Info from Georges: The 1994 Sea Ray 440 Express Bridge—especially the desirable “walk-through salon bulkhead” version—is a standout mid-90s motor yacht that blends express-style sportiness with true motor yacht livability.

This configuration features a rare walk-through window/door from the salon directly to the foredeck, offering safer and easier access forward—an upgrade highly appreciated for docking, anchoring, and everyday usability.

Built during Sea Ray’s golden era, the 440 EB is known for its wide-beam interior, solid fiberglass construction, and exceptional entertaining spaces, both inside and out. Like the boat ? call me, Georges
