ShabahZ250 gets an upgrade...
Well, the time was ultimately bound to come. I've had my Z250 since 2006, and just recently it kept getting smaller and smaller, and spending the weekends on Lake Erie became more and more uncomfortable for my girlfriend and I. So I started the search.
Did I leave the brand and all my loyal friends & site members? Nope......
She's a one owner 1999 Z280 MCC that's loaded with every option available including A/C, Kohler Genset, full camper canvas that's never been used, stainless radar arch, gray water system, etc. She has all the original manuals, documents, and even the original bill of sale. She was originally purchased in Florida, and was used on Lake Lanier in Georgia. Owner babied it until he became unable to. It was an absolute steal, and I'll be doing some projects and upgrades over the course of the next few months. I'll also be adding some new resources to our "Mariah Manuals & Supplements" section. So keep your eyes out for new additions to the site as I start a new journey with this boat! 
Here she is at her new home in Sandusky Ohio, on Lake Erie.

Still have some learning to do as far as driving it at speed, as I've never had a boat with trim tabs before. What's surprising to me is that it's 3 ft longer, and about 3000lbs heavier than the Z250, and it's actually easier to maneuver. The Bravo 3 Duo-Prop is sweet...
