maybe I misread the original post but I thought he said he was looking for a newer one in the 20s

Nope didn't misread.

Is it just a gel coat issue? I have been holding off on this one because i was afraid they would kill the resale if I ever had to sell it.

Paul, I know my 270 is older than what you are looking for but I'm willing to deal to move it. It doesn't have any stress cracks in the hull, it does have two stress cracks in the gunall above the rub rail straight up. I bought the 270 new but it was used by Power Boating Canada magazine for profile write-up and I wonder if they bumped something. Anyway, the 270 is solid, solid, solid.

If anyone is looking for a deal let me know!

my 280 had a 502 w/ Gil exhaust, roller rockers, labbed prop, 1' spacer, modified ecm and a k/N filter and I saw 69.5 gps, 67-68 gps all day long, That 280 in Omaha looks like a great deal,

Nada prices dont mean "chit" right now.......If you want to get out of it bad enough to move up to a bigger boat you will take a loss to sell it....My motto is "buy high sell low"......
