Description

New Canvas * Extended Platform * Survey * Rebuilt Outdrives

Four Winns 298 Vista offers a plush mid cabin express interior and a very comfortable cockpit area above decks. The 10’6” beam means you can enjoy stylish cockpit accommodations during the day and have lots of comfortable sleeping space at night. Need to go forward for docking, or just chill out on the foredeck sun pad? Molded steps and a walk-through windshield provide safe access. The extended swim platform is strong enough to carry a PWC, and it provides waterside seating space and room to BBQ. A built-in transom locker provides storage for power cords, BBQ's and a few toys. The U-shaped cockpit seating and refreshment centre provide a very comfortable above deck lounge area. Below decks there are double berths fore and aft, a convertible dinette lounge, well equipped galley and a stand-up head. A screened companionway door, two deck hatches and six opening portlights allow for plenty of fresh air through the cabin.

This Four Winns 298 features a brand new canvas system with crystal clear side panels, new Infinity woven vinyl cockpit flooring, and all the comforts needed for safe, comfortable cruising, including a generator, air conditioning and well appointed galley.  The XDP outdrive lower units were rebuilt in 2023 by a certified Volvo Penta technician at a cost of $21,500.  A 2024 survey is available upon receipt of an accepted offer.
