2006 Stingray 240 CS

Step aboard and you’ll notice how thoughtfully this 240 CS is laid out for real-world boating days. The wide swim platform and transom walk-through make it easy to load kids, coolers, and water toys without climbing over cushions. At the helm, clear sightlines and responsive controls make close-quarters maneuvering far less stressful, even in a busy marina. Below, the compact galley and enclosed head turn a simple day cruise into an easy overnight, with enough storage to keep clutter out of the way. The cockpit’s wraparound seating invites long conversations at anchor, and the full canvas enclosure lets you extend your season when the breeze gets cool or a shower sneaks through.

This 240 CS is particularly well-suited to local waters that mix shallow bays, inland channels, and the occasional choppy stretch offshore. Its size makes it easy to trailer or tuck into tighter slips, yet it still has the beam and hull design to ride comfortably over afternoon wind chop. The cockpit layout is ideal for sandbar rafting, watersports, and dockside entertaining, while the cabin gives you a cool, quiet retreat from the midday sun. With efficient power and manageable dimensions, it’s a practical choice for skippers who want one boat that can explore backwaters, cruise the coast, and handle weekend overnighters without stepping up to a larger, more demanding cruiser.
