Description
2011 SEA RAY 280 SUNDANCER | MERCRUISER 350MAG | 540HRS | BRAVO 3 DUO PROP | KOHLER 5KW GENERATOR | FULL ENCLOSURE | AC/HEAT | TRAILER | INNISFIL, ON
“Hakuna Matata” is a clean 2011 Sea Ray 280 Sundancer, well-equipped express cruiser that balances between performance, comfort, and manageable size. It’s an ideal step-up from a bowrider or a great option for buyers looking to get into overnight cruising without moving into a much larger boat.
Powered by a MerCruiser 350 MAG (300HP) with Bravo III duo-prop drive, the boat delivers smooth handling, confident docking, and cruising speeds up to approximately 28 knots. With around 540 hours, the engine sits in a healthy range for continued use.
The cockpit is designed for entertaining with wraparound seating, SeaDek flooring, cockpit table, wet bar with sink, and a Kenyon electric grill. A full canvas enclosure with screens extends the season, while the integrated swim platform with ladder makes swimming and boarding effortless.
Below deck, the layout is bright and practical with sleeping for four thanks to the convertible forward dinette/V-berth and aft cabin. The galley includes a refrigerator, microwave, cooktop, and stainless sink, while reverse-cycle heat and air conditioning are supported by a Kohler 5kW generator. The head includes a VacuFlush toilet, vanity, and shower.
Navigation is straightforward with a Garmin GPSMap chartplotter (new unit scheduled for Spring 2026 installation), VHF radio, and depth instrumentation. Safety equipment includes automatic fire suppression, dual bilge pumps, and carbon monoxide monitoring.
A tri-axle trailer is included, offering flexibility for transport or off-season storage.
