Overview
The Sea Ray 220 Sundeck OB is a newly redesigned 20-foot boat that challenges the typical expectations of this class by offering a level of fit and finish usually reserved for larger vessels. Positioned as a premium offering, this model combines refined craftsmanship with practical design features, aiming to deliver both style and performance.
Helm and Control Layout
At the helm, Sea Ray has adopted a clean and uncluttered design. The dashboard features four anti-fog gauges with chrome bezels mounted on a glare-reducing panel, complemented by a SmartKraft gauge that provides selectable information to minimize visual clutter. The dual-tone vinyl surfaces—light tan on the lower panel and dark brown on the sunshade brow—further reduce glare. An optional compass is positioned to the left of the panel, and custom embroidery adds a touch of refinement. Below the gauges, two carbon fiber sub-panels house lighted rocker switches and a stereo remote. A thoughtfully angled storage cubby prevents items from spilling during throttle adjustments. The throttle system is a Mercury Cruiser DTS digital throttle and shift, offering instantaneous response with dedicated buttons for neutral-only mode and one-touch engine start/stop. The ignition key is located forward in the lower storage compartment, safely away from potential knee strikes. The helm seat is a comfortable pedestal wraparound bucket style with enhanced lumbar support, patterned stitching, and multi-colored, thick vinyl upholstery. It swivels, slides, and includes a well-padded flip-up bolster suitable for extended periods of use.
Exterior Features and Engine Access
The foredeck incorporates a compartment that ingeniously combines storage for ground tackle with a four-step B-tree boarding ladder, a design solution that typically requires separate spaces. The test boat was equipped with an optional 250 horsepower Mercury Verado four-stroke outboard engine, while the standard offering is a 175 horsepower unit, with a 200 horsepower option also available. The transom is positioned sufficiently forward to allow the engine to tilt fully out of the water. To facilitate daily engine maintenance, Sea Ray has integrated platforms on both sides of the engine well, providing secure footing for inspections and minor servicing. This thoughtful design enhances safety and convenience when performing routine checks.
Performance and Handling
The Sea Ray 220 Sundeck OB measures 20 feet in length overall, with a beam of 8 feet 4 inches and a draft of 3 feet 3 inches. The boat's empty weight is 3,790 pounds; with half fuel and two people aboard, the test weight was 4,342 pounds. Powered by the optional 250 horsepower Mercury Verado four-stroke paired with a 17-inch pitch inertia propeller, the boat achieved a top speed of 53.4 miles per hour at 6,400 RPM. At this speed, fuel consumption was 27.75 gallons per hour, resulting in a range of 78 miles. The most efficient cruising speed was found at 3,500 RPM, delivering 23.9 miles per hour with a fuel burn of only 6.05 gallons per hour. This translates to a range of 159 miles and an endurance of nearly seven hours while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve. Acceleration metrics include a time to plane of 3.6 seconds, 20 mph in 4.4 seconds, 30 mph in 6.6 seconds, 40 mph in 10.7 seconds, and surpassing 50 mph in 12.8 seconds. Upon acceleration, the boat exhibits a 13-degree bow-high attitude before settling into an optimal 5-degree running angle. Trimming the engine to approximately one-quarter up achieves the best running posture. Handling is notably responsive, with stable turns free from chine walking or falling off the turn. While aggressive maneuvers can induce propeller ventilation, this is easily corrected by adjusting the trim. The boat does experience some speed reduction during turns, so applying additional power when entering turns is advisable. The digital throttle system ensures immediate response, enhancing control.
Comfort and Noise Levels
One of the standout attributes of the 220 Sundeck OB is its remarkably quiet operation. The combination of the Mercury Verado engine and the hull's solid construction results in minimal noise intrusion, primarily limited to wind noise. This quietness allows for comfortable conversation at cruising speeds. The windshield is raked back at a 20-degree angle, lending a sporty aesthetic; however, for taller operators, the windshield frame may obstruct the line of sight when seated normally. Using the flip-up bolster seat position effectively resolves this issue. When decelerating, the boat settles stern-first into the water, contributing to smooth handling characteristics.
Conclusion
The Sea Ray 220 Sundeck OB emerges as a well-crafted, premium-quality boat within its class. It combines thoughtful design elements, comfortable ergonomics, and strong performance metrics to deliver a refined boating experience. Its quiet operation, efficient fuel consumption, and responsive handling make it a compelling choice for those seeking a 20-foot vessel with upscale features and reliable performance.
