The Maxum 3500 SCR Express is a well-built, spacious and luxurious sports cruiser in excellent condition, with a rigid solid construction, where hull and deck are bolted together. The deck is made of fiberglass to the bulkheads, which means there is no flex or stress. The combination of its wide beam and ample depth ensures that headroom, freedom of movement, light, and ventilation are not compromised.
The galley is uncluttered, and there is a dinette opposite with seating for four or five. The head and shower are roomy with full headroom, and there is an excellent forward double with storage under the berth. The midships cabin has walk-in access with a hanging locker opposite the double berth.
There is a wet bar and ice maker on the starboard side upon entering the cockpit. The two-tiered cockpit is fantastic, seating for 12 on the U-shaped lounge, which can convert to a large sun pad if required. The cockpit has near-new carpeting and plush upholstery throughout, with covers and clears.
On the upper level, the starboard side helm position is high, with excellent vision, and there is a sun lounge to port. The wide beam of the boat allows it to be stable at anchor. Under power, acceleration is smooth, with good throttle response, and it planes around 14 knots with the hull level.
The boat is powered by twin 8.1- litre 496 Mercruisers onto Borg Warner V drives. It has an immaculate engine room, electric hatch, and an approximate fuel capacity of 910 liters in two tanks. The boat has a maximum speed of around 34 knots, depending on conditions, and a cruise speed of 18-20 knots. The boat is propelled by a shaft drive and has a Kohler genset.

The boat has two cabins and four berths, with two to three convertible dinettes, an H&C interior shower, an H&C cockpit shower, and a vacuflush toilet with a holding tank.
