I just bought my first Four Winns so I thought I would introduce myself to the group. I was shopping for a sporty family bowrider and came across a 2008 240 with the Frenzy package (black) with the 8.1 375HP motor. I can't wait to get her in the water and see what she'll do. I'll post pictures as soon as I get a chance to launch her.

Welcome to the forum!


Ditto...I had a 260 with that motor and it was more power than I needed. Be careful if you pull people on skis...you don't want to rip their arms off.

Welcome

The vp 8.1 will push my 268 Vista about 49 mph on a good day. Ought to scoot the 240 right along.

Two things never to skimp on: motor and stereo.

It will be a fun summer for you, enjoy the water!
