Hello all, stumbled upon this site by Googling SeaRay forums and it seems to be awesome.
Wife and I will be in the market over the winter for a used SunDeck to use for pleasure cruising, tubing, hanging at Tices Shoal, visiting friends, whatever! Had my search narrowed down to a 240 Sundeck with the 5.0 Merc, Bravo 3 but after reading a thread on here I may need to find one a 240, 260 or 270 with a 5.7 or 6.2 to battle the bay and choppy water. We like a bow rider so I figure the SunDeck is a great slightly larger bowrider that the two of us and our 92lb dog will get to enjoy comfortably.
I'm not new to boating, have 8 years experience with my family's 2004 Hurricane FunDeck 218R with a 150hp Yamaha outboard, which was a great boat but man did you get beat up if the bay was rough.
Any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Our budget is about $25k but can go up for the right boat. Thanks and I look forward to learning from you all!
