Sea Ray 240: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Sea Ray 240 Sundeck is a premium bow rider designed to combine style, functionality, and comfort. This stern drive model showcases Sea Ray's commitment to delivering an upscale boating experience, with a focus on spaciousness and refined details. The boat is positioned to appeal to those seeking a polished, high-quality vessel suitable for both leisure and water sports.
Exterior Design and Deck Features
At the stern, the 240 Sundeck features a full beam swim platform with the engine conveniently located beneath a wide sun pad behind the aft cockpit seat. This sun pad comfortably accommodates two people and includes two drink holders and a small storage cubby to port. Beneath the sun pad is a wet storage compartment with drainage into the bilge, which benefits from engine heat to help dry wet items such as swimsuits and towels. Forward access is facilitated not only via the swim platform but also through a hatch that provides storage space shared by an anchor with keeper and a four-step beach reboarding ladder. To starboard, an optional freshwater shower is available for rinsing off sand before boarding. The foredeck is fully non-skid and accessible via a hatch cover step in the bow, which serves as both an egress point when docking or beaching and a diving platform. The bow area capitalizes on the boat’s generous 8 foot 6 inch beam carried far forward, creating an expanded footwell and a less cramped seating arrangement. The upholstery features multiple tones of soft vinyl with contrasting piping, thickly padded seat backs, and double-padded flip-down armrests. A unique feature is the addition of three aft-facing seats across the forward bulkhead, increasing the boat's capacity from 12 to 13 passengers. Storage is easily accessible beneath hinged seat cushions, and an optional pedestal table creates a popular gathering spot.
Helm and Cockpit Layout
The walkthrough windshield is robustly framed and equipped with dual locks to secure it closed, while an automatic latch holds it open without the need for straps or snaps. The helm console includes a lockable access door and a bi-fold air dam opposite it. Inside, there is dedicated storage space for the cockpit table and a specialized module for mounting the stereo system, which features a 12-volt power supply, MP3 and USB ports, and a padded non-skid shelf for the MP3 player. Outside the helm, Sea Ray has incorporated two lockable index storage lockers for convenient access and security. The cockpit offers ample room for movement, with an oversized observer seat that reverses from forward to aft facing. This seat includes a wide armrest trimmed with carbon fiber and an angled grab handle behind a stainless steel drink holder. Lighting is thoughtfully designed with a two-position switch at the helm controlling blue accent lights over the drink holders and white courtesy lights around the deck and under the optional wakeboard tower.
Amenities and Comfort Features
To port, a standard head compartment is enclosed by a curved, lockable door with a small recess for holding items. The compartment houses a pump-out head, though the space is somewhat compact. Optional finish packages enhance the cockpit’s upscale feel with cargo netting, padded bulkheads, and wood-veneered storage shelves on the forward bulkhead. The main cockpit seating consists of an L-shaped arrangement wrapping around the stern, featuring padded lumbar supports that flip down to reveal armrests with stainless steel drink holders—the only holders on board without drain lines to the bilge. Beneath the seating is a door concealing a standard 25-quart cooler, lending a refined appearance to the cockpit area. The side mount for the pedestal table is conveniently located here, maximizing usable space.
Water Sports and Additional Options
For enthusiasts of water sports, the optional wakeboard tower is a significant addition. It is custom-designed with a collapsible, powder-coated tubular frame that is color-matched to the hull. The tower’s design allows it to be lowered to the windshield by pulling two pins, reducing overhead clearance for easier storage in most garages. A custom bimini top is also available, complementing the tower and providing shade.
Conclusion
The Sea Ray 240 Sundeck presents a well-executed blend of style, comfort, and functionality. Its premium appointments, spacious layout, and thoughtful features make it a standout in the bow rider category. The boat’s design maximizes usable space and passenger capacity while maintaining an upscale appearance that will likely inspire pride of ownership. Overall, the 240 Sundeck is a refined and versatile vessel well suited for both casual cruising and active water sports.
