Hi, I'm about to buy a 2400 SC from 2003, from a dealer.
Any particular to check/ask about before I go ahead?
Thx!

Welcome aboard

Normal stuff; soft spots in deck, engine oil color, gear lube for signs of water or metal shavings, must test ride to ensure it achieves WOT, verify all systems work.

Ask for service history documents if they have them. Review for frequency of yearly service work like engine oil & filter replacement, impeller replacement (3-5 years) drive lube change, bellows (gimble bear, exhaust & shift) and batteries.

Turn everything on before you buy it. A few little things can add up when dealing with boats. There are a lot of "Bad" boats out there so be careful.

If you don't know what to look for, consider hiring an independent surveyor. (I would not choose one recommended by the dealership).
