Ask him to take you for a ride and give him all the money if the gps shows the speed. He then will put his balls in his old lady’s purse!

In the pictures of the boat and trailer (all of their lettering) they mis-spelled Hallett....they have "Hallet"

I bet if those engines were on true dyno you might see 1200 to 1250...max.

While I don’t believe the boat runs anywhere near 140.. this thread, is somewhat of what was referred to in the hostility thread.

Lots of negative energy right now and no reason for it.

Sorry Dave, while I respect your unbiased opinion on here I don't sense any negativity in this thread, calling bullshit on someone whose blowing smoke up our asses to put money in there pockets is another story.

This Hallett SUX

So does the 97 240 with 800 hours for $31k and the 01 270 with 404 hours on a 500 efi for $82k.

Since when did Hallett's start being made of gold........

I must be crazy.... I like it. I wouldn't want to own it or maintain it but I wouldn't mind if a friend bought it and gave me a ride to Catalina. I will bring the Bud Light Lime.

I like the Teflon pipe sealant smeared all over the oil pump hose fittings on the starboard engine.

What's up with the engines pulled and sitting on oily pallets, propped up by scrap lumber?

Quality!

If it was a Howard would they be priced right. I thought you turned down 30k for your 22' . The 240 is the holy grail of boats should easily sell for more than a Howard 22.

Has nothing to do with if it is a Howard or not, these people are high AF. Price a boat to sell!!!!

I got offers of $37k and $39k when I listed for $35k, within 48 hours, so I guess the demand is there (when you have a low hour, well cared for boat that needs nothing).

A 240 with 800+ hours on it is hardly the holy grail of boats and is not worth a dime over $25k........

39k you must be high for not taking the money. If no integrity was willing to take 24k.

Ok.....take the money.....

yeah......then what??

We looked around and I am just not into carrying a boat loan of $90k or so. Paid for boats are more fun.

People don’t have time for fake news or care about it. Stop lying to yourself and stop being tough.

That’s the whole thing behind the hostility thread and others.

Due to the Internet people now know everything!

Hahahaha......yeah.

Not shitting on the 240 as a boat, I just don't get where these guys are getting $35k - $40k from for that boat. I am guessing they didn't look at the pics close enough or make note of the hours??

I agree. There are a ton of issues with this boat based on the pics. If the pics show them, in person I bet it is a disaster.

Hell if it is worth 35-40k it should already be marked sold at 30k.

Nobody is forcing anyone to buy the boat. If someone does, good for the guy selling it. I wouldn’t be that guy giving him the money for it. Lol

If that is just a wrap the boat has potential to clean up nicely. The old deck 40's like that were one of the best looking boats hallett ever made.

That being said, no v-bottom with side by side motors is gonna run 140, it would have a hard time running 140 with staggered engines.

The boat does looks pretty clean though.
