Activities to do with Sea Ray Boats

Sea Ray Boats needs little introduction as it is one of the top brands of luxury cabin cruisers, deck boats, and sport boats coming out of the United States. It was founded in 1959 by Cornelius Nathaniel Ray in Oxford, Michigan, and soon became a household name. Over the next few decades, Sea Ray and it's hard-working founder fine-tuned its models through innovative technologies as well as paying close attention to the likes, dislikes, and needs of its owners. Indeed, Cornelius (Connie) even asked General Motors for design advice to create boats as beautiful as the cars being produced in that era. The result was a brand that was a pioneer of its time that was producing 23,000 boats a year by the mid-1980s.

It was perhaps unsurprising, given the huge success of Sea Ray, that Brunswick Corporation offered $350 million for Sea Ray in 1986. Brunswick also purchased Bayliner, another key player in the industry, at the same time, making it the biggest producer of boats in the United States. Today Brunswick builds Sea Ray Boats from its headquarters in Knoxville, Tennessee, and maintains the same ethos of producing luxury, high-performance, technologically-advanced boats that it always did.

Sea Ray has an enormous number of models over the years, ranging from 17 to 65 feet, but today focuses on boats up to 40 feet. One of the most iconic and long-standing ranges is the Sundancer Series, as well as the L-Series. Throughout its decades of production, Sea Ray has always sought to push the boundaries, whether that was being one of the first to use fiberglass in its construction or pioneering integrated swim platforms into its molds.
