Well maintained 2008 Four Winns Vista 278 with Generator, Ready to Hit the Water
For sale is a well-maintained 2008 Four Winns Vista 278 that offers both comfort and power for your time on the water. This stylish express cruiser has only 325 hours on the engine and just 68 hours on the generator, making it one of the lowest-hour boats of its kind currently available. It's powered by a Volvo Penta 8.1L Gi engine producing 375 horsepower, paired with a duo prop drive that delivers smooth acceleration, great handling, and excellent fuel efficiency. Whether you're cruising across open water or easing into a quiet cove, this setup offers the kind of performance and control that boating enthusiasts appreciate.
The Vista 278 is known for blending comfort with function. On deck, you'll find a spacious cockpit perfect for entertaining or relaxing. There's plenty of seating, and the layout makes it easy to move from the helm to the swim platform or cabin. Below deck, the interior is thoughtfully designed for weekend getaways, featuring a well-equipped galley, a dinette that converts to a berth, a separate mid-cabin sleeping area, and a full bathroom with a hot water shower. The generator provides power for overnight stays or extended trips, so you can enjoy air conditioning, cooking appliances, and other amenities even when you're away from shore.
This Four Winns has been cared for, with light use and proper maintenance throughout its life. With only 325 hours on the motor, the engine still has many seasons of life ahead, and the low-hour generator is a rare bonus in this price range. If you're looking for a clean, powerful cruiser that's ready for the water without needing upgrades or repairs, this is the boat for you. It's the perfect fit for someone who wants reliability, comfort, and value all in one package. Don't miss your chance to own a well-built, lightly used cruiser that's built for making memories on the water.
