One of the things that's been on my bucket list for a while is to boat the ICW from Key West as far north as it will take me.  Probably not a great idea on our pontoon, so as a step in the right direction to "test the waters" (literally), we bought a 2000 Sea Ray Sundance 290.  We've had it for a couple of months and like most "pre-owns", there are a few mechanical things to be addressed, but fortunately nothing major.  We trailer the boat with a 2008 Dodge Ram 3500 dually and we've already had her in the Gulf of Mexico, the Atlantic, the ICW and the St. John's River.  Our latest trip was a long weekend from Halifax Harbor Marina in Daytona Beach, Fl to the St. Augustine Municipal Marina in St. Augustine, Fl where we stayed a few nights.  The next few years will be "practice" for us as we learn to sharpen our boating and navigational skills.  The 290 has twin Mercruiser 5.0 EFI's with Bravo II drives and a 5kw Kohler 5E generator.  It came with an outdated Garmin 2210, but it works for now.  The interior and exterior are in near immaculate condition and the motors look the same.  It appears the previous owners took very good care of her.  I'm looking forward to this forum.  I'm sure I'll need some good advice from those of you who have been Sea Ray owners for a while.  Here are a few pictures.
