Big and Friendly

The boat is 51 feet, 4 inches in length, with a beam of 14 feet, 8 inches that helps create a spacious cockpit for sportfishing or relaxing in the open air. The swim platform has a concealed swim ladder, and a transom compartment houses the boat's Glendinning Cablemaster shore power cord system.

There is plentiful seating in the lower area of the cockpit, with an electrically operated aft bench settee along the transom and an aft-facing curved bench seat backing the helm — separated by a movable table. The cockpit is equipped with a wet bar, a DC breaker panel on the port side and storage compartments.

You can reach the engine room through a hatch in the cockpit deck — and we enjoyed the additional headroom provided in this compartment, when compared to other boats of this size. The engine room is nicely gelcoated and insulated with a 2-inch vinyl barrier.

The main components in this space are an auxiliary generator and twin Cummins 6CTA diesel V-drives, with underwater exhaust to help reduce noise under way. I noticed that the engines, hoses, Y-valves and seacocks are easily accessible, without having to become a contortionist.

The helm station, located under the hardtop, offers a nice dash layout with a engine gauges, Garmin 12" MFD, Garmin autopilot, Sea Ray Systems monitor.

The switch panel is located on the right side of the console. A Euro-style adjustable skipper's seat is located on the starboard side, with additional guest seating centered at the helm, leaving the port side open for cabin access.

We started the main engines while the dock crew handled the lines and stowed the fenders for us, as we prepared to make the 45-minute-long cruise through Newport Harbor to reach the Pacific Ocean. I noticed that, at 5.5 knots, the engines were burning only 1 gallon of fuel per hour.

Accommodating Layout

During our no-wake cruise through the harbor, I decided to go exploring belowdecks. I entered the saloon to find comfortable and inviting quarters, with deep pile carpeting, blossom cherry wood finishes and light-colored headliner.

The galley is located on the port side and offers a notable amount of cabinet space and drawer storage. The galley's countertop looks especially large, thanks to molded covers that conceal the sink and stovetop.

The 460 comes equipped with a coffeemaker, a microwave/convection oven, a three-burner cooktop and an upright refrigerator/freezer. Additionally, on the port side between the galley and forward stateroom, our test boat had a wall-mounted flat-screen television with a Bose surround-sound stereo system — including a DVD/CD player.

The main saloon has comfortable Ultraleather seating, with both an inclining chair and a sofa that turns into a slide-out berth with the flip of a switch. There is cabinet storage above the seating along the starboard headliner.

One head is located on the saloon's port side with access from the saloon or forward stateroom and the other head is located in the aft stateroom. The forward head has an enclosed shower with the aft head utilizing a pullout faucet sprayer, and both have VacuFlush toilets. There are two staterooms, as mentioned, and both have solid sliding pocket doors for privacy.

The forward stateroom has a flat-screen television that you can watch from your full-size berth. The berth offers storage underneath, where a subwoofer for the surround-sound stereo system is installed.

A vanity is located to starboard, and the stateroom is completed with two hanging lockers (to port and starboard).

The aft stateroom serves a dual purpose. It is a conversation area open to the main saloon during the day, then converts into an enclosed stateroom at night. You slide the dual sliding doors closed, then transform the area's wide settee into a full-size berth.

The stateroom also has a cedar-lined hanging locker and a flat-screen television. There is also a washer/dryer combo here.

At the Helm

After my tour belowdecks, I returned to the helm. As we cleared the jetty and left Newport Harbor, Foley offered me the helm. It was time to kick it up a notch, for some fast-paced cruising into 2-to-3-foot seas.

The hydraulic shifters had a good feel, and we found the ride starting out to be smooth and seakindly.

We hit wide-open throttle at 2,600 rpm, at 29.1 knots into the swell — while burning 49.1 gph. I backed down to cruise at 2,200 rpm maintaining a respectable 22.3 knots — and using considerably less fuel, at 29 gph.

This was a solidly constructed boat. We heard no rattles, pounding, thumping or other noises that are present on many boats as they perform maneuvers at top speed.

We put the boat through its paces, running figure eights, running through our wake at speed, throttling back from wide-open throttle to no throttle. The boat performed very well and handled like a champ — and tracked smoothly even when I let go of the wheel at wide-open throttle.
