Frequently asked questions
Who owns Sea Ray?
Brunswick Corporation has owned Sea Ray since 1986, when founder C.N. Ray sold the company for $350 million. The brand operates within Brunswick Boat Group and is headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee.
What is the Sea Ray Sundancer?
The Sundancer is Sea Ray's cabin cruiser line, introduced in 1975. Current Sundancers are 32 and 37 feet with overnight accommodations; larger versions built in earlier years, up to around 60 feet, are widely available on the used market.
Does Sea Ray still build large yachts?
No, the current range tops out around 40 feet with models like the SLX 400. Sea Ray today builds SPX and SLX sport boats, SDX deck boats and two Sundancer cruisers; bigger Sea Rays trade secondhand.
Founded in Detroit in 1959, Sea Ray is an American builder of fiberglass sport boats and cruisers, owned by Brunswick Corporation since 1986. Its Sundancer line, introduced in 1975, set the pattern for the American express cruiser.
From Ray Industries to Brunswick
Cornelius (C.N.) Ray, known in the industry as Connie, started the company as Ray Industries and built its first fiberglass boats at a plant in Oxford, Michigan. He ran it independently for 27 years before selling to Brunswick in 1986 for $350 million. Sea Ray has operated inside Brunswick Boat Group ever since, with headquarters in Knoxville, Tennessee, and Bayliner as a sister brand in the same group.
Current Sea Ray models
Today's catalog counts about 26 models in three groups. SPX sport boats run 19 to 23 feet and the SLX series stretches from 26 to 40 feet; SDX deck boats cover 25 to 29 feet; Sundancer cabin cruisers at 32 and 37 feet handle overnight trips. Nothing in the new range passes 40 feet, the length of the SLX 400. The larger Sundancers and sport yachts Sea Ray built in earlier decades now change hands on the used market instead.
Sea Ray on the used and charter market
That used market is deep. Sundancers such as the 40, the 48 and the 510 appear constantly in brokerage listings. On GetBoat, Sea Ray listings split between charter boats and brokerage sales, and Sundancers from 40 to 60 feet are the most common models among them.
