12/9/2011 I purchased my boat 4 months before hurricane Katrina devastated new Orleans. My 24 lts survived and has mauled the trout around south east Louisiana since. I am a 6 year year staff officer in the coast guard auxiliary. This boat has towed 3 distressed boats in from the marsh and has saved a lab retriever from the Mississippi river gulf outlett. I am more than comfortable in my triton and haven't found another boat I would be willing to trade my triton for.

I started my boating life in 1985 with a 13' Boston Whaler/ 35hp Johnson, (later changed to a 60 Evinrude) moved to a 17'-6" Hydra Sports F+S/ 140hp Johnson, (later changed to a 150 XR-2 Mercury) then to a Stratos 201 Pro bass boat/ GT 175 Johnson (later changed to a Johnson 225hp HO.
As you can see, always moving up.
I was looking to move to a bay boat and Triton was on the short list. My son and I looked closely at one at the Timonium, MD boat show years ago and I fell in love.
I already knew Triton's reputation from being around bass boats and following the Red Fish Trail, where the 240 was king.
At that time it was just a dream to have one. A few years went by and I found a used 2005 with 42 hours on it in a nearby state that was priced right! I jumped on it and never looked back.
Friends have said, "Well, you will be wanting a bigger boat soon". My answer is, "No, I don't, this does everything I will ever want in a fishing boat!".
Plenty of room for multiple anglers, storage galore, large live wells, a bait well, and the styling no other can touch, plus more.
I do not go in the ocean but it is nice to know if ever I would like to venture out, I can feel secure following my safety check list.
I fish for everything that swims in the Chesapeake Bay, mostly stripers now. My guest and I feel safe in any (reasonable) conditions mother nature can throw at us.
There is not a time I go out that i do not get a compliment on the boat. I feel a little strange thanking them, I didn't design it, I'm just a proud lucky owner.

3/24/2011 In 2009 I was looking to downsize from a 32' CC to a 24' bay boat. After looking at every productiion bay boat available I chose the 240 LTS. It's THE best riding bay boat hands down. I had mine 25 miles offshore in 3'-4' seas and never felt uncomfortable. It's also very dry. The storage is fantastic. I hate a cluttered deck and in the LTS there is places to store everything out of the way. Construction is top notch as is the fit and finish work. I have a Yamaha F250 on mine and I can get 3 mpg cruising at 30 mph. She tops out at 51 mph. From offshore, to coastal marshes to freshwater bass fishing and pulling skiers, the Triton LTS is a perfect fit
