    1991 280 sundancer props?

    I have the 1990 280 and use 15x16 four blades and am very satisfied. Pulls out of the hole well and tops out at 35.6 mph at 4400 at end of season. Probably will run just a little better in spring with clean bottom and fresh props.:smt038

    Surveyor Recommendation Chesapeake/Annapolis area

    I used Randy Renn for a survey and was very pleased. His verbal report convinced me I was getting a great buy. The written report followed in just a couple of days and was even more detailed. Whatever the outcome it will be money well spent.

    Steering problem 1990 280

    the drives are not supposed to lock. In this case they move too freely. When only one side [ twin engines ] is engaged the wheel will rotate changing the position of the outdrive and thus change the desired direction of the boat. Thanks for the feedback as I really did not make the problem...

    Steering problem 1990 280

    My steering works too well. Wheel will move when outdrive is in reverse. Causes a problem getting back in my slip. Tied wheel down and was able to dock as normal. There is a small hole on the steering wheel hub. Could this be an adjustment. I need to make the steering a little tighter. Any...
