WHAT OTHERS SAY

As the largest model in Sea Rays Sundeck line, the 290 is a prime example of the latest thinking in day boats. With nearly 30 feet to work with, the designers have incorporated everything a group of family and friends needs to spend a day on the water in comfort.

What we think:As the largest model in Sea Rays Sundeck line, the 290 is a prime example of the latest thinking in day boats. With nearly 30 feet to work with, the designers have incorporated everything a group of family and friends needs to spend a day on the water in comfort.

The open layout provides unfettered access, from the forward boarding ladder back to the extended swim platform on the transom. As might be expected with a boat this size, in-deck storage lockers are huge, and the passenger console opens to reveal a realistically sized head compartment, which has an opening porthole. Even more impressive is the compact cabin forward of the helm, which can convert to a full berth or provide a changing space with standing headroom. Order the gas grill and 12-volt refrigerator to complete the built-in wet bar and you have all the comforts of home.

Comfort is just half of the 290s appeal. Crack the throttle and this boat becomes a whole lot more than a floating pleasure patio. We found the hull to be remarkably stable under way, even while reaching speeds of nearly 50 mph with the 496 Magnum 375 hp engine. A 425 hp HO version is also available (which is the one installed on our boat!)

With crisp handling reminiscent of a smaller boat, and stable tracking that is minimally affected by weight shifts or chop, the 290 Sundeck is a boat thats as enjoyable to drive as it is to enjoy when hosting a party at rest.

Big and bold, the Sea Ray 290 Sundeck is loaded with amenities that are sure to keep any water-loving family happy. In fact, you might say this rig is large and in charge when it comes to on-the-water fun.

When folks step aboard Sea Rays 290 Sundeck, its sheer room will take them aback. At 29 feet, 6 inches in length and with an overwide 9-foot, 1-inch beam, the Sundeck provides plenty of space or people and gear. And with its luxurious amenities and sporty lines, boaters will live large and look good while doing it.

Fitted with a MerCruiser 496 MAG MPI HO (High Output) with an impressive 425 horse power our boat is way faster than the stock 496 which reached 30 mph in 9.5 seconds and topped out at 47.0 mph.

At the helm, instrumentation is minimal but complete, thanks to a multi-function SmartCraft display. A small berth beneath the helm console stretches forward under the starboard lounge. Across the way, a large head offers good interior space, though headroom is a bit low for 6-plus-footers. Cockpit seating features a starboard lounge and a wraparound bench, plus a rear- facing seat/sunpad that offers views of the swim platform.

..

When it comes to bowriders we all have some fond memories of a good day on the water but none of us have ever experienced a bow rider quite like this! The 290, Sea Rays biggest sundeck ever! The 296 length and 91 beam give the boat a solid big boat ride while still keeping to the nimble bow rider appeal.

The helm resembles that of a fine luxury car. Just opposite the helm is this neatly hidden private lockable enclosed head with sink making any day out on the water much more enjoyable for all aboard. The compartment is quite roomy and is nicely finished. Just aft of the head is a fore and aft facing double jump seat with the aft seat being perfect for a spotter to keep the captain informed.

The cockpit is perfect for entertaining thanks to the wet bar with an electric BBQ, a sink and faucet, trash receptacle, and a fridge beneath. The crew will be comfortable in the many cockpit lounge seats that stimulates conversation. Beneath the seating are large storage compartments for gear and lines.

Welcome toBoats International Group!

Headquartered in Pompano Beach Florida, Boats International Group is the operating enterprise behind the following brand names:

BOATS INTERNATIONAL BOATS.DE(Boats International, Inc.) AAA-rated boat dealership located in the heart of the Fort Lauderdale metropolitan area the undisputed Yachting Capital of the World.

Boats International carries predominantly new, pre-owned, and trade-in powerboats and cabin cruisers in inventory. The company recently doubled its showroom capacity which paved way for the introduction of the in-house brokerage & consignment division all under one roof. Larger vessels and yachts are docked with direct Intracoastal access for easy showings and sea-trials.

BOATEXPORT.COM(boatexport.com, inc.) U.S. premiere provider of boat & yacht export solutions for domestic and international buyers & sellers.

Importing a Boat to Australia

We have some of the best rates for RORO-shipping to Australia in the U.S. and we serve the ports of Brisbane, Adelaide, Port Kembla, Fremantle, and Melbourne. Whether you are a repeat customer or a first-time buyer, heres a few tips and reminders about buying, shipping, and importing boats and yachts to Australia from the U.S.

Finding the right boat.Buying a boat from another country often means dealing with people that you never met or dealt with in the past. Theres tons of free classified ads and Craigs list-type re-advertisers on the internet with deals just too good to be true. If it sounds too good, then, youd guessed it, it probably is a scam.

Do your research. Be realistic. Partner up with a Pro (like us).

We suggest you deal with us. Each week we get shipping, export, and certification inquiries from some of the countrys well respected marine dealers. We work in close cooperation with country-wide brand name retailers such as Marinemax and with the brand stores of Regal, Chaparral, Monterey, Bayliner, Larson just to mention a few.

We are a fully licensed Non Vessel Operating Common Carrier by the Federal Maritime Commission and as such we operate our own in-house shipping company. We have exclusive contracts with some of the largest steamship companies in the world. As one of the rather few NVOCCs we have the authority to buy and resell space on ocean-going cargo ships and issue our own bills of lading. What does tis mean for you? As an individual? Well, by contacting us directly you are likely to save considerable time and money by dealing directly with the contract holder (as opposed to a string of middlemen).

Buying a boat directly from us or through our brokerage divisionBoats International, Inc. is our own in-house discount boat dealership. We buy bulk trade-ins from the big retailers but we also buy from banks and individuals as well. For the past 20+ years our focus have been to absorb distressed inventory and floor-plan boats from cash-strapped dealers and resell these locally and overseas. As we now are completing our store expansion project (September, 2011) we will be able to take on even more inventory then in the past and also have space over to showcase brokerage and consignment boats.

Most of our international buyers rely on our reputation and expertise as a key player on the U.S. domestic and international boat market and they seek our help to source the boat(s) that they seek. If we do not have what they seek in stock well be sure to find it through our network of dealers and banks for the right money.

Whether your buying a stock boat from us or one from another dealer we are well equipped to assist you with every step from inspection to final delivery of your boat or yacht to Australia. For example we can help you or your client with:

Finding a Boat or Yachtthat meets (or exceeds) your requirements in terms of condition, equipment, and of course price

Negotiate the Deal(including but not limited to title searches, accident reports, previous owner status, etc)

Survey & Physical Inspection(we have a longstanding partnership with a number of accredited marine surveyors, mechanics, and experts in most regions of the country)

Closing the Dealwe often act as intermediary for international buyers as most of our overseas clients prefer only to work with one turn-key partner

Pre-shipping Logisticsonce the deal is done and the boat paid for we assist in coordinating haul-outs, marina loadings, boat ramp pickups and inland U.S. land transport/trucking through our in-house logistics company Boatlogistic.com, Inc.

Pre-Export Preparation Sanitation, Fumigation, De-gassing of refrigerants.Australia has (as you probably know already) very specific and strict import restrictions for boats and vessels. The governing body is the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) which is part of the Australian Governments Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. Depending on the geographical location of the boat and the required preparation of the vessel we can either prepare the boat for export to Australia while underway, or we can have it completed at our marina in Pompano Beach, Florida.

Australian Shipping Services Teamour Australian Shipping Services Team assist with Sanitize boats & yachts prior to port delivery AQIS will stop all boats that are dirty and soiled to check for insect/parasite infestations

Fumigation of boats and cradles according to AQIS-standard (Methyl Bromide 3.0 lbs / 1,000 cubic feet / 24 hrs) De-gassing of

Air-conditioning Systems (AC) Refrigeration HVAC HFC HCFC Providing HVAC Customs Certification

With our certificates our customer are NOT REQUIRED to obtain the otherwise very expensive Australian import licenses.

Trailer Import Permit AssistanceThe Australian Governments Department of Infrastructure and Transport requires that all imported boat trailers have an Import Approval. You can read more about the approval at the Departments website or you can download the .pdf-application Import a Small Road Trailer here.

Import Duties and Goods and Services Tax (GST)If youre buying a US-made boat, according to the United States-Australia Free Trade Agreement, you arent required to pay the 5% duty (as well supply the required waiver forms). You must, however pay 10% GST on all costs associated with the purchase of the the boat, ocean freight, duty, wharf charges, customs broker fees, and destination port fees..

ISPM-15 No Worries Mate We Fumigate All Wooden Cradles & Provide Proof of FumigationInternational Standards For Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15) is an International Phytosanitary Measure developed by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) that directly addresses the need to treat wood materials of a thickness greater than 6mm, used to ship products between countries. Its main purpose is to prevent the international transport and spread of disease and insects that could negatively affect plants or ecosystems. ISPM 15 affects all wood packaging material (pallets, crates, dunnages, etc.) requiring that they be debarked and then heat treated or fumigated with methyl bromide and stamped or branded,[1] with a mark of compliance. This mark of compliance is colloquially known as the wheat stamp. Products exempt from the ISPM 15 are made from alternative material, like paper, plastic or wood panel products (i.e. OSB, hardboard, and plywood).Customs Broker Fees & Destination Charges in AustraliaTheres tons of websites out there claiming to be the know-it-all for import questions concerning boats & yachts to Australia. Fortunately, we are not one of them. While we can recommend quite a few competent companies in Australia it is ultimately up to you to pick a customs partner in your home port. As is true for all facets of our business we believe that there are no shortcuts to sustained success in business (or life for that matter). That said we recommend that you seek the advice of an Australian Customs Broker who is licensed by the Customs Brokers and Forwarders Council of Australia Inc CBFCA-Australia Website to inquire about recent legal and import changes pertaining to your planned import.
