If it is built like any of the junk they have been putting out the last few years, it will be a pile of ****. Their build quality has been terrible. I hope they decide to stop cutting corners before it's too late

Interesting to see so many positive comments on OSO about an outboard powered bow rider. Have you all gone soft overnight? 🙂🙂

Seriously, I like outboards and I like Sea Ray (I’ve owned 3 of them) but I don’t like the new designs. The interiors look nice but I much prefer the older design Sundancer with the long foredeck and the open cockpit that still feels like you’re outside and on a boat!

I think Sea Ray died a little bit when they dropped the true Sundancer a few years ago, in favor of a bow rider/crossover style. I’m sure it was an educated and market driven decision but hey, you can’t please all the people all the time……

Disappointed…….RR

Cove neighbor bought a 32 new in 18. Nothing but problems. Took almost 3 years to iron out most of them. Electronic dash had to be replaced twice. Actually had 2 guys from Factory come down and work on it too. Still haven't fixed the fuel fill. It will kick off the pump due to like full. PIA to fill up.

So many nice things about this boat, but I think you nailed it about the aesthetics.

Boat will check a lot of boxes for a lot of people but at 750K++++ MSRP it needs to!

The glass can be tinted if it is too much light/glare whatever but it may hurt your night time usage. I would also worrying about pounding around in a 20K lb boat like it is a sport boat, how long before that glass cracks? The shade is priceless, the ventilation looks good and if not then the a/c will keep it cool at the helm.

With the hull and deck joint so close to the water at the stern how does Sea Ray join and seal the two parts ?

Agree with some of the comments, but 50mph for a 39ft cruiser with outboards is smoking fast and kind of outweigh's all the negative comments in my opinion.
