They are all 8' beam, little differences here and there. The 292 is way bigger than the 223 but I've never been in a 272 to compare but the 242 looks similar in cockpit sizing.. We will know for sure this week when I measure. It is Nelson's Church in town by the bank.

Congrats with the Formula and condolences for your wife. The new bird can help with some water healing.
Happy boating and good times.

That would be greatly appreciated... Matworks has the 242 LS carpet, but it's for the one that has the captain chair style seating. But they also have the 272 carpet for the bolster seat set up. I swear the 272 and 242 have the same cockpit size. Just not enough swearing to it to buy it and have it not fit the 242 lol!

Here's the link.

I'll try to get out there tonight. I don't see any dimensions on the website to compare to but I'll get you length at the longest point, width, and distance from rear to bolsters.

That’d be a big help. The grey and teal color scheme as in the pic on their website would be a perfect match for my 242. Those were a pricey option through Formula back in the day when I bought my 242 new.

I know they can get hot in the sun, but it surprises me people didn’t keep them, at least for the cooler days or for when they sell the boat. As soon as I can confirm the fit, I'll pull the trigger.

Thanks again for all the help guys.
