Sea Ray 280 Sun Sport

The 280 Sun Sport from Sea Ray offers some difficult choices. Difficult, because there are so many, it's hard to decide. Besides the popular standard cockpit layout, there's a fishing package that includes an aft bench seat, helm seat with storage base, live baitwell and prep center, four rod holders, and tubular arch with rocket launchers. Then there's the sport package, with chrome through-hull fittings, fiberglass sport spoiler, premier stereo, and two-tone gelcoated graphics. No matter which package is chosen, the 280 Sun Sport features a comfortable cabin that was redesigned for the 2000 model year to provide more headroom, a wider V-berth, and a new galley countertop with sink and standard dual-voltage refrigerator. The V-berth sets up easily for dining with a stowable table, and bunking down is just as easy. Simply remove the table, insert the filler cushions and relax. To port, the entertainment center with cooler and glass rack is ideal for serving extra guests. The enclosed head features all fiberglass construction with sink, vanity, pullout shower, and standard VacuFlush head with holding tank. A standard carbon monoxide monitor helps everyone feel safer when on board. Above, the cockpit is also efficient with a self-bailing fiberglass liner, molded dash with full instrumentation, high water bilge pump and alarm at the helm, standard depth finder and compass, plus an electrically actuated engine hatch for easy access. But even with all that function, form still remains a priority. Attractive wood accents highlight the dash along with a classic Italian mahogany tilt steering wheel for an extra touch of class. Passengers can enjoy a meal or just the view from the generous circular aft seat that surrounds a standard cockpit table. There's abundant storage space in the floor, in the cockpit side panels and lockers, concealed in the circular seating, and beneath the back-to-back lounger seats. The cockpit of the Sea Ray 280 Sun Sport comes with everything from a Clarion AM-FM digital cassette stereo with six speakers, amplifier and remote control, to a complete entertainment center with wet bar, cooler, glass rack, and trash receptacle. There's even a portable cooler with its own dedicated storage space. There are plenty of other standard features on the 280 Sun Sport, too, like power steering, power tilt and trim, plus all the standard safety systems. Movement to the forward deck is safe and simple with molded steps built right into the cabin door, and a walk-through windshield with steel supports. Even the wide swim platform has been engineered for safety with a walk-through transom door and a concealed compartment for the swim ladder. Entering and leaving the boat is easy and secure. An optional add-on swim platform creates even more space for boarding or engine work. The options available for the 280 Sun Sport are extensive - from a microwave oven to central heat and air, and everything in between.

Additional Equipment

Hard to find in this boat but I have installed a newer high efficiency AC & Heat unit that works fantastic making over night stays much more comfortable. You cannot even here it running. Also, windlass anchor installed which also works fantastic. The boat was cared for with an open check book.

Accommodations

It kills me to sell her, she has been a fantastic boat for many years, it was just time for something bigger. She gets put in storage, always heated indoor storage since I've had her. Please don't waste my time, I want the boat to go to a good home, contact me with any questions, thank you!
