Twin MerCruiser 4.3L | Generator | Air Conditioning | NEW Eisenglass | New Upholstery

Powered by twin MerCruiser 4.3L engines with 572 hours on the port side and 583 hours on the starboard side, she offers reliable performance and confident handling. A recent oil change has been completed, and she is mechanically solid and ready for her next owner.

One of the standout features of this vessel is the air conditioning, allowing you and your guests to stay cool and comfortable in the cabin during warm summer days or extended overnight stays. Paired with the onboard 5kW generator, you can enjoy full cabin functionality whether you're at anchor or away from shore power. Another major upgrade is the brand new eisenglass enclosure, which dramatically improves visibility from the helm, enhances weather protection, and extends your boating season while giving the cockpit a clean, refreshed appearance.

The cockpit layout is designed for entertaining and relaxation, featuring new upholstery throughout the seating areas, wraparound cockpit seating with a removable table, a wet bar with sink, and a walk-through windshield providing easy access to the bow. The integrated swim platform with boarding ladder makes water access simple and convenient for swimming or waterside lounging. A flat screen TV in the cockpit adds an elevated entertainment touch, perfect for relaxing at the dock or hosting friends. Cockpit also has an incredible sound system with a subwoofer behind the captain's seat.

Below deck, the cabin offers comfortable accommodations for weekend cruising, including a forward V-berth, mid-cabin sleeping area, convertible dinette, and an enclosed head with toilet, sink, and shower. The galley is equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, sink, and ample storage, making overnight stays practical and enjoyable. A flat screen TV in the salon provides additional onboard entertainment and comfort. Traditional analog gauges at the helm provide straightforward operation and reliability, giving the next owner the flexibility to upgrade navigation electronics to their preference.

The Sea Ray 280 Sundancer remains one of the most popular mid-size cruisers ever built, known for its deep-V hull design, smooth ride, and balanced performance. With air conditioning, 5kW generator, brand new eisenglass, flat screen TVs in both the salon and cockpit, and new upholstery, this boat presents an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to step into comfortable, turnkey cabin cruising.
