Here up for sale is my Searay 268. It's a 1988 model and it has a 7.4 V8 petrol mercruiser engine paired with an Alpha One outdrive which as standard has heavy gearing compared to a modern day alpha, with power trim. Boat is located on the Great Ouse in Bedfordshire.It was out of the water over winter for maintenance and I stayed aboard most nights during the week with just a 1kw oil radiator and a dehumidifier. It was cozy enough, even in them freezing cold nights. So hence the reason I have wrote 'liveaboard' in the title. Unlike most sports cruisers this length (26 ft 8 inch) , the Searay 268 has a very clever lay out inside, with multiple options and lots of storage space. For instance you have a bedroom under the cockpit, a large bed in the bow which can also convert to seats, and then you still have a dining area and cooking/sink area. Just google 'searay 268' and you will find lots of pictures showing the layout on these American sports cruisers. These are classed as a 6 berth, as the dining area converts into a small double bed also. During maintenance the boat has had a new impeller in the outdrive, new trim cylinders and hoses, antifoul, etc. In November last year a whole new canopy and frame was fitted. Its got detachable blinds inside for privacy and it has a number of options. Also the boat has had a new boat safety done in May so it's near enough got 4 years remaining.The boat does not have gas at all. A microwave and camping stove does the job for me. It has a sea toilet which pumps to a holding tank, has a shower, hot water immersion tank which is heated by either 240 hook up or engine heat. It has a pretty new fridge with ice compartment, the fridge keeps your food/beer very cold. Also has gps depth sounder/feature finder, NASA battery monitors (good piece of kit), built in stereo, 240 outlets, consumer board etc. She runs lovely, and is ready to go. Feel free to ask any questions, as I have probably missed loads out . Has a full tank of petrol too!!
