Stuart

1997 Sea Ray Sedan Bridge 550

Twin Detroit Diesel 6V92's 550hp with 1100 Hours

Introducing the Sea Ray 550 Sedan Bridge 1997 – an epitome of luxury, versatility, and impeccable design. A superior iteration of Sea Ray's earlier 500 Sedan Bridge model, the 550 stands out with its extended length and a host of enhancements that redefine the cruising and fishing experience. This meticulously crafted yacht boasts a larger cockpit, a feature that not only distinguishes it from its predecessor but also underscores its versatility as both a cruising vessel and a formidable fishing boat.

Built on a fully cored modified-V hull, the Sea Ray 550 Sedan Bridge showcases a 15-foot beam that, while moderate compared to some contemporary megabeam yachts, ensures stability and performance that meet the highest standards. The innovative design of the interior is a testament to Sea Ray's commitment to maximizing space without compromising comfort. Unlike most vessels of similar size, the 550 features a rare three-stateroom layout, a testament to the ingenuity of Sea Ray engineers.

Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a spacious and open salon, galley, and dining area seamlessly integrated for a luxurious and functional living space. The galley counter doubles as a convenient breakfast bar, adding a touch of practicality to the elegant design. Both heads in the Sea Ray 550 Sedan Bridge come equipped with separate stall showers, elevating the onboard experience. Additionally, the vessel is equipped with space for a washer/dryer combo conveniently tucked beneath the salon floor.

Venture topside, and the expansive flybridge of the Sea Ray 550 Sedan Bridge steals the spotlight. With abundant entertaining space, it invites you to host a small crowd while reveling in breathtaking views. A departure from its predecessor, the 550's cockpit is designed for serious fishing activities, providing enthusiasts with ample space and resources for their pursuits.

This particular Sea Ray 550 Sedan Bridge has undergone a recent partial refit, ensuring that it meets the highest standards of performance and luxury. The upgrades include new electronics, modern air conditioning units, fresh upholstery for both cockpit and salon seating, new mattresses, and state-of-the-art galley appliances. Every detail of this vessel has been carefully considered and upgraded to provide a sophisticated and comfortable experience on the water.

In summary, the Sea Ray 550 Sedan Bridge 1997 is more than a yacht – it's a statement of style, innovation, and versatility. Whether you're cruising the open waters or engaging in thrilling fishing adventures, this vessel promises an unparalleled experience, blending luxury with functionality in perfect harmony.
