10 reviews from owner forums, marine magazines and boating sites
Our owners and the reviewers we follow describe the AR240 as a family-focused twin-engine jet boat with quick acceleration. Testers measured a very short time to plane and a fast run to 30 mph. One first-time owner of a family of four regularly runs around 50 mph with just the family aboard, and a little slower with a full load of friends.
Space and layout come up often. The cockpit has a large U-shaped lounge, and the companion seat turns to face the stern to form a chaise-style seat. The bow seating is roomy and the stern area suits water activities. One owner carried 12 people, six of them kids, and found it plenty roomy.
Handling is another common theme. The keel design gives sharper turns at speed, good tracking through chop and wakes, and a smoother ride. One owner who stepped up from a smaller boat noticed this right away. At very low speeds the boat responds less to steering input, so docking takes a light touch until you get accustomed to it.

One of our owners regularly carries a family of four plus another family of five, and has had 12 aboard, six of them kids, and found it plenty roomy. The wide deck layout suits full groups.
The keel design gives sharp handling at speed, and the boat tracks well through chop and wakes without skidding in fast turns. At very low speeds, steering response is softer.
Docking takes a light touch because the boat responds less to steering input at low speeds. Reviewers note the keel design also eases much of the learning curve that comes with jet boats.
