Default baja 252 Vs 342 bridge clearence?

I know random question....... BUT anyone have ANY idea from personal expericne if they are close?

there is an event, and a great restaraunt on the other side of a causeway... my current 252 now does fit.... the windshield clears by about a foot...

think a 342 would make it? how much taller is the edge of the windshield?

would love to see a pic of the 2 side by side....

You can try the archives. I don't know if they list clearance or not.

I would GUESS you would lose more than one foot in clearance.

Don't know if this will help or not. My 242 matched up pretty well with my cousins 342 the few time we tied up. Not sure to the top of windshield, but rubrail to rubrail they were about the same.

If I can find it, I have a pic of both boats sitting in the water near each other. I will look and see how the windshields line up.

Yes that would be great. from looking at my own pics, my 252 was close to a buddys 27 rinkers windshield, and now my 342 is right about the same too.... but i need to KNOW before june 9th... i have to make it under that bridge then haha.

yeah..after looking at that pic (sorry can't post it - nonmember) i must have been drunk when we tied up.

I know the 242 is close to the 252/272 but their 342 looked like about the height of the windshield difference. It looks like mine stop at the bottom or near bottom of thier windshield

hope that helps
