POWERBOAT GUIDE DESCRIPTION: Sea Ray got it right with the 480 Sedan Bridge, one of the best- looking sedan cruisers of her era. Built on a fully cored hull with prop pockets to reduce the shaft angles, the 480 boasts a surprisingly large interior for a boat this size. Step through the sliding glass doors to a spacious salon with its electrically convertible sofa, dinette, and built-in entertainment center. Opposite, the large galley is designed with an island-style breakfast bar and under-counter refrigeration. There are three staterooms on the lower level including a full-size berth in the portside stateroom, twin bunks (and a washer/dryer combo) in the starboard stateroom, and a spacious master stateroom forward with an entertainment center. On deck, molded cockpit steps lead up to the bridge where wraparound lounge seating is located forward of an extremely well designed helm console. Additional features include high-gloss interior joinery, an extended swim platform, transom storage, wide side decks, and a fiberglass hardtop. Standard 535hp 6V-92 diesels cruise the 480 Sedan Bridge in the low 20s (27–28 knots top), and optional 660hp Cats cruise in the high 20s and top out at over 30 knots.
