Hey everyone, I am a new owner of an older Sea ray 20 foot open bow. We had her out today and it was beautiful! My question is, does anyone know or know where I could find the exact year, make and model based on the number on the back? The guy I bought it from said it was an 84, but I would really like some details. #SER1A0490682-197842

Any info is greatly appreciated! I'll even buy you lunch next time your in town

i'm thinking it could be an 82, but not sure about that, look on Sea Ray web site , they have past models there , pics would be good. WELCOME TO CSR

Thank you all! She is a clean old boat, and to me there is just something special about these older vessels. So I now know that I have a 1982 20 foot sea ray that was manufactured in Phoenix. Cool.
Any other info is welcomed! This is a cool group. Glad to be here!
I will get some more pix up soon.

I know what you mean I love the look of the older Sea Rays they just have slick lines to them congrats on the toy and have fun !

We are having a ton of fun with it. I have owned multiple "newer" boats, but have always wanted an old sea ray. Cost was not even a factor, I just think they are solid and dependable (as far as boats go):grin:
