Sealine 260 / 270 Feedback please

[Mymobo]

Hi,

We are looking to upgrading to a larger boat and wanted to know what the Sealine 260 / 270 (1992 to 1994) are like to own? Due to budget restrictions we have to opt for the twin petrol version most seem to be fitted with Volvo SP250 4 cylinder. What sort of performance and fuel consumption can we expect?

Any feedback on this boat would be welcome.

Thanks in advance

Hi
Never owned one myself but had one berthed next to me for a couple of years. I am a fan of Sealine because you get value for money. The 260 next to me was a few years old but still looked good and didnt give the owner any major problems over the years and he enjoyed it. The engines had a decent amount of hours on them but still ran well. HOWEVER, he did always moan about the cost of running it on twin petrols, I think that this was the reason he finally sold it.
Dont what to be a spanner in the works, but I would definitely check out the running costs.
