1996 Sea Ray 280 Bowrider - Twin 2019 MerCruiser 350 MPI Engines | Only 65 Freshwater Hours
A rare opportunity to own an exceptionally well-cared-for 1996 Sea Ray 280 Bowrider that has benefited from significant mechanical and cosmetic upgrades. With newer power, updated drives, refreshed upholstery and flooring, this boat offers tremendous value for someone looking for a spacious, premium bowrider.
The standout feature is the pair of upgraded 2019 MerCruiser 350 MPI engines, which have only approximately 65 all-freshwater hours. The Bravo I sterndrives were also replaced in 2021, providing an impressive combination of updated power and low hours.

The Sea Ray 280 Bowrider provides an impressive amount of space for entertaining family and friends while maintaining the open layout and versatility that make a large bowrider so enjoyable. From the expansive cockpit and comfortable bow seating to the convenience center and enclosed head, this boat is well equipped for full days on the water.
Most importantly, the investment in 2019 MerCruiser power, 2021 Bravo I drives, and updated interior appointments separates this Sea Ray from the typical boat of its age. For someone looking for a large twin-engine bowrider without stepping into the price point of a much newer boat, this is a unique opportunity.
