Can you identify this Sea Ray

[James M]

This is the fist boat my dad bought and where I spent a lot of time in my childhood. I was wondered if anyone could tell me the model. I believe it was a early to mid 90s model year.

Well, it says 270 on it, either a 90 or 91. In 92 it became a 290. Mine is a 90

What is the HIN?

Could also be a 1993 model looking at the trim on the arch.

The '93s had a port hole window on the bow.

Was that just the smaller boats? My 93 370 Express had the old sliding windows and got the port hole in a later year.

I owned the exact same boat a few years back...same color seats and side panels.
It was a 1991 270 Sundancer

I'm curious why the OP asked the question. I thought he was trying to figure out what boat his Dad owned. The original picture looks old but the other pictures look a lot newer......

I was told a while back it was not fair expecting the OP's to follow in less than 24 hours. LOL

Im curious how a 270 turned into a 290. Did the same thing happen to the 280's

Hopefully he will return with more info so that he can get the answers that he is seeking. After his 24 hour deadline has expired he is on his own. I wonder if that is his former self back in the day sitting on the deck??

Is that is a hat he is wearing? Nobody can have that much hair!!

Ha ha I wish I had pics of my west coast days for you . In the years I call the hippie years shortly after my military service I let it all grow and man it grew after all those clipped jobs .I gained 6 inches in height with my mop and my head looked about as wide as my shoulders . Now I'm old and grey and clip it myself again oh the indignity
