Description
This 2004 Sea Ray 480 Motor Yacht offers an impressive combination of space, comfort and proven Cummins diesel power, backed by an extensive list of recent updates. Powered by twin 640 HP Cummins QSM11 diesels with service up to date, she has benefited from significant investment by her current owners over the past two seasons.
Recent upgrades include new Raymarine Quantum 2 Doppler radar and Axiom MFD, AIS, ICOM VHF, Starlink Mini and NEBO monitoring system. A new OSea 40-gauge canvas enclosure was installed in 2025, while both the forward and aft cabin air-conditioning units have been replaced along with the A/C recirculating pump. Both VacuFlush systems have also received recent attention, including a new aft head system and rebuild of the forward system.
Below the waterline, the bottom was media blasted in 2025 and refinished with two barrier coats of epoxy, two coats of Pettit bottom paint and new aluminum anodes. PropSpeed was applied to the running gear in 2026. Additional improvements include a rebuilt windlass with new motor, new microwave/convection oven, VersaChock davits and a 2026 ceramic coating. There is also a set of brand new 4 blade props. A bow thruster makes docking a breeze.
The Sea Ray 480 Motor Yacht remains a standout for buyers looking for true cruising accommodations without moving into a much larger yacht. With its expansive climate-controlled bridge, generous salon and well-designed stateroom layout, this updated 480 is well equipped for extended cruising, entertaining or spending the season aboard.
