This Sea Ray 280 Sundancer is your catch of the day! This beauty is very lightly used and has always been maintained professionally, so you can rely on her fine operating condition.
She features a spacious cabin with a beautiful galley and three sleeping areas, including the Vee berth forward, a convertible dinette, and an aft cabin.
Topsides, you will love the full enclosure that provides you with another "all-weather room" that allows you to extend your boating season in both the spring and the fall.
Mechanically, this boat is hard to beat with updated risers and manifolds along with a full tuneup. The captain will love the integrated radar and chart plotter display at the helm.
