Sea Ray gets points for the warm beige color of the dash that not only eliminates reflections in the swept-back windshield, but is easy on the eyes on bright days. The helm area is raised above the cockpit level, with a comfortable swivel seat for the skipper and a double-wide companion seat nearby. Touch it, and the entire aft bench seat folds neatly out into a big sun pad, and just as quickly returns to a seating role. Many builders have cockpit lounges that convert to sun pads, but Sea Ray did away with all the struggle of filler panels, support legs and extra cushions with a single button. ![]() A complete wet bar is standard on the port side, with refrigerator, ice maker and stowage for bottles and glasses. The wrap-around seating in the aft area is divided into two L-shaped lounges, so guests can move around without having to climb over other knees.
