    1997 xb2003 280ss



    I'm the original owner of a 1997 XB 2003. I re-powered it in 2012 with a 2005 280ss with 35 original hours since first owner bought new. It now has 71.1 total hours. I did the leak down this week as per pictures. The motor has never been apart. I had Brucatto do the injectors when I bought the motor and again last year. I upgraded to the Allison hydraulic steering, added the skid planer and the manual trim indicator. The boat has a hydraulic jack plate but I set the motor 1/4 below the pad and tightened up the bolts for conservative safety reasons. I converted the original drum surge brakes to Disc. Bow and dash have Lowrance color gps fish finders. Packages includes a 2nd Johnson trolling motor. I bought it used for a back up but never had to use it. I have a 2nd used stock 26 Trophy for a back-up. The boat has not been abused or damaged. It has a few very small nicks below the rub-rail from lures and that's it. The rub-rail is original and flawless. The boat has never in its life been drug up on a beach as can be seen in the pictures. The pad and lip are stock and flawless as per pictures. I used the bench seat a few times. The rear sit-down seat has never been used. The Carpet has a season left in it but it will need to be replaced. I only used the two buckets. The bucket covers have no tears or holes but as you can see they show their 20 year history. I have both bike seats and pedestals. One is good and the arm broke off the 2nd one. The boat runs 89mph fully loaded with 2 anglers with a 26 Trophy. Life for me has gone in another direction and I just don't have time to go fishing anymore. I would like the boat to go to someone that will appreciate what a rare and unique package this is.


    25k or best offer, Thanks, Allen
