Very well maintained 2005 Grady-White 282 Sailfish ready to go! Radar! Head! Air Conditioned Cabin!
This 2005 Grady White 282 Sailfish is an incredible find that is ready for a new home, as the sellers are no longer using it much. She has been kept in great condition, and service records are available upon request.
She is powered by twin Yamaha 250 hp motors with 406 hours on them. One motor was built in 2004 and the other in 2005.
On deck, you get lots of room to store gear as well as easy access to fish boxes and a live well. She has a big 251 qt fish box at the stern and another 166 qt fish box starboard side below the helm seat. Portside, you get a 40-gallon live well. This boat also has radar and a custom, stainless steel shade that keeps everyone in the back of the boat out of the sun.
Inside the cabin, you'll find a roomy space with 2 berths, a galley, and an enclosed head with a shower and working AC. The galley includes a stove, sink, refrigerator, and microwave. There are 2 sliding windows in galley and above the bed is a vented tinted hatch.
This boat includes a bimini top with stainless steel framework.
The inside storage in Venice can be transferred to the new owner if desired. Otherwise, there is about an 18-month waiting list to get in there.
Don't wait too long to arrange a showing or make an offer before traveling to see it. This unit in this condition will sell fast!
