510 FLY

[wrinvest01]

Hello All, This is my first post so please excuse me if I mess this up

I have under contract a 2016 510 FLY. I expect to be closing on it next week. There are a few options missing on the boat that I feel I want to source and install, if the price isn't crazy. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

In the master bedroom, the boat is optioned with the drawers on each side. I prefer the seating with table on one side and drawers on the other. We will not need that much storage for our intended use. Are original pieces like this difficult to source as new old stock or lightly used? Ive attached pics of the drawers I have the seating I prefer.

On the flybridge, my boat is missing the table and post closest to the cockpit as shown installed on another boat in the pic attached. I have found many websites selling tables for boats. The stainless steel post is the one that I'm unsure about. I want to make sure what I purchase fits correctly in the pre-existing hole. Any suggestions on where to track one down would be appreciated.

Hi Everyone. Any help tracking these items down would be greatly appreciated.

For large yachts like yours, items like the furniture you want were generally built specifically for the hull under construction and I doubt any spares were produced as there was no perceived need. Even if there were extra units, since Sea Ray got out of the large boat business several years ago, I imagine any stock would have been liquidated or just trashed. I think you will have to find a custom marine carpenter to build and re-configure your master.
The table post is probably a different story with several sources you might need. You might want to provide measurements for the existing attachment point.
https://flounderpounder.com/ specializes in brokering parts for used boats including Sea Ray. They procure excess stock and there is a chance they might have the pole and/or other parts you might need. If there were any factory extras, I think they might have them.
One more thought is that you should gather as much info as possible. There should be a Parts Manual for your boat at searay.com in the "Owners" area. It will have rudimentary drawings of most every part of the boat including options as well as Sea Ray part numbers. The description of each item is sometimes useful for web searching, SR part numbers not so much. You might also ask Sea Ray via the contact page for factory drawings of the areas you are interested in. They used to provide those readily but I'm not sure that is true today.

The 510 Fly is one of my favorite boats built by SR in the last few years they were building larger boats. I was able to crawl around on hull # 1 with the designer and Cap Rusty. Learned a lot about why choices were made. Just a beautiful boat.

One challenge you might run into is I don't think there were very many built. That translates into there will not be a lot of "hands on" knowledge about the boat.

I am not optimistic that you will find a "swap out" option. A lot of the cabinetry was assembled inside the hull during the manufacturing process. For what you want to accomplish - it may all be custom.
