I'm back for more info. I posted about a 2001 280 Sundancer at Sea Ray a week or so ago but was unsure of the engine. it turns out this boat is now on the market and i'm looking at it tomorrow. It has the Single 7.4L MPI BIII (310 hp). Will this get the job done? It is usually just my wife and myself. No kids, no skiiers, no tubers etc. We're cruisers on the sparkling fresh Ohio River. I'm not looking for a go-fast performance boat but I don't want a pig either. I just sold a 1995 250 Dancer with the 7.4L 454 BI it did quite nicely but it is about 2500 lbs lighter. I have looked at the room in the engine compartment of the 280's with twins and it looks a bit tight. I don't do much of the work myself so this wont influence my decision much. I just want to know if the 7.4L MPI BIII is enough engine!!???
Thanks for any and ALL opinions!!
