My brother in law had a sea ray seville. I think the seville was their lesser line, and has been discontinued. That was not a good boat. Floor went soft quite quickly, and interior fit and finish was not very good.

Curious as to other boat lines out there are mostly junk. I know Bayliner has to be right near the top. Rinkers are not very good either. Any others that should be avoided at all cost?

lol hey if it wasn't a fishing version which very few were ever built i'd junk it but when sea ray built the Laguna and the Cuddy Fisherman they were looking out for us fisherman. this boat doesn't have the frills and plush interior it is a rough fishing machine full of live wells and even a built in ice machine. it has 5 live wells and a full transom well to hold your catch. it will take awhile but she will be solid and bloody with fish guts. for the newbies here's the last project i finished

We have a '77 24ft Sea Ray. It is a tank. I don't know what it weighs but I know it's all origional, still solid as a rock, and still running strong.

Up through the 80's SEARAY still made a good chopper gun boat. Back in the early 80's to seventies they built tanks that were meant to go through the waves by shear weight and size rather than deep vee. In the 90's is when the pencil pushers steeped in and decided to cut back on quality to make money. SEARAY was never known for there interiors, but they did build some good hulls for awhile.

my Sea Ray has bad stringers too most of the 86 to 94 Sea Rays seem to have bad floors and stringers but always have solid transoms you never hear of a bad transoms in Sea Rays.
