Description
The Sea Ray 540 Motor Yacht is an exceptional choice for those who appreciate spacious, luxurious accommodations combined with the spectacular ease of handling that comes with a bow thruster. Powered by reputable twin Caterpillar 3196 marine engines, this yacht offers confidence and reliability underway. With three large staterooms, an overall length of 55 feet, and a cruising range approaching 400 miles, the 540 is equally suited for long-range cruises or memorable day trips. She reaches a max speed of 31.6 mph at 2280 rpm, while a comfortable cruising speed of 25 mph extends the range to over 450 miles. Throttling back to 13.5 mph maintains planing speeds with impressive fuel efficiency, and slowing down to 7.5 mph leaves almost no wake, making it ideal for whale watching and coastal sightseeing.
The yacht offers a large interior with space for family and friends to gather while still providing room to spread out and enjoy the journey. A spacious salon and galley create a comfortable environment for relaxation, complemented by wraparound windows that deliver breathtaking 360-degree ocean views from the comfort of the interior. Below decks, three staterooms and two heads offer privacy for everyone on board, while a washer and dryer support extended cruising with ease. Your guests will appreciate the luxurious overnight accommodations when you invite them to share the experience.
The fully enclosed upper bridge is another standout feature, featuring a beautiful helm station, full wet bar with fridge, fold-down lounger, large dining table, wraparound seating, an additional freezer for the day's catch, and strata glass windows replaced in 2019 for crystal-clear views. It is a fantastic space for entertaining or relaxing while watching whales pass by.
SON SEEKER IV has been well cared for by her current owners and is in very good condition. When new, these vessels were listed at $1.8 million CAD, reflecting the high quality and exceptional design of the 540 Motor Yacht series. She is a remarkably well-equipped, luxurious motor yacht that anyone would be proud to own. If you are looking for an eye-catching yacht with all the comforts of home, you need to see this boat.
