Default 1990 300es opinions?

Any opinions- good, bad or other on a 1990 300ES with 454 mags? Any known issues, etc?

I do belive it is just a 280 after they included the swimplat in the length. Good boat, lots of room for the size. Should be close to 70 with the mags.

Nightlife,

In 1990 it was still a 280 ES, or re-named 280 Sport. There were a couple 300's built in 91' that never made the brochure from what I remember?? The 300 ES became the 320 in 91'.

Whiplash / Bill -

Its Wes W. My neighbor has Bob Lambiase old 91 or 92 280ES Red/White/Black with Red radar arch. Great boat and he has over 1000hrs with 454's. Boat will still run 70-72 range and crushes waves great and has tons of room in cabin & cockpit.

Been a great boat for him and he is thinking of selling his...but been such a great boat hard to part with it.

Boat is super easy to work on too with all the room.

I have a 1990 300ES I just recently purchased. I am doing a few projects to it for modernization. I will post pictures when my graphics guy is done and I get my refreshed steering wheel on it. Previous owner says it will do 70.

Mine is a 4 owner boat with the last owner having it 22 years. My boat is CLEAN and does not look like a 33 year old boat
