Just wondering if anyone has calculated the per hour direct operating cost on a late model 280 Sundancer.
Also how much to repower the engine with a factory overhaul or reman.
I am searching for a late model 280 and trying to compare the standard 300HP vs the optional 380HP. Any thoughts? Not too concerned with the additional fuel burn cost but thinking I will have less range with the bigger engine due to increase fuel burn. Also wondering about resale??
I have located a Sundancer equipped with the optional SecCore system. Boat has less than 100 hours TT. I am looking for feedback and or advice on this option along with the reliability of the DTS, (Digital Throttle) vs the cable linkage arrangement. Is the DTS prone to any failures being a...
I have located a late model Sundancer that has bottom paint applied up to and around the IO ring and does not have the 1" to 1.5" spacing on the transom around the IO. Is this something I should steer clear of because of corrosion issues? I have been told it is not a big deal providing the boat...
Looking for the approximate weight of a 2014 or newer 280 Sundancer equipped with all the normal options ( Air, Heat, Cockpit Frig, Grill. Generator, Carpet etc). I know the published numbers by Sea Ray but that is basic empty weight. Thank you

I am looking at a late model 280 that does not have the camper canvas option and was wondering if anyone has the option field installed and if so looking for approximate cost. Upper Chesapeake area
Getting ready to pull the trigger on a late model 280 Sundancer and was wondering if anyone on this thread can share their thoughts and or experiences with the single 300HP engine. With full fuel and four-five on board...Is it enough power? Thanks
A bit concerned after reading this thread. Has anyone had any issues with late model 280 Sundancers, 2014 thru 2016? Been on the hunt and might be getting ready to pull the trigger sometime this fall.
So this past summer I started out thinking of a 260 Sundancer (new or late model) and quickly gravitated towards the 280 after looking at both side by side. I am now thinking 310 late model however one without a generator. Just wondering how often are the generators used and if a 310 Sundancer...
