I remember I had posted a question about this model a year or so ago, but I can't seem to find it. It seems to be quite rare as far as a Sea Ray produced boat. The information I have found seems to suggest there were problems with the 3196 Cats when they were produced and one of our former CSR members "Mr. Salt" had his boat repowered under warranty to C-12s.
A new listing for a 540 CPMY just came up on Yachtworld in Vancouver. It just so happens this is the boat that I found a video of that was made in 2019 when it was sold to its current owners with the same broker. Here is the current listing on the Broker's site for 449,000 CAD (around $350,000 US):

And here is the 2019 Youtube video:

This is the only 540 CPMY listed for sale at the moment that I can find. I have never seen one of these boats in California. On the YW ad, it states the engines have 3600 hours on them with the starboard engine being rebuilt in 2020. Let me know your thoughts on it.
