Upgrading your boating lifestyle just got easier. This April, the Sea Ray Trade-In Assistance Program is back, and it’s the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. Offered exclusively through Modern Yachts and available from April 1 to April 30, 2025, this exciting promotion is ideal for both long-time boating enthusiasts and those ready to step into the world of luxury marine craft for the first time.
The Sea Ray Trade-In Assistance Program Explained
Let’s break it down. Whether your current boat has served you faithfully for years or you’re simply looking to switch brands, Sea Ray is offering exceptional trade-in bonuses up to $10,000 when you purchase an eligible 2025 or prior model year Sea Ray. What’s more, your trade-in boat doesn’t need to be a Sea Ray—any make qualifies, as long as it meets the eligibility criteria.
These incentives are applied directly to your retail contract, which means real savings, right now—not hypothetical promises or delayed rebates.

Incentive Tiers: What You Could Earn
The trade-in credit you receive depends on the new Sea Ray model you purchase. Here’s how it stacks up:
Incentive Value | Eligible Sea Ray Models |
---|---|
$2,500 | SPX190, SPO190, SPX210, SPO210, SPX230, SPO230 |
$5,000 | SDX250, SDO250, SDS250, SDX270, SDO270, SDS270, SDX290, SDO290 |
$7,500 | SLX260, SXO260, SXS260, SLX280, SXO280, SLX310 |
$10,000 | SXO310, SLX350, SXO350, SLX400, SXO400, DA320, DAO320, DA370, DAO370 |
This sliding scale ensures there’s an incentive whether you’re eyeing a nimble day boat or a spacious cruiser.
