Wet Willy,

Thanks for the feedback. The boat is clean inside and out. I am just working on the trailer. Looks like I will probably buy new as I am having difficulty locating something used that is adjustable. Most of the used bunk trailers I have found are fixed bunks. May work but I don't have the luxury of trail and error at this point.

Thanks for all your help.

    Default Length of Z240

    Wet Willy,

    Do you know if the 23' 4" length of the Z240 is listed as the length from the bow to the transom or the bow to the rear of the integrated swim platform?

    Thanks!

    Default 1993 Z240 Mariah on Four Winns Trailer

    Wet Willy,

    Thanks for all your help in providing the specifications for the Z240 I was considering purchasing. I ended up buying the boat and found a local dealer where the boat was located and was able to purchase a 2001 Four Winns trailer that fits the boat almost perfectly. The only thing I need to do is a slight modification to the winch stand to mate the roller above to the front bow eye(?). The trailer was in great condition, never titled and the color matched the boat. The dealer took great care of my needs and truly exceeded my expectations. The dealer is Raymond Boats in Gravois Mills, MO. I can't wait to use the boat next summer. I appreciate all your help. I will post new pictures next summer.

    Thanks again!
