Research Larson Boats 240 Cabrio Mid-Cabin Cruiser Boat

~Big water? Bring it on. There’s nothing like the feel of the smooth-running, high-performance, Larson hull. It delivers the rough-water comfort of a deep-vee hull but has a notched running surface that helps lift the stern on initial acceleration and then reduces drag for enhanced speed and fuel economy. A compass, trim tabs and dash-mounted stereo remote are standard, as well as a Clarion 4-speaker CD stereo with Sirius Satellite Radio*. And a 25-quart cooler stows below the refreshment center. Take it out for a run. You may be gone for a while. Below deck on the 240, you’ll be greeted with more than six feet of headroom. The mid-cabin has a queen–size berth with opening port. The galley features a Granulon countertop with molded sink, dual-voltage refrigerator, single-burner electric cooktop, and a standard microwave and coffee maker. The dinette seats four comfortably and converts to a double wide forward berth. It’s everything you need, and more, to recharge and revive for another fun day on the water.
