Looking at a 280ss Formula
Looking at a F280 SS 1995 twin 350 Bravo 3 with 2007 Trailmaster trailer. Boat has about 380 freshwater hours and looks good in pictures lol. Going to look at it this weekend and not being real familiar with this model would appreciate opinions / information.

I looked at a bunch last year. . . Ended up going with the 330SS instead. 1995 is the first year for the 280.
With fresh water use, check for blisters on the hull and moisture in the engine compartment bulkhead and the transom. You will want to test the WOT speed of the boat and engines . . . Should be around 48-50 mph. Also, do a compression test on the engines, based on their age.
Overall it is a nice boat. . . Good for day long outings and the occasional overnight.
