Sea Ray SEDAN BRIDGE: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The 2012 Sea Ray 450 Sedan Bridge marks a significant evolution for Sea Ray, introducing the Zeus propulsion system as a standard feature and showcasing notably high-quality interior joinery. This model targets boaters seeking to upgrade to a more versatile cruising vessel, combining spacious accommodations with modern performance capabilities.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
Measuring 45 feet 6 inches in length overall with a beam of 14 feet 5 inches, the 450 Sedan Bridge features a 48-inch draft and a 17-degree deadrise at the transom, with a dry weight of 36,602 pounds. The side decks are sufficiently wide for comfortable passage, allowing two size D shoes to fit side by side. The stern platform is standard, with an optional hydraulic lift available for tender or personal watercraft storage. European buyers have the option of a pass-around design. The aft deck includes an L-shaped lounge seating area, complemented by an optional table and wet bar. The helm station is located on the flying bridge, which offers a unique dual companion seat to port that swivels 180 degrees, facilitating social interaction around the optional teak table and U-shaped settee.
Interior Living Spaces
The interior salon is exceptionally spacious, reminiscent of layouts typically found on much larger yachts around 65 feet. The sofa is a freestanding piece, allowing it to function comfortably both as seating and as a double bed. Forward to port, a raised dinette booth seats four and provides excellent visibility. The galley is situated a few steps down to starboard and includes an upright refrigerator-freezer. This lowered galley design creates a cathedral-like overhead, enhancing the openness of the main living area.
Private Accommodations
The master stateroom is located forward and features an island bed with straight sides, facilitating easy access and linen changes. The design cleverly utilizes the bow flare to provide additional storage space. Above the forward cabin are two nearly identical wet heads, one on each side, with one capable of serving as a day head. Opposite the galley to port is the guest stateroom, which offers two single beds convertible into a king-size berth. This cabin benefits from generous headroom at the foot of the beds, a result of the raised dinette above.
Power and Performance
The test boat was equipped with twin 459 horsepower Cummins MerCruiser Diesel QSB 480 engines paired with twin Zeus pod drives, each with dual propellers. An optional upgrade to Cummins MerCruiser Diesel QSC 600 engines is available for those seeking speeds up to 40 knots. During testing, the 450 achieved a top speed of 30.6 knots at 3,400 rpm, consuming 50.8 gallons per hour, which translates to 0.60 nautical miles per gallon and a range of 203 nautical miles with a 10% fuel reserve. More notably, fuel efficiency remained consistent between 20 and 25 knots, the typical cruising range. At 25.3 knots and 3,000 rpm, the boat burned 36.2 gallons per hour, achieving 0.70 nautical miles per gallon and extending the range to 236 nautical miles with the reserve.
Conclusion
The 2012 Sea Ray 450 Sedan Bridge presents a compelling option for boaters seeking a spacious, well-appointed cruiser with modern propulsion technology and efficient performance. Its generous interior volume, thoughtful layout, and versatile deck arrangements make it suitable for entertaining and comfortable extended cruising. The integration of the Zeus pod drives enhances maneuverability and fuel economy, positioning this model as a noteworthy contender in its class.
