The design also stabilizes the ride at high speeds. But then, we expected that. What is surprising is how quiet the ride is, even at higher rpm and speeds. From the driver's seat we measured 83 decibels, making it the second quietest boat we've tested, bettered only by a Cobalt, a boat that costs thousands more. Second, the 240 is stable at the dock.
Passengers can walk from side to side without seriously affecting the boat.
And third, the 240 comes standard with a dinette table and supports and cushions to convert the rear of the cockpit to a recessed sun pad. When it comes to towing, the 240 is equally suitable, and for several reasons. The deck features a nonskid design that is more effective than most. On the trailer or in the water, the boat's attitude directs water on the deck to the drains. People who boat a lot in brackish water will appreciate the transom shower, also standard.
