1988 242 ls?
Just looking for some input. I recently bought an '88 242ls. Repowered with a Merc 502hp mag mpi. Still has the bravo one on it. What kind of performance should i be getting out of this boat? What kind of prop should i be running? (Currently has Mirage+ on it) Is there anythingin particular i should watch for on this specific boat?I've owned many smaller boats (mostly outboard). So this is all kind of new to me. Any info/ input is helpful.

i think with the 502 you should be around 58-60, they are nice boats just get some seat time and play with the boat, getting the right trim, play with the tabs. We also need to see a pic!!

Where are you located?

We will need pictures of the water you boat in also. And any girls at your local sand bar. |
Well currently the water looks like **** to due to a toxic algae bloom so the scenery isn't that great. I can help out with the other part of that once i figure out why my bilge is full of oil and get the boat back in the water
