Sea Ray ranks highest in customer satisfaction in a recent JD Power report.


From the press release:
Express cruiser segment (24 to 33 feet)
With particularly high ratings in product quality, owner loyalty and dealer sales and service, Sea Ray ranks highest among express cruiser boats for a fourth consecutive time. Regal, with substantial gains from 2005, and Rinker follow Sea Ray in the rankings, respectively.

Coming from Newport, RI - A boating center of the world, I know boats.

They are nothing but a hole in the water to which you pour money into.

Sounds good!

Different people have different perspectives... I live to enjoy and I learn from my mistakes, if buying a boat is a mistake or not i'll be able to tell you next year after one year of ownership, one thing is for sure - you can't measure pleasure with money.

Very true! Good luck with the boat, I'm sure you'll really enjoy having one. Do take the saftey courses that the Coast Guard offers and be safe...

Wow, you must be a great paddler to keep that boat from tipping while moving along that vertical wall of water!

Does an 1986 MB 380 SEL counts? The hood does resemble a boat
