Description
Big-water comfort. Condo-style living. Built for entertaining and extended cruising.
Knot the End is a beautifully equipped 2002 Sea Ray 480 Motor Yacht that delivers exceptional interior volume, three private staterooms, generous entertaining spaces, reliable diesel power, and the kind of amenities that make time aboard feel easy, social, and fun.
Powered by twin Caterpillar 3196 640HP diesels with approximately 1,200 hours, this Sea Ray 480 offers the confidence and performance expected from a serious cruising motor yacht. The vessel has been continuously upgraded and maintained by knowledgeable owners and feels much younger than its age.
This is not just a boat for getting from one marina to the next. Knot the End is designed for living well on the water. From the fully enclosed, air-conditioned bridge to the hydraulic swim platform, underwater lights, bridge TV, stereo, icemaker/refrigerator, retractable electric awning, and multiple climate-controlled living areas, this yacht is set up for owners who want to cruise, entertain, swim, relax, and enjoy the yachting lifestyle. The 15'3" beam gives her the feel of a much larger yacht, with a spacious salon, separate galley and dinette, three staterooms, two heads, and a full-beam aft master suite.

Lifestyle & Entertaining Features
The fully enclosed bridge is one of the best features aboard. It functions like a second salon with commanding views, full AC/heat, SeaDek flooring, LED lighting, new upholstery, stereo, smart TV, icemaker/refrigerator, and removable canvas/sunscreen protection. Whether you are cruising the ICW, watching a sunset at anchor, or hosting friends at the dock, this area greatly expands the usable living space aboard.
Aft, the hydraulic swim platform adds real fun and utility. It includes pop-up tender chocks, SeaDek, and a retractable electric awning—ideal for launching a tender, swimming, paddleboarding, diving, or simply relaxing near the water. Underwater lights on the stern and sides add nighttime atmosphere and dock appeal.
Inside, the salon offers a crescent-shaped settee, port sofa, Bluetooth stereo, two zones of air conditioning, and a storage chest/liquor cabinet—making it a comfortable gathering space for family, guests, and overnight entertaining.
Full-Beam Aft Master Suite
The aft master is private, spacious, and comfortable, featuring a queen-sized berth, cedar-lined hanging lockers, nightstand, vanity area between the head and shower, stall shower, VacuFlush head, laminate flooring, and a separate AC zone.
Forward VIP Stateroom
Guests will appreciate the forward VIP stateroom with full-size berth, cedar-lined hanging locker, smart TV, laminate flooring, and its own AC zone.
Guest Stateroom
A third stateroom with twin berths, cedar-lined hanging locker, smart TV, laminate flooring, and storage under one berth makes this layout especially attractive for families, visiting guests, or owners who want an office/storage room aboard.
Galley & Interior Comfort
The galley is well suited for weekends, extended stays, and entertaining aboard. Features include a dinette, upgraded refrigerator/freezer in 2019, upgraded convection microwave in 2022, three-burner range with cover, and laminate flooring.
Throughout the cabin, the laminate flooring gives the interior a clean, updated feel while making maintenance easier than carpet—an important benefit for owners who actually use their boat.
Navigation, Handling & Mechanical Highlights
Knot the End is equipped for confident cruising with Raymarine Axiom 12 chartplotter, Raymarine ST7000 autopilot, Raymarine radar, VHF, backup camera, stereo throughout the boat, searchlight, windlass, bow thruster, and stern thruster.

- Westerbeke 12kW generator
- Battery charger
- Separate battery chargers for bow and stern thrusters
