Anyone ever come across one of these? It is a 1963 Sea Ray 990. It is 17 feet long with an outboard. It has a small cabin.Would like to find out more about this boat. We are thinking of buying it (the one in the picture). Have never seen one of these any where before. We printed out the brochure from the Sea ray site and yes it is a 990.

a buddy of mine has a boat somewhat similar except for the windshield up top. cool looking boat.
 
looks like a cool old boat, if you can get it cheap enough, fix her up some and enjoy the water. where do you plan on boating at....

Sometimes the Chesapeake Bay sometimes the Susquehana River. We used to have a 32 foot bayliner that we sold. We wanted to go smaller, price of gas and slip fees were starting to get the better of us.
 
After you acquire it, contact Sea Ray and let them know what you have. They may help you find rare restoration items, and then, maybe they can feature it in Sea Ray magazine.
 
That's a cool looking old boat. Bet that will turn heads. Did you buy it yet or still just thinking about it?
 
We want the boat. We are waiting for the owner to except our offer or not. It is a cool looking boat. I am beginning to think it is one of a kind at least in this part of the country!

What part is that. I'm not sure it's that way everywhere. I drive truck in all 48 states. I see gems both cars and boats in backyards all over the country. It bothers me to see these once proud machines just abandoned by an owner who has "been getting to it" for 10 years. Buy nonetheless. a 1963 anything is cool.:thumbsup:
 
South Central PA mostly. I have been looking in the online boat sale sites and have not come across another one like it.
 
My father had the Sea Ray 990 and sold it in Florida. The name of the boat was "No Time" and I have been looking to buy it since he died. If anyone sees it or one like it, please let me know. I loved that boat and it had alot of memories.

I am willing to pay above the value depending on condition. Thanks.

That is a really cool find. Hope you get her. Better start looking for a vintage OB to put on her:grin:
 
I just wish I had got most of these post on the first go. I will drive 1000 miles for a glassic at the right price.
