Strake -- What did you trade for?
I just ordered a 2015 SLX and joined this forum so this is my first post. I have about a week to make my final accessories list the only one I'm not sure of is the motor. The dealer said I'll be fine with the 350 300 hp. The 250 is a fairly heavy boat compared to my Bryant 236 by about 1100 lbs. the 350 in that works real good in than. I'm looking for some advice 350 or 496 is the 496 worth the money and how much fuel will it burn over the 350. Thanks for any advice in advance.
Just received a e-mail from the dealer my boat should be delivered to them sometime tomorrow 11-21-14. I hope to get it as soon as its comes out of the shop.
On a 26' 6" boat a cockpit sink is not very useful compared to additional seating.
Is this a common sentiment? The 280 is only 1' longer and we use the sink constantly. We put more emphasis on eating and drinking than tubing and skiing though. We stock a pairing knife (ya gotta be able to cut limes), a cutting board and the kind of plastic-wear that you can throw out, but is also worth washing. I like not having to worry about packing every detail necessary to spend a comfortable day cruising or on the hook, so washing a few plastic forks is usually worth the trouble. I also use the sink sprayer to rinse salt and sand out of the cockpit. The later 280's kept the sink, but reduced the counter and storage cabinet - even that would be a problem. I guess we put a LOT of emphasis on eating and drinking...
