2017 Yamaha 242X E-Series — 200 Hours, Always Stored Indoors, Trailer Included
This is the surf and wake boat our family has loved for years, and it's ready for its next chapter. Only 200 hours, runs perfectly, and has been meticulously maintained — always stored indoors in heated storage, batteries kept on a tender, and never used in salt water. The only cosmetic marks are minor surface scratches that don't penetrate the gel coat. We're selling because our storage situation changed and the kids are older, so it's just not getting the use it deserves.
Seats 12 comfortably, and the wrap-around cockpit with convertible rear-facing lounge seating makes every day on the water feel like a party. The massive swim platform is one of my favorite features — because there's no exposed propeller, passengers can safely sit right at the water's edge while we're anchored. It's something you have to experience to appreciate.
KEY FEATURES:
- Factory Wake Booster Surf System — integrated ballast tanks and Yamaha's surf technology produce excellent wake surf and wakeboard wakes right out of the box, with no aftermarket add-ons needed.
-
- Wake Tower with Board Racks — full tower with tow points for all watersports; the 242X was purpose-built for surf and wake, so the tower and rigging are factory-engineered for the platform.
-
- Always Stored Indoors — heated indoor storage since new, batteries maintained on a tender, never saltwater. This boat has been cared for the way you'd want your next boat to be.
