Four Winns Sundowner 285 Twin Engine Mercruiser Bravos

Four Winns Sundowner 285

28.5 feet long, with swimming platform its 30ft
Great family boat all maintenance done and ready for summer
The perfect summer day boat for Pitwater / Sydney Harbour
Twin Engines bring speed (top of about 60km/hour)
Reach all parts of Pittwater fast and drop anchor close to the beach
We have owned her for six years, and undertaken all regular maintenance and some nice upgrades
She's a very tidy and nice looking example of this great boat
Work travel combined with our kids now grown up means we're not getting the usage to justify keeping her

- Last slip and antifoul (Nov 2024)
- Legs full service (Nov 2024)
- Motors service (Nov 2024) including manifolds and risers

Some notes:

- In 6 years we never used the toilet, when we bought it it was working but we never wanted to empty the holding tanks so we didn't use it
- There's a full set of clears and camper covers, we took them off because they were ugly and we only used the boat as a day boat, they are looking a bit old but usable, and good for templates if you want new ones to be made
- It's an old boat and some things aren't working, they need attention:
-- The front windless (anchor winch) works but the electrics don't - unsure what needs to be done (we just lower anchor manually)
-- The bimini and cover is ok but showing age, it was next on the list to replace but you could get another 1-2 seasons out of them, we just wash and waterproof them annually
-- Fridge works, but like the toilet we didn't use it much and we always took an Esky from home for the day
