2005 Crownline 270CR with Trailer
2005 Crownline 270CR — Freshwater Cruiser with Cabin, Galley & Trailer | Northern Boat Brokerage
Overview
The 2005 Crownline 270CR is a well-built mid-cabin cruiser that delivers comfort, performance, and versatility on the water. Powered by a 320 HP MerCruiser 6.2L MPI with a Bravo III dual-prop sterndrive, this boat has spent its entire life in fresh water — a significant advantage for any buyer on Lake Erie. At just 559 engine hours, the drivetrain has plenty of life left.
Crownline's fit and finish is evident throughout. The cabin layout is practical and comfortable, the cockpit is spacious and well-organized, and recent updates make this a ready-to-go package. A 2017 Load Rite trailer with 8,400 lb capacity is included.
