How does she handle?  In the words of Sea Ray production manager Todd Stooksbury “She sits low to the water and is balanced.  The hull is a real wave-cruncher, with a twenty-one-degree transom deadrise, three lifting strakes and vented chines.”  This boat will serve you well whether it is in a nasty chop or providing a comfortable ride for the not so experienced boaters.  With plenty of power in her twin Mercruisers, she can get you home in a hurry, deftly between the pilings in a tight slip, and provides a satisfying control response in the hands of the skipper.

 “Neylan” is a wonderful boat.  With only 350 hrs on her and an engine room that is clean, clean, clean, she shows as a much younger vessel than her model year and will provide years of great service.  With full enclosure you are protected in case of inclement whether and can button up tight while moored or at the dock.  With a cruise in the low to mid 20’s you can have a stable and comfortable ride in most seas and still get to your destination with plenty of time.  Throttle back to a leisurely pace and she motors along at a wisper.

Easily move from the large swim platform forward past the portside icemaker and day sink down the wide companionway to what can only be described as a marine apartment.  Full galley with Refrigerator, cooktop, microwave and sink can serve up a tasty meal for the crew.  A large dinette with fine interior worksmanship will double as a breakfast station, evening meal with the family, or socializing space into the wee hours.  A grand centerline master berth is reminiscent of the large luxury yachts and the hallmark of the Sea Ray 340, an athwartships double berth set beneath the raised bridge deck, provides for luxurious accommodations for a visiting couple or a great hang out for the kids!  Flat panel TV and Enclosed head with standup shower complete the apartment feel.
