2002 Sea Ray 480 Motor-yacht Sold Boat in Tarpon Springs, FL US

Pilots' Discretion is undoubtedly the finest example of a Sea Ray 480 Motor-yacht on the market. She is practically a one owner vessel. The current owner purchased it in 2004 from the original owner who used it very little. The current owner is a true yachtsman and aircraft pilot. He has maintained and upgraded the vessel to assure safe and comfortable travels for him and his family while they cruised the Caribbean for over four years, as well as many other destinations. Pilots' Discretion is equipped with upgrades that you will rarely, if ever find on a Sea Ray. The exterior shines like new and the interior looks practically new as well, no embellishing... The over-all condition is remarkable. This boat will impress all who board, including the toughest of surveyors.
