DESCRIPTION:
This 2004 Sea Ray 480 Sedan Bridge, Big G, is a prime example of one of Sea Ray’s most popular and well-balanced cruising yachts. Featuring twin Cummins diesel engines, bridge air conditioning, TNT hydraulic swim platform, and the highly sought-after dark cherry interior with clear, haze-free cabinetry, this is the configuration Sea Ray 480 buyers actively search for.
Big G has benefited from significant mechanical, electrical, and cosmetic upgrades in recent years, making her an outstanding turnkey opportunity. Coolers and aftercoolers were professionally pulled, flushed, and cleaned in October 2024. Multiple major systems have been updated, including air conditioning, batteries, chargers, underwater gear, and interior finishes.
Recent highlights include new carpet throughout (2025), bottom paint (2025), cutlass bearings (2025), props tuned, balanced, and treated with PropSpeed (2025), and new Strataglass panels forward on the bridge (2025). The salon air conditioning unit was replaced in 2024, along with both potable water pumps. All routine maintenance has been kept current, and zincs are serviced every six months on the main engines.
With 300 feet of anchor chain, a new anchor and swivel (2024), updated through-hulls and strainers, and a strong maintenance history, Big G stands out as a well-cared-for Sea Ray 480 ready for immediate cruising.

Broker RemarksBig G shows extremely well for a 2004 Sea Ray 480 and checks all the boxes buyers ask for: Cummins power, bridge A/C, hydraulic swim platform, and dark cherry interior with no hazing. Owner has been proactive with maintenance and upgrades, not reactive. Major items such as coolers/aftercoolers, underwater gear, batteries, chargers, A/C systems, and interior soft goods have already been addressed.
This is not a deferred-maintenance boat. Carpets are new, bottom is fresh, running gear is serviced, and systems are current. Easy boat to show, presents clean, and surveys should reflect the level of care. Strong candidate for buyers comparing multiple 480s.
