first impression, i kind of like it. Glad to see that Sea Ray is ditching that silly reverse sheer, stuff the bow in the first 4 footer for the sake of styling... this boat as decent freeboard!

it's got nice side decks, a real bow area where you can stand, sit, etc...

that said, teh flybridge and the aft deck seems small for a 75 footer, probably the price paid for the sleek house/bridge design.

Manns? not my favorite... i would have like to see Cats

and where do you store the tender? do you ruin the swim platform? if up on the bridge, then it will make the FB real small for a 75 footer.

wonder if it's going to be produced considering the state of the boating industry...
 
I don't see how you can tell if the side decks are a good width? I sure can't tell that from the photos? If you want to see really nice side decks look at the 65' or larger Marquis. It does have nice lines but no Bow Seats either? So when r u trading? I want a ride :)
 
That has got to be one of the nicest looking SR designs I've seen! Modern and definitely euro looking interior it seems but it looks pretty good. Looks a lot nicer than the meridian 501 sedan renderings I posted a few weeks ago. I'd imagine they'll put the tender on a hydraulic swimplatform? Definitely no room for a tender and davit on the bridge.
That being said, doubt it will be made any time soon!!
 
putting the tender on the swimplatform is a compromise you put up with on a small boat... when you get into the 50, 60, 70'+ range you really dont' want to sacrifice the swimplatrom to hold the tender. you either stuff is in a garage (good bye crew quarter or ER space) or you lift it up to the boat deck, at the back of the flybridge

now, when the designers try to make a very sleek boat and pull the flybridge way aft, as on this boat, you end up with no boat deck.

then what?
 
The small and med. sized boat markets are hurting. The larger boat market isn't.
Maybe Searay is thinking about going bigger to target the folks with more disposable
income.
 
i think it holds 30 gallons of freshwater.... just kidding!

Pascal, that very first rendering almost looks like there is a tender rb2@gr5t the aft section of the bridge but obviously it's not in any of the other renderings.
Perhaps this would be a suitable tender???

If I had the funds to order this one, I would ditch the crew quarters in favor of a garage for the tender & water toys. If you can afford this one "stock", you can afford it "custom".
 
looks like the new viking sport cruisers, and the azimuts and etc...

not overly crazy about the looks...
 
Seriously, how big is the water tank?

I've been told that can be a deal breaker on this type of boat.

;)
 
I'm not gone on this one. Too swoopy. It looks like a giant stepped on it, especially in the profile given in the Version 1 rendering.

Also I'm not impressed with the big colonial windows in the hull.
