Last fall I located a beautiful 2009 H260. It was a LONG winter waiting for a seatrial but last week I took ownership and can't wait for the warm weather!

The boat has a Volvo Penta 5.7GXi 320 hp with only 225 hours. Spent the a good part of it's life in rack storage. The hull was recently buffed out so no dock rash at all. Came with bimini top ( complete with rear extension to cover all the way back to the rear of the cockpit), bow infill cushions, GPS, Bow & cockpit covers and full camper curtain enclosure. Previous owner was meticulous. She's in almost perfect condition. :D Time to update my signature I guess!

Very nice looking boat. Congrats on the purchase. Had to be a painfully long winter.

Awesome boat! I had been eyeing that one at MVM for a while last year, but the Mrs. was not having any part of it :?

Thanks All. We're psyched.

Now if the damned New England Weather would cooperate! It was warmer in March than it has been in April & May so far!
Hoping to get her wet in a week or 2.

NickH, I had the Mrs' blessings. :D We had a 19ft Campion that had very little freeboard. We had to pick & choose when we went out on the lake with that one. :( Wife was sick of that along with the fact we were limited as to who could come with us. Looking forward to being able to go out pretty much anytime we want and bringing friends! Maybe we will see you out there sometime. Feel free to say hi!

Welcome and Congratulations! We love our H250 (predecessor to your H260). Having made a similar jump in boat size, you're going to love the space and storage of the H260. Have fun and be safe!
