Gve us the model and year of your Sea Ray and a few accolades you want to share.
 
.....it rocks! She has all of the luxuries of an expensive resort condo, she'll take me anywhere, she's sexy, and she's fast.

To me she's the perfect Sea Ray, perhaps the perfect boat for us considering our wide range of use (two days to two weeks spent on the boat at a time, big but not too big that you can't get into most anchorages & marinas - were not limited, quick so you can get where you need to go - cruises anywhere from 22-31knots, the boat is reasonable cost to run so you never have to double guess going anywhere, fantastic seaworthiness and performance - we don't have to worry about the weather, and it has all of the luxuries & comforts you'd expect of a yacht)

What stands out in particular on the 560 Sedan Bridge to us...

-the air conditioned bridge is fantastic if your into watching storms; if partying is your game the bridge will seat eleven people and there still room for a disco ball & smoke machine

-the front bedroom is huge; two people can change their clothes at the same time

-the doggies have their own private room

-the kitchen is large (two people can cook) and it isn't in the middle of a walkway so you can cook w/o tripping over the dogs

-six people can watch a movie in the Salon in extreme comfort; there's actually seating for as many as twelve people if you want to pile in all your friends for a movie (say a rainy night raftup)

-the third stateroom is like a walk in closet equipped with washer/dryer; great for week long trips

-the bilge is cavernous; tons of room to hide all the stuff you put in the basement at home that really should have been thrown out (maybe this is a bad thing for us)

-the engine room is very well layed out and everything clearly labeled; great for when you want to do maintenace, or great if you just want to sit there and think "when I was younger I would have only dreamed of having two of these engines"

-the aft cockpit is large & comfortable; fantastic when at anchor after grilling two rare pepered ribey steaks and microwaving a bowl of country crock butter mashed potates, while you drink a glass of Malbec as you lok out over the water admiring the beauty of the moons reflection and the stars in the sky

I could keep going and going...I do love my Sea Ray.

HA! It was sbw1... imagine that...

There are a lot of us in West Michigan who love our Sea Rays. We have spent the first summer with our boat and absolutely love it. I grew up always wanting a Sea Ray and I have not been disappointed with our previous boat or this one.
 
SeaRays have been in my family forever. I'm on my 4th. I really like the quality overall. It gets our family out on the water affordably.

LONG LIVE THE SEARAY!
 
2007 270 SLX

perfect size boat
plenty of storage
plenty of room for friends
windlass is a great time saver
water sprayers
navman is a fun pointless toy (still trying to figure out how to connect the navman to the smartcraft)
ladder is long
496 mag. sounds amazing through the corsa
sink is handy
push button engine start/stop
and it just cuts the waves like butter
 
It's shiny and has a toilet.

Like this one?

....like me, it is a bit older but classy and still in great shape. (so I stretched the truth a bit) :huh:
