We ruled out the 25 Outlaw, it has the same deck space as a 23 Outlaw. Where it is bigger is the cuddy.

Whenever the seller calls we are going to look at the 280. If we don't like the 280, I think we might wait and see what hits the market when it gets warmer.

Keep in mind like myself I have a Baja forsale right now come April I'm pulling it off the market due to warm weather and the lack of replacement boats that will be available. The good deals go fast once warm weather starts hitting the really good deals are now. Usually people discount they're boats for winter sale knowing people aren't looking hard. Something to keep in mind.

If not this winter, then next...There is always that last minute trade. If not my boat works fine, even though I want larger.

if the 280 has the same pad as my 320 it will never be great over 70mph it gets a little unstable and needs to be trimmed in to be comfortable. The engine access in the 320 is terrible. Overall it is a good value a lot of boat for not much $$. I think they look good as well.

We love the look, speed is not a concern. From what I have heard these motors top at 65-68 stock. I like the price, still waiting for the seller to contact me.

Should this not fit us, we are looking at a 96' 275.

Well 62 keeps me running with the pack... Yes it is running 23p Mirage props, I am not sure if that is turning in or not.


Should I buy it, I will keep that in mind.

My brother inlaw has an 89 280 with some big power and it will GPS at 93. It was pretty stable with the kiefer tabs.

thats good to know. I have 330's with prochargers est 460hp. In the garage I building some 572's 725hp. I was thinking of saving for the "next boat". Back to the subject of buying the 280 I say go for it and have a great summer.

I am having a hell of a time getting in contact with the owner through GSC.

That makes me mad also, I am always buying stuff, I HATE when people don't get back to me, I will have cash waiting and they lose a deal because of no contact! Pizzes me off!

Good luck.... I still think you should look into the one in Alabama I posted, i would bet it is worth the call/trip!!
