Overview
2002 Sea Ray 480 Motor Yacht – Brand New Yacht Controller!
“Excitable Buoy” is a well-kept and highly updated 2002 Sea Ray 480 Motor Yacht that stands out for her freshwater history through 2025, low engine and generator hours, and substantial recent investment in mechanical service.
A major highlight is the recently installed Yacht Controller Optimo system (approximately a $15,000 upgrade, installed October 2025), dramatically improving close-quarters maneuverability and docking confidence.
In Summer 2025, the boat received comprehensive professional engine service including turbo work, exhaust manifold service, oil and filter changes, fuel filters, impellers, belts, CCV filter replacement, anodes, and transmission oil service. Supporting documentation includes receipts, a March 2025 pre-purchase survey, fluid sample analysis for the engines, transmissions, and generator, as well as propulsion inspection reports.
Powered by twin Cummins 630HP diesel engines with approximately 1,345 original hours and paired with a new Westerbeke 12.5kW generator showing approximately 549 hours, this 48MY is well-equipped and ready to cruise.
Highlights:
- Low hours on the twin 630hp Cummins diesels (1345h) with extensive recent maintenance
- Low hours on the newer Westerbeke 12.5kw generator (549h)
- Freshwater-kept vessel with only one prior owner
- Yacht Controller Optimo system (approximate value $15,000)
- Highfield 340 Hypalon center console tender with 25HP four-stroke Yamaha outboard included (approximate value $15,000)
- Electric swim platform
- Vetus bow thruster
- New Batteries: 2x 8D Dual Purpose AGM start batteries and 2x Group 31 AGM house batteries (5/2025)
- All lights changed to LED
The Sea Ray 480 Motor Yacht remains one of Sea Ray’s most popular aft cabin designs thanks to its spacious three-stateroom layout, wide side decks, hardtop-covered aft deck, and comfortable cruising accommodations. The large aft deck is ideal for entertaining and features air conditioning, a wet bar, stereo system, and molded staircase access to the swim platform. The electric swim platform carries the included tender and outboard.
Inside, the salon features rich cherry cabinetry, opposing seating, an entertainment center, and abundant natural light. The galley offers generous storage and functionality with a full-size Norcold refrigerator/freezer, Kenyon three-burner stove with ceramic glass cooktop, Sharp Carousel II microwave/convection oven, coffeemaker, molded countertops, and a Splendide 2000 washer/dryer combo (below the stairs).
Accommodations include:
• Full-beam aft master stateroom with queen berth and private ensuite head/shower and a vanity
• Forward VIP stateroom with island berth and direct head access
