Anybody know how many different gelcoat colors sea ray used from 84-88? Is there a darker and lighter beige color used through out the years?

I had my second viewing of the 270 yesterday thatI've had my eye on. For the most part the boat looks good. There are three possible issues, first off I think the front cleat is bleeding through into the cabin. If thats so than I'd guess the balsa core is wet/rotted as well, and to what extent...

Where is the location of the step down pump in the 270DA? I'm going to do a 2nd viewing soon and would like to know where the hatch is.

More questions from the ducnut. Ok, so I'm considering a 1988 270DA. I did my first viewing last week and I felt the boat looked good from what I could tell inside the blue shrink wrap. The first thing I noticed was it having white outdrives, yikes. I asked the broker if they were merc, he said...

I'm wondering what an estimated shipping cost would be to move a boat from Michigan to lake Champlain (700 miles). I'm thinking of maybe a late 80's 270DA and they seem to be limited in Champlain but there are quite a few on lake Erie. Just wondering if it would be worth to consider shipping one.

So I went to check out a 268 dancer local to me. This is an original owner boat, never stored in the water or even outdoors. It has been barn kept (he built a small barn for the boat), babied, lots of options and extras that come with the boat(new magma grill, bigger front hatch, newer outdrive...

Well , I posted a wanted ad on Craig's list to do a little fishing for a classic dancer. Boom, fish on!!! I got a call form a guy about 45 minutes from me with a 86 268' one owner, barn stored since 92! Newer out drive (hit a log!). i don't believe this boat has ever been stored in the water...

Sorry for all the questions lately, but you guys are like classic Sea Ray gods! Anyway. I'm wondering if anyone knows what type hulls the dancers of different eras have? I've intrested in knowing about the dancers from 84 to about 93? I've read some have a solid hull bottom and sides, some have...

Just wondering the structural differences mainly. Are these era Sea Rays as solid as the older boats? I know there will be a size difference, and the other obvious things in the cabin and cockpit & the molded swim platform. What about the hings you can't "see"? Im a classic fan but an curious...

Im checking out a 88 270 da on Friday, recently listed, but I've seen no pictures. It is close by, no trailer but I could just take a day and drive it up the lake if it all works out. Any idea what condition I should be expecting for a 10k 270 with twin 175's and 600 hrs and a fairly new camper top?

Anyone have any pics of their fishing setups? Anyone have any good tips or tricks on rod holders / storage, riggers, finders...? Im just looking for ideas on what to get and most of all, where you sea ray pros mount your gear.

I'm looking at getting into a 268 and and wondering your opinions on these two setups. I will be doing some of my own maintenance and the space in the engine compartment seems really cramped with the twin 6's. As far as power and relieability I'd think the 6's would be better. Any input is...

I'm currently looking at a boat 3hours from home, I noticed in some pics that were sent to me that the port drives skeg looks as if it's broken toward the bottom. Would this be a deal breaker if this is the case and the drive has met a rock at some point in its life? Im worried about the prop...

I now own a 245 dancer that is in good shape for an 83'. I'm looking to upgrade to a 268 but I'm worried about fuel usage. Do you think I will see a big increase in jumping up in size?My boat has 350 merc, and the 88 268 I've got my eye on has the twin v6's. This boat will be used for fishing...

I've found a 90 DA 250 local to me in my search for a 87ish 268. Are there any other differences in build quality other than the lack of nice wood in the 1990?

There is a beautiful 300 dancer local to me that looks to be in great shape at a decent price. It has twin 350's with 1500 hrs on them. Is that to many hours to consider? How long, if taken care of, will these things last? I figured as long as a compression test looks good in all cylinders I...

Hello all, i know opinions here will be bias toward the sea ray, I love them as well but I found a really nice low hour 1990 Formula 26pc at a decent price. I currently have an 83 SD 245 I'm restoring but would like something a little bigger. So what are you opinions on the Formula? Im also...

Hello Club Sea Ray members! I'm now the proud owner of a 83 sundancer 245, I bought it from a meticulous owner who had the boat built for him late in 83. This boat has spent its life on lake Champlain and has been in the water every year from memorial to labor day since it was new. It has seen...
