2018 Sea Ray L550

The 2018 Sea Ray L550 is a 55-foot motor yacht built to balance comfortable extended cruising with manageable handling. Twin Caterpillar C12.9L diesel inboards deliver 1,700 horsepower and feature direct drives, bow and stern thrusters, and joystick docking control at both the helm and in the cockpit for precise maneuvering. The engines had 570 hours of operation and received recent service including oil, filters, fluid, belts, and impellers.

The layout accommodates three staterooms and two heads, with a convertible salon sofa allowing the boat to sleep eight. The L550 features distinctive bow seating with opposing C-shaped lounges and folding backrests, a removable bow table, and a Mediterranean-style sunshade with four poles. The generous L-shaped cockpit sofa includes a Corian folding table and folds-down gunnel doors for easy docking access. Extended-range fuel tanks hold 800 gallons total, and a 29-kilowatt generator provides onboard power.

Onboard systems include full Raymarine electronics with dual GS165 plotters, p70RS autopilot, i70 depth display, integrated cameras, weather module, VHF, and 4-kilowatt radar. A SeaKeeper 9 gyroscopic stabilizer reduces motion. The boat carries a comprehensive entertainment suite: KVH TracVision satellite TV in all staterooms, networked Fusion audio in the bow, and additional 7.7-inch JL cockpit speakers. Climate control features upgraded air conditioning and heating, with recent replacement of a starboard guest stateroom compressor.

The hydraulic swim platform deploys to 1,000 pounds lifting capacity with self-folding steps and includes a 2023 Williams Minijet 280 tender. Other updates include new galley refrigerator and freezer, new engine display, helm window motor, and various system upgrades completed through 2025. Dark cherry high-gloss wood cabinetry, teak decking on the foredeck and swim platform, and underwater transom lighting complete the interior and exterior finish.
