2005 342 FV for sale

ssck342

Looking to upgrade to our fourth (larger) Rinker.  Our 342 is in excellent condition - everything works, we use it every weekend during boating season.  Lots of bells & whistles/improvements.  GPS, Radar, Chartplotter, LED underwater lights.  Lifted, under covered dock.  I guess I don't need to tell people on this site what a great boat Rinker makes and the 342 was one of their best!  This is the newer body style 342 - trunk, flip up bolster seat at helm, roomy engine compartment.  Twin Mercruiser 350 Mags.  Priced to sell - $69,900.  Call Steve for more info and pictures at 314-581-0330.

If it's not too personal a question,  what are you thinking of buying? 

Handymans342

Looks nice but there is no such thing as a turn key boat, sorry.

@ handymans342 .....ain't that the truth!!  Lol..

@ Michael T - got my eye on 420 but it's hard to find.  SS wants 400.
@ Handymans342 - if you knew how anal my husband is....LOL
What's everyone's opinion of 420 hardtop vs. 410 and 400?

I have been eyeing those 420's as well.  Maybe in a couple years.  Knowing that the 420 was Al's baby that he pretty much designed makes me want that boat even more.  However having a full size fridge isn't something I desire.  Too much of a power hog when out on the hook.  Other than that I really like the boat.  If I recall it came with Cummins diesel V drives or 496 H/O's with XR sterndrives.

Too funny that the abbreviation for High Output was blocked out...

@graigswardmtb I took care of it.......lol

The Admiral will allow me list our 2014 EC 360 as long as I get $220K CANADIAN for it. To calculate the AMERICAN price REDUCE  that number by about 38%. BTW we have about $330K USD  in it so that would be an amazing deal for any American. BTW it has a full Mercruiser warranty on it until 2022! When we get back from the Caribbean I'll post a data sheet for the boat,  it's far too long G too list here LOL  BTW #2 Anyone who refers an eventual purchaser  will get a cheque for US 1K. :-) 

Handymans342

Michael, are you ok? Is there something you are not telling us?

craigswardmtb

Are you going 400+ Michael or new mfg all together?

Dream_Inn

craig, I guess it depends on how you wan the aft cabin laid out.  I'm not all thrilled with the 420/410s, access to many things are horrible, and as mentioned, start that genny the second you leave the dock. (most have heard me on this already)

@handy, mine is turnkey as well!

Handymans342

no way dream

Handymans342

You got gelcoat cracks all over

Dream_Inn

not sure what gel coat cracks have to do with turnkey, although I'm not sure why I'd have cracks all over??  Only place I have them is the swim platform.

Handymans342

A turn key boat needs nothing. No gelcoat repairs, no service, etc.. There is no boat in the world thats turn key. Not even a new boat. Just sayin LOL

Michael T

If the boat sold we would probably get a seadoo, too bad Rinker doesn't make one,  maybe a swagged-out pontoon boat LOL...... IF our 360 sells it would likely be to an American because with the currency status of the Canadian dollar our boat would be a ridiculously good bargain at about a 38% reduction on top of the reduced price due to it being "second hand"  ...and not to argue but I believe our boat would easily be considered  100% turnkey.  :-) 

Dream_Inn

Right on MT!  I guess mine is turnkey except a few spider cracks on my swim platform, LOL! ....I had all of my gelcoat fixed last fall and then hand waxed and buffed, so in a few weeks, push the little button on the remote to drop her in the water, turn key!

Handymans342

I have that now!

Michael T

@DI..... seems to me that you are pretty much the first guy out of the gate each spring and I'd bet your boat is as close to turn key as it gets! As for you Steve,  you have diesels so you're too slow to be on this thread!  :-) 

Handymans342

MT too much rum for you

Michael T

Steve,  is there such a thing? 

ulrch12

would you be interested in selling your dinette filler cushion?

@ Dream_Inn....... (I'm not all thrilled with the 420/410s, access to many things are horrible, and as mentioned, start that genny the second you leave the dock. (most have heard me on this already)"

You have a 40' and you are hating on 410s and 420s ??   Really ???   I've seen the pics of your boat that you have posted, and I love it !!  In fact I don't think there is really much difference between our two boats. Yeah my full size fridge is a PITA, but I bring an ice chest for all day excursions and turn off that big thing. Sometimes I just don't feel like fuming out the boat that is tied up next to me with diesel exhaust if we are just on the hook for an afternoon, but I wouldn't trade that generator for the world. (And USE THE HECK OUT OF IT !!! WHY NOT ??)

And in all seriousness...I really don't have horrible access to anything. I'm not saying my engine access is the best, but if you have to pull an engine or a pod, that little 2'x4' access door is the least of my worries :-)
