Sea Ray L650 Fly: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Sea Ray L650 is a 65-foot luxury yacht designed with the owner-operator in mind, emphasizing ease of handling and high-quality components throughout. Featuring twin CAT C18 Acert engines, each producing 1,150 horsepower, the L650 combines powerful performance with advanced technology and thoughtful design to deliver a versatile and capable vessel suitable for offshore cruising.

Engine Room and Mechanical Systems

Accessed from the aft cockpit, the engine room of the L650 impresses with its spaciousness, offering clearance ranging from 4 feet 1 inch to 4 feet 10 inches as one moves forward. The twin CAT C18 Acert engines are flanked by fuel tanks on either side, with dual fuel filters allowing for on-the-fly changes. A substantial 27.5 kW generator is standard, necessary to power the dual Seakeeper gyros also included as standard equipment. The battery management system is centralized and robust, utilizing NICAD batteries for ship and engine start functions, reflecting Sea Ray's commitment to premium components.

Helm Stations and Navigation

The L650 features a standard lower helm station located on the starboard side, equipped with a pair of custom-embroidered Stidd helm seats that include flip-down armrests and footrests. The helm is outfitted with all-glass Raymarine displays, including the hybrid E125, depth gauge, compass, CATmarine displays, and fuel indicators. The flybridge helm is positioned to port and offers an optional Raymarine glass dash with engine and fuel gauges prominently displayed. Maneuvering is enhanced by digital engine controls, joystick, and thruster controls, providing precise handling in tight quarters. Additionally, an integrated camera system offers a bird’s-eye view with proximity rings at 5, 10, and 15 feet, aiding in docking and close-quarters navigation.

Dimensions and Performance

The L650 measures 65 feet 1 inch overall with a beam of 17 feet 2 inches and a draft of 63 inches. During testing with a load of five people and full fuel, the vessel weighed approximately 86,075 pounds. Powered by twin 1150 horsepower CAT C18 Acerts turning 34 by 37 five-bladed props, the yacht achieved a top speed of 30.7 knots at 2300 RPM, consuming 118 gallons of fuel per hour. The optimal cruise speed was found at 23 knots at 1960 RPM, with a fuel burn of 90 gallons per hour. For long-distance cruising, the L650 can operate efficiently at displacement speeds; at 1000 RPM, it travels 9.4 knots, burns 15 gallons per hour, and has a range of 583 nautical miles.

Handling and Sea Behavior

The L650 demonstrates exceptional handling characteristics, combining a solid, stable feel with responsive agility. Its hull design and weight distribution enable it to cut through waves smoothly rather than launching over them, contributing to a comfortable ride in various sea conditions. The yacht holds a European CE Class A offshore rating, certifying its capability to handle heavy weather. Automatic trim tabs minimize bow rise during acceleration, maintaining a neutral six-degree bow-high attitude at cruise. In turns, the yacht leans up to ten degrees before settling at eight degrees, with a slight shoulder drop that enhances visibility around the bow. The vessel completes a full circle turn in approximately 50 seconds, covering two to three boat lengths at cruise speed.

Docking and Maneuverability

Sea Ray’s choice of inboard propulsion and advanced control systems makes the L650 remarkably easy to handle at the dock. The joystick system integrates thrusters with engine controls for precise maneuvering. However, the powerful torque from the large props allows for effortless control even without joystick assistance, relying solely on engine and thruster inputs. This intuitive handling capability ensures that operators of varying experience levels can confidently manage the yacht in tight spaces, fulfilling the design goal of owner-operator accessibility.

Conclusion

The Sea Ray L650 stands out as a thoughtfully engineered yacht that balances luxury, performance, and ease of operation. Its spacious engine room, advanced navigation and control systems, and excellent handling characteristics make it well-suited for owners who prefer to captain their own vessel. With strong offshore capabilities and efficient cruising performance, the L650 offers a compelling option for those seeking a high-quality, manageable yacht in the 65-foot class.
