Enjoy comfortable weekends on the water aboard this well-equipped 2006 Cruisers Yachts 280 CXi Express. Combining sporty performance with practical cruising features, the 280 CXi offers the space and amenities of a much larger boat in an easy-to-manage package.
Powered by twin Volvo Penta engines with Volvo stern drives, this freshwater cruiser delivers confident handling and dependable performance. The addition of a bow thruster makes docking and close-quarters maneuvering significantly easier — a rare and highly desirable feature on a boat of this size.
One of the standout features of the 280 CXi is its thoughtful layout. The center walk-through windshield provides safe and convenient access to the bow, while the spacious cockpit offers plenty of seating for entertaining family and friends. Below deck, you'll find a bright and inviting cabin with accommodations for overnight cruising.

The interior of this boat presents exceptionally well. The upholstery is in very good condition and shows pride of ownership, creating a warm and comfortable space for relaxing after a day on the water. The cabinetry and finishes have also been well maintained and contribute to the inviting feel of the interior.
The camper enclosure is functional and provides excellent protection from the elements. Some of the clear vinyl panels are beginning to show their age and may eventually benefit from replacement, presenting an opportunity for the next owner to refresh the enclosure to their own preferences.
The Cruisers 280 CXi remains one of the most sought-after express cruisers in this size range thanks to its generous beam, practical two-cabin layout, and comfortable cockpit design. With the added benefits of a bow thruster, air conditioning and heat, and center walk-through access to the bow, this example offers features typically found on much larger vessels.
