Offer accepted.

Well I submitted an offer today, the dance begins :)

Yes this boat has been repowered (2017) with the new 4.5L 250hp Merc's. I wanted to see if anyone had any experience with these engines. So far I have had no negative feedback on them.

Hello- I am considering a 1999 290 Sundancer that has bee repowered with the Mercury 4.5L (250 hp) engines. Does any have any feedback or experience with these engines. Thanks.

Closed- the new engines are the reason I am interested in this particular boat. I think the asking price is a little high. But if I make an offer we will see. Any feedback on the 4.5L Merc engine?

Hey guys- I am downsizing from my SR 380AC. I am looking at a 1999 290 that has been repowered with 4.5L Mercs (250 HP versions). Boat looks to be in great shape (haven't seen in person yet). Anything special to look at with one of these boats? I have been a boat owner for a long time so I know...

Kanga- On my 380AC the swim ladder is in the center of the swim platform under a small hatch. You can see the outline of the hatch in the photo. I think if you want to add one, you might find something that mounts on the underside of the platform.

Downsizing and selling my 2000 380 AC. Details can be seen here. https://www.gcyachts.com/boats-for-sale/2000-sea-ray-aft-cabin-key-largo-florida-7902266/

From what I have read there have been some heavy seas around FL these last few days. Doesn't sound like a good time to be in the Gulf Stream in an overloaded boat.
