1998 Doral 300 SC V DriveSold

Doral 300 SC is a very well built Cruiser with a very ageless look and design. For a 1998, this boat still shows very well and it's mechanically turnkey ready for the new owner to drive home. All the photos and the included video were made on 3/21/2025 and show the boat exactly as it is, (underwater gear pictures are older, but show how the propulsion system is built). The decks and hull are solid throughout and we have not found any soft spots anywhere on this boat. Most cruisers in the 30 ft size range come with common sterndrives, which simply are NOT suitable for boats stored in salt water. With inboard V drives, this Doral is an exception and the boat is built with in water storage in mind. We also installed a complete, new Mercruiser OEM exhaust system on both engines at the end of 2024 and the new manifolds and risers have only a few hours of runtime. The engines are closed cooled with antifreeze, which is very important if boating in salt water. Both engines have been replaced with new long blocks by the owner before the last. At $23,000, this boat offers excellent value for money for anyone looking for a lower entry cost to the world of boating. Some of the highlights of this Doral 300 SC:

• Closed cooled engines with antifreeze for salt water use
• Inboard V-Drive propulsion with transmissions instead of the common outdrives
• Ice cold 16,000 BTU Cruiseair air conditioning
• Sea Recovery reverse osmosis water maker
• Full galley with pressure water, cook top and microwave.
• Vacuflush head system with a new vacuum pump
• Fresh water flush kits for both engines to flush the heat exchangers and the exhaust
• Power operated transom storage locker
• Lenco trim tabs with new actuators
• 4 blade propellers with an extra set of 3 blade spare propellers
• Cockpit cover and a bimini top in excellent condition
• Raymarine A70 plotter (fully functional, but the screen is weak and does not show very well)
• Garmin GPS (works very well)
• Raymarine tri data display for depth and water temp
• New upgraded stereo system with Kicker speakers and subwoofer
• New bow sunbeds
• All cushions in very serviceable condition with only minor blemishes
• Cockpit wetbar with a sink and a recently replaced refrigerator in 100% working condition
• Updated galley refrigerator in 100% working condition
