rush as their is not much boating time left. Wish I could travel a ways but working 6 days a week only leaves me with a solid day to get one and come back.
