From the day of its introduction the 242 has won loud and spontaneous “Hey, look!”s from essentially everyone who has seen it, the adulation distributed equally among Cobalt standards of ride, performance, and handsomeness. The 242 is all about access – the wide bow walkthrough doors, the laddered swim platform, and deep, wide, right-there storage -- with every square inch maximized for all-day use, as in the bow with its optional dinette table. Remember too that practicality – adjustable backrests, insulated ice chests, removable ski pylons, cylinder-assist lifting, and chair pockets – deserve its own perhaps more restrained outbursts of affection. The 242, so much more than a pretty face.
