2004 242 Abaco in excellent condition. It only has 240 hours on the Yamaha 225 four-stroke. The boat gets great fuel economy. The cabin that comfortably sleeps 3 and contains a head. The helm includes custom splash curtains, an Icom VHF radio, a Lowrance lcx-104c 10.4 inch color GPS/fish-finder combo with navionics path software and all of the SC DNR reefs plus some of our secret spots. The hard top has 15 foot taco extendable outriggers and rocket launcher rod holders. There are 19 rod holders on board! There is a tackle station on the starboard side that includes a sink, live-well, and tackle drawers. The port side features a large 60 gallon fish box. There are 2 fishbox/drink coolers as well. The stern includes a full bench seat that can be used for cruising or removed to drag that big fish on board. There is a swim platform and ladder on the port side as well. The boat has a wash down system with a 6 gallon freshwater tank and a selector to use raw water. This is a great boat and we are selling it to upgrade. This boat is kept in a shed on the included 2004 dual axle trailer with brakes. The motor has been routinely serviced and runs PERFECTLY. Boat is located in Manning SC (about 45 mins south of Columbia).

Yea, the boat was VERY well laid out. You can tell that the scout designer not only design boats but fish as well. During the heat of the battles we have used the sink as bait holder and this seems to work very well. Add alittle ice and bait is easy to get to, cut up, and hook on. We are going to miss it but it was the start of bigger and better things to come!
Updated pictures to be visible without clicking. Also I am sorry about how dirty the boat is in these pics. I took them on my way out of town and forgot how dirty my little brother left it. He has since cleaned everything up. I need to retake the pictures to show just how great of shape it is in. Any special picture requests please let me know.
Thanks!
She sold over the weekend. Little faster than I thought. Maybe I should have asked more.
A gentlemen in Charleston SC got a really nice boat.
Thanks for every ones help. If you ever have 242 questions shoot me a message.
