Unfortunately I think you'll have a tough time finding 280's that new since the factory was marketing and selling 290's in lieu of 280s starting in 2004. 280's were still available by custom order so there may be few out there but I don't know of any in the area.

Thank you for the info. The 260 I have concerns how they handle rough water. If there are any 29’ out there please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Contact Kenny at Let's talk boats. 407 402 0300. Kenny is near Olando and was the GM at Velocity. He is known for brokering Velocity boats. Besides being knowledgeable he is a straight shooter. Let him know what you are looking for and if he doesn't have will likely be able to find it.

PS you will love a 280 or a 290.
