Sea Ray 260

Great boat in excellent shape; everything works and have service records from date of purchase. Last year of the Teak Wood edition? Has 1080 original hours with complete engine/drive replacement at 1026 hours. This boat went from a 260 hp stock V8 to a balanced/blueprinted professionally built 350hp 350 with every manifold, hose, starter, alternator, ignition system (MSD marine), drive shaft, out drive component replaced. New motor/outdrive/prop combination propels this 5,200# cruiser 22 mph @ 3,500rpm and 36-40 mph @ 4,500rpm(WOT). Fuel consumption ~ 3gph at cruise and 7gph fully loaded and WOT. Boat has performed in every condition for us you can think of, except salt water. You can spend 2-weeks on Lake Powell, pull a pyramid of skiers (3), cruise the AR. river to the MS. river and back, fish for days and run short spins around the local lake for fireworks and swimming. It is very versatile, handles nimbly (can turn about in it's own space) and loaded with every option available and then added more after we bought the boat. 2-sleeping quarters, sleeps 6 including layout dining area; 2-more can sleep on rear deck with air mattress. Full head with toilet (not porta potti), shower and sink; 100 gallon fuel, 30 gallon fresh water, 6 gallon black with pump out, 5 gallon water heater (120v shore power/engine heat exchanger when running). Kitchen has stainless steel sink, 120v ac/12v dc-refrigerator and alcohol 2-burner cook top. Sony am/fm stereo with 4-speakers, multi-cd/mp3 controls and remote control at helm. 3-batteries, 1-dedicated to starting, the other 2 reserved to accessory usage with isolation switch; all 3 batteries charged by shore charger and electronic isolator during engine run. Bulkhead with 2 pumps (one in cabin/one in engine compartment) that are both float controlled and manual. Propane grill mounts at rear deck for those grilling times. Captains bench and 2-rear seats have new upholstery; cabin upholstery and carpet in excellent shape. No leaks inside the cabin or engine compartment; the cabin smells of sunblock not mold! EVERYTHING WORKS! Boat comes with live well, extra prop, mooring cover (not shown), full storage cover, 2-biminis with full like new storm gear and many, many accessories/extra parts not listed. Tri-axle trailer has ST rated tires, fresh brakes and bearing buddy axle lubrication points. We bought this boat in AZ. 1988 from the original owner and since it has been stored under cover and then in a climate controlled shop since we brought it to AR. in 2000. The original owner did make occasional trips to Mexico, thus the anti-fouling paint which is a great process for those who dock for extended periods-we had a fresh coat and a beaching strip applied recently. We discovered that despite his rinsing after every use, anything that the salt water touched was deteriorating, thus the complete replacement of every metal part that came in contact. This boat is turn key ready to take any trip you can dream of for it's size. It has never let us down and taken on the biggest storms that the big lakes can deliver (within reason, of course!). Put the stern planes down and drive in to the wind/waves and run the storm! We have loved every moment of owning this boat; sharp contrast to the cliche of the best days of owning a boat! We are anxious to find a buyer that will appreciate and use this boat for it's full potential. It catches the eyes of those at the dock and on the water as it glides along.
