200 Sundeck from '05. She is pretty loaded and only has 27 hours on the 4.3 MPI Alpha combo. Thought I would post some pics. Gonna be a VERY LONG winter.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Can't wait to drive her....Maybe..just maybe before I have to winterize.

Can't wait to clean her up and put a nice coat of wax on her

Nice looking boat. Is that carpet removable? You may want to take it out for the winter...

OTD was 25K.....Seems about right for this model equipped the way it is. Like I said, she only has 27 hours.

Yes the carpet is removeable and she will be washed and waxed, all upholstrey removed and cleaned real nice before storage.
The pics were at the stealership so she is not at my house yet.

Nice rig congrats :D

Suggestion: even though it will be in your yard, get insurance ASAP. A friend of mine has a Formula with a similar bowed window like yours. A branch fell on it over last winter and Formula wants 12,000 to replace the whole windshield. They won't just replace the one pane. He did not buy insurance :( which is probably less than $400 for a year on 25k.

It's gonna be a LONG WINTER for you now for sure :(

Re: Bought a Sea Ray...

You guys are great....full of awesome suggestions.

I secured insurance for the boat through the dealer who quoted me $340 for the full value and all the bells and whistles.


Is it Spring yet?

Nice boat. I do hope you can get her out at least one time this year or like you say it's gonna be a long winter.

Either way you have something to look forward to next year, have fun.

Heh...same here dood...we ordered our '08 sea ray sport 205 this past saturday, boat will be at the dealer in about 6 weeks or so. Loooooooong winter ahead of me too!

Luckily, I have a 4 car garage, and the boat is going in one of the bays, so we can "play" in the boat all winter long, and pretend. I can legally consume mass amounts of carbonated alcohol in this way, at least!:D

Re: Bought a Sea Ray...

We Love our Sundeck. We have an 03 with 110 hours on it. Just some words of advice.

The flip up chair on the port side Protect the Vinyl that it rubs against. That metal is sharp and will start sliceing.

The cooler thats under the Helm. Dont order it from Sea Ray. They make a nice Coleman that fits it.

This is a heavy boat and trailer setup. Dont try and pull with a Envoy or Trailblazer. You really need a full sized SUV or Pickup. The NADA says about 3500lbs but, when gas and trailer and toys your actuly looking at around 6000 Lbs.

Enjoy the boat this is one of the most saught after deck boats on the market.

That is a nice boat. I normally don't like the look of deck boats but that one is really sharp!
