SELLER DESCRIPTION

1996 SEA RAY 440 EXPRESS BRIDGE, OLE MAN RIBBER is a great entertainment platform, the Sea Ray 440 Express Bridge has one of the more expansive interior layouts of any similar boat in her class. Like all express bridge designs with their space-saving V-drive power system and low deckhouse profiles, the 440 s sunken salon utilizes the entire width of the hull to create a huge, wide-open floorplan laid out on a single level. With the engines under the cockpit, there s even room for an innovative mid-cabin stateroom beneath the molded cockpit bridge steps, something not seen in other express bridge models. Built on a fully cored hull with moderate beam and prop pockets to reduce the shaft angles, the 440 s huge, party time flybridge is arranged with the wraparound helm console/settee on the centerline and additional bench seating forward. A pass-thru in the bridge coaming provides access to the foredeck with its built-in bench seating. The cockpit features a full bench seat at the transom as well as dual transom doors and a gas assist hatch for engine access. Excellent condition and loaded with all options one could want. Old Man Ribber has private staterooms each with t.v., v.c.r., corian counter tops and much more that exudes upper class design. The Sea Ray 440 Exprss Bridge is a popular low-profile design that offers one of the more roomy interiors for its class. Enter the cabin from the cockpit through a sliding glass door. Immediately to port and down two steps is the guest stateroom and separate head. In the salon, to port, is a tremendous U-shaped dinette with seating for 5-6 adults. Across to starboard is the entertainment center, second "breakfast bar" dinette, and functional galley with stand up refrigerator. The Master stateroom is forward with private head with shower. The flybridge and upper deck offers comfortable seating for a small crowd with a large (nearly full beam!) forward-facing bench style seat aft of the helm seat, two smaller bench seats (one facing forward, the other aft), and a comfortable helm seat behind a convenient wrap-around console that offers excellent visibility.
