Terrific Day Cruiser with Power to Spare

The 240 Magnum is a spacious and speedy bowrider with a U-shaped aft seating area, deep, safe bow compartment, swivel bucket seats, and wave-taming handling characteristics.  It will make a great big-lake day cruiser. There’s plenty of storage space under seats and in the starboard console locker, a head in the port-side console locker and a cockpit table at the U-shaped seating area.

Boats & Places tested the 240 Magnum on the Ottawa River … at fuel friendly cruising speeds of 29 mph at 3,000 rpm and 35 mph at 3,500 rpm, the 240 should let you play all day without worrying about refueling.  With a 300-hp Mercruiser 350 MAG MPI with multiport fuel injection under the hatch, spinning a 23 inch prop through a Bravo One outdrive, the 240 came up with a top speed of 50 mph.  The boat tracked well at all speeds, turning on demand with little loss of speed, and with just a little trim.
