Hi Everyone!
We are in the market for an express cruiser and have narrowed our search to a SR 240 or 260 Sundancer. We are looking for a weekender with good overnight ability. I am 6'1 250lbs, my wife and little one for a total of 2.5 on a typical outing. Would be nice to be able to take a few more folks out at least for the day from time to time.
I have extensive maritime experience yet we are on the fence as to which one to go with...
We would probably appreciate the additional size of the 260 but the cost savings of the 240 would allow us to get into a much newer boat, which is a priority. Does the 260 offer noticeably better stability in weather? Is the head on both small, and or is the 240's head smaller than the 260?
240 probably 2010-2012
260 probably 2006-2009
Is the 240 about the same in terms of being pulled on a trailer? I have looked up the stats. We a chevy Tahoe and being able to tow back to our home town would be helpful.
Sounds like the Bravo III has a bit better harbor maneuverability?
Any info from those that know about these models would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
