Sea-Cluded Isle | 2007 Cruisers Yachts 280 CXi Express

Gananoque, ON, CA

About

The Cruisers Yachts 280 CXi is a mid-cabin cruiser with sporty lines and a versatile layout. A must see boat for the budget conscious boater.

The twin Volvo Penta 4.3L GXi engines provide plenty of power while sipping fuel. Shes built on a stable modified-V hull with a wide beam and moderate transom deadrise. The 280 Express is no slouch on the water. She surges onto plane quickly and easily, maintaining a smooth ride for everyone aboard and living up to her designation as a true performance cruiser.

The topside layout incorporates a double-wide helm seat, fore and aft facing cockpit settees with removable table, and unobstructed walkthrough to the helm and salon. The walk-through windshield with molded-in steps provides EXCELLENT easy foredeck access. The helm sits on a raised platform for great visibility while navigating. Additional features include a sport arch, transom door and swim platform with concealed boarding/swimming ladder.

Below, you'll find a head with shower, large aft cabin, good sized dinette, a galley with fridge/freezer, microwave, cooktop and sink, plus a queen sized sleeping area forward. The floorplan of the 280 is very open and airy with curtains (rather than bulkheads) separating the fore and aft sleeping areas from the main salon. The dinette converts into a double berth suitable for kids, and the galley is fully equipped for basic food-prep activities. The living space below seems to belong to a larger boat.

Testimonials

George Ayers was terrific to work with over the past few months as I evaluated, negotiated and purchased a CS 30 that Harris & Ellis Yachts had listed in Sarnia. He was patient, thorough and totally professional. I have owned nine sailboats in my 50+ years as a sailor. My experience with George and Harris & Ellis Yachts has been my best boat buying experience to date.

George did an amazing job of selling our CS 30 sailboat. A caring and compassionate person, he went above and beyond our expectations and never stopped working on our behalf to get the job done. We are forever grateful for his dedication to his work. Please let him know how much we think of him!

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Greg. Last October, my husband suddenly passed away due to a heart attack, leaving behind two boats. Greg was instrumental in helping me sell the first boat quickly and at a very good price. As for the second boat, due to my husband's declining health in his final year, the boat had been sitting idle at the dock near our home for over a year. Greg demonstrated the utmost professionalism in cleaning, maintaining, and preparing the boat for sale. He put in a tremendous amount of work, understanding the niche market for this boat, and always kept me informed of his progress without burdening me with the stress of the process. Last week, Greg successfully sold the second boat, and I am very satisfied with the price achieved. His professionalism and confidence in his work gave me a much-needed sense of security during such a difficult time.    

Thank you for all your work in facilitating the sale of our dad's boat. Jake and I really appreciate all the hard work you put into it with the many visits, paperwork, etc. A special mention has to go out to Grant for teaching me how to fold the sails!

As first-time boat buyers and as foreigners wanting to buy a cruising catamaran in the US, we knew we needed a reliable broker that had our best interests in mind. John Heintzman was just that, and more! He was extremely committed to understanding what we were looking for, gave great advice, and guided us through the purchase process with great patience and knowledge. All in all, we felt very well taken care of.

I feel compelled to reach out about the absolutely wonderful experience that I have had with Grant and Patricia Bowlby. I completed the purchase of a boat yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. They were so helpful, kind, and patient. This was my first experience with a broker, and I think I’ve found the best.

I can’t thank Ewan Campbell enough for the super job he did in selling G, making up for my lack of experience in this realm and patiently searching for just the right buyer and a win-win for seller and buyer alike.

It was a wonderful experience selling A with Jeff Cole’s expert assistance. Thank you for simplifying a complicated process. Your patience and kindness are especially appreciated.

I just wanted to thank Jeff Cole for all his hard work. He was very professional and effective.
