How did this happen!!!!

aero3113

We now own two boats!!
Just closed today on a 2008 330. Needs a little elbow grease to get her to where I would like but overall we’re VERY happy with the purchase. If anyone is looking for a nice 2001 242, please let me know. I’m a motivated seller!

The only thing better than owning one boat is owning two. Congrats

Some admirals will have you sleeping on the boat for such talk. I dont see that as a punishment.  

Very sweet boat!  Not your typical 2ft upgrade, what are you going to do with all your extra space?

aero3113

Thanks guys. We have two daughters, a 2 year old and a 3 month old. We felt that with the two and ourselves we were running out of space quickly. With the space and options of the 330, I think we will be very comfortable. I’m also excited that I no longer have to manually throw out and pull up the anchor!! ⚓️

Very nice upgrade!  I remember when we went from the 240 to the 310.  Windlass was definitely a nice upgrade as well as a generator!  Enjoy that beautiful 330!

We likewise bought a 2008 330 2 years ago.  Moved up from a 28’.  With the increased room from a 24  (beam, length, headroom in cabin and cockpit) you’ll feel like you bought a condo.

aero3113

Yes, @Spyderweb , HUGE difference from our 242. Do you happen to know anything about the engine room battery switches? Check out my other post.

The dash panels were all faded, I couldn’t even read the switches. I’m in the process of replacing them, and all new gauges also.

Nice I love child labor.  Teach her on paper and she won't  need one of those electronic gadgets. Good job. She's really cute too

Stodge

Very nice.

Hmm...if I got one of those floating condos i could rent out my home!  

How do marinas feel about pet pigs?  Keywest allows and even protects chickens!

I spent the summer with my own fleet.  Bought an '08 350 in the spring, spent the summer trying to sell our '08 280.  Finally handed over the keys just before Labor Day.  Good luck on selling your 242.
