This 1998 Sea Ray 420 Aft Cabin delivers everything people love about this model: big-boat feel, diesel reliability, and the comfort of a true floating condo. Powered by twin Caterpillar 3116s, it has the strength and efficiency to cruise confidently, whether you’re hopping harbors or settling in for extended time aboard.
The layout is classic Sea Ray—step onto the generous aft deck, perfect for sunsets and social time, then down into a bright, inviting salon with plenty of seating and panoramic views. With two private staterooms and two heads, everyone on board gets real privacy, making this yacht ideal for couples cruising together, family trips, or full-time liveaboard life.
The galley is fully equipped for real cooking aboard, featuring a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, Sharp convection oven, Kenyon stovetop, Black & Decker coffee maker, and even a built-in Nutone blender—everything from morning coffee to full dinners is easily handled. There’s also a Tundra mini-fridge and stainless steel grill, making entertaining on the aft deck effortless. A Beam central vacuum system adds a surprising residential touch, and the swim step shower is perfect after a dip.
Entertainment and connectivity are truly standout features on this boat. Multiple TVs throughout the yacht, paired with DVD/VHS players, keep movie nights easy, while upgraded audio, including Planet Audio stereo, Fusion remote, and subwoofer, provides excellent sound. For those who want to stay connected anywhere, the boat is equipped with Starlink Wi-Fi and a KVH DV3 satellite TV antenna, turning this yacht into a true live-work-cruise platform. A CCTV camera system adds extra peace of mind.
For longer-range cruising, you’re not limited by marina water thanks to the Village Marine STW 400 desalination system, giving you the ability to make your own fresh water on board. Maintenance is made easier with a Reverso oil change system, and the Rule T145 dinghy lift lets you launch and retrieve your tender with ease.
At the helm, the boat is well equipped for confident navigation. Electronics include Simrad multifunction displays (EVO2-NR7 and EV3-NR16 with sounder), Simrad 4G broadband radar, Simrad GPS, Simrad autopilot with AC12, Simrad HS90 VHF, and Simrad B100 AIS. A Ritchie compass, ACR spotlight, and aft flood lighting round out a capable pilothouse setup that’s ready for serious cruising, day or night. Bennett trim tabs help dial in the perfect running attitude underway.
Overall, this Sea Ray 420 Aft Cabin is a well-equipped, comfortable, and highly upgraded cruiser—equally suited for weekend getaways, extended voyages, or living aboard. With Caterpillar diesel power and an equipment list that checks every box for comfort and technology, it’s ready for its next owner to step aboard and start enjoying the water.
