About the Sea Ray Sports Yachts

Living the dream on the open water

If you are familiar with Sea Ray, then you may know that they have a variety of boats for sale which are in the 19 to 35 foot range. The boats are primarily for the angler and for the social activities for small families. What you may not know is that Sea Ray also has a line of larger boats which reach up to 52’ long. The Sea Ray Sports Yachts for sale are among some of the more luxurious models on the market, combining speed with design and performance. Should you be in the market for a sports yacht, here is what you should consider about the Sea Ray sport yacht selection.

The Design

The Sea Ray Sports yachts are designed for transportation and for leisure, meaning that the vessels are oriented to those who will be spending days upon them. Therefore, a focus on the interior as well as the exterior has been taken to ensure that while aboard the yacht, a person feels at home. This focus on design is combined with the standards of Yacht manufacturing, such as the ISO Certification on the facilities, and several (the company boasts of having more than any in the world) awards for their brand.

Specific to the Sea Ray Sports yacht boats for sale, you will find that the design is very much bow oriented. By this it is meant that the console, the main features, and the cabin are all designed to be contained in the bow and directly under the console (for the cabin) with little focus on the stern. The cabin  does reach back a bit under the deck, and while this does help with the weight disbursement and gives the boat a unique aesthetic from the panoramic windows, it also limits the overall space to the front. And as the boat tapers in on the bow, one may find in the Sea Ray 400 that the space is a bit congested. In the larger Sea Ray 520 Fly this would not be much of an issue.

What have they done with the Stern?

The design has not abandoned the stern, but has used that space as a leisure deck space. The Sea Ray sports yachts are open concept on the stern and as the engines are inboard, this allows the vessel to have a lookout area, sunbathing, or just a spot to sit and enjoy the waves as they roll in. Of course, the seating and the material package plays a big part in the overall ambiance, but even with the standard features and lighting, the overall design of the Yachts is stunning and effective.

Models

There are 4 sizes which are offered for the Sea Ray yachts for sale. These are the Sea Ray 400, Sea Ray 460, Sea Ray 510, and Sea Ray 520. All of the models are offered in the standard model as well as in the Fly model. Additionally, Sea Ray has started to allow for potential buyers to “make their own boat”, using the models and sizes as a starting point and then adding features and functionality to meet his or her sea needs.

The base price for the 400 Sea Ray sport yacht is $707,453. This is without configuration and features. The Sea Ray 460 base is $1,004,768, the Sea Ray 510 model starts at around $1.3 million, and the Sea Ray 520 depending on the features can run from $1.5 to over $2 million.

New model availability

One of the problems that new boat seekers find is that the 2017 and the 2018 models for the Sea Ray sports yachts are hard to find. This should be a testament to the quality of the boats. Sure, you can go to a boat show and find the hull on display and place an order, but there is no guarantees that your boat will not be on back order for a while. Again, this is one of the more popular yachts on the market. If you wish to buy a Sea Ray sports yacht without the wait, the best option is to seek a 2015 to 2017 model from a private lister.
