Sea Ray SDX 270: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Sea Ray 270 Sundeck is a spacious bow rider designed with an emphasis on open space, safety, and guest comfort. Its distinctive feature is the wide beam carried far forward to a squared-off bow, creating generous roominess that appeals to those seeking both style and functionality in a premium-level boat.

Exterior Design and Seating

The bow area measures 6 feet 2 inches in width at the back, tapering to 4 feet 9 inches at the bow, and features comfortable 4 foot 6 inch long lounge seats with flip-down armrests and an optimal recline for relaxation and forward views. These seats are enhanced with diamond-stitched backs, varied materials, bead welting, and contrast stitching, reflecting a focus on both style and comfort. A filler cushion converts the bow seating into a sun pad. The cockpit continues the upscale mocha brown color scheme complemented by mahogany brown topsides. Padded bolsters, generous stainless steel accents, and ultra-vinyl upholstery—a resilient material with the softness of ultra-leather—enhance durability and comfort. Both helm and guest seats are seat-and-a-half width with wide flip-up bolsters and flip seat backs that integrate seamlessly with the wraparound cockpit seating, which is angled to maximize space. Optional woven vinyl snap-in carpet and pedestal tables in the cockpit and bow increase functionality. Boarding options include a non-skid step revealed by removing the corner seat cushion on the port side and a flip-down step on the starboard side.

Stern and Swim Platform Features

The aft seating is designed for comfort and socializing, accommodating up to four people with aft-facing cushions that include additional knee support. Beverage holders and accessory plugs are conveniently placed, along with an optional transom stereo remote, tilt switch, and pull-out freshwater shower. The swim platform extends 2 feet 8 inches from the transom and is optionally covered with Sea Deck non-skid matting that resembles teak and remains cool in sunlight. It includes grab handles and a re-boarding ladder on the starboard side, with an optional wide, easy-to-deploy re-boarding step at centerline that features positive buoyancy for ease of use and stowage. For beaching, a bow re-boarding ladder is available, as well as a freshwater shower for rinsing feet. The anchor system can be upgraded to an electric windlass with stainless or galvanized anchor.

Windshield and Storage Solutions

The boat features a closed windshield with an air dam to reduce wind exposure on cooler mornings. The window can be secured in an open position with a stainless latch, and a molded channel beneath the windshield straps directs rainwater away from seating areas. Storage is well thought out, with saddle-type compartments near the helm, lockable glove storage in the port console, and a stereo system with MP3 port and accessory plug inside the console. Both the bow and cockpit have insulated, self-draining storage compartments beneath the seats, each with gas-strut-assisted hatches and water-tight gaskets to keep contents dry and secure. These compartments are lockable, providing safe storage for valuable gear.

Interior Head and Amenities

The head compartment includes a porta-potty, sink, and freshwater faucet connected to a 20-gallon tank. A port light offers natural light and ventilation, with an overhead clearance of 4 feet 2 inches and 2 feet 9 inches above the seat. This space is functional and compact, suitable for the boat’s size and intended use.

Additional Storage and Optional Features

Under the cockpit seats, additional storage is available, including dedicated compartments for two pedestal tables. Instead of a traditional cooler, the starboard side features an insulated storage compartment with an integrated electric chill box. This seating area can be replaced with an optional wet bar and cockpit refrigerator. Wet storage is located at the aft walkthrough, ideal for storing water sports equipment or ice for extended outings. The boat also supports water sports with an optional collapsible custom tower equipped with an integrated bimini top mounted on powder-coated framing. Board racks can be installed between the tower and bimini frame. The tower includes an elevated tow point 7 feet 2 inches above the deck, though a lower tow point beneath the bimini would be preferable. The bimini can pivot to lie flat against the collapsed tower for low-profile storage.

Conclusion

The Sea Ray 270 Sundeck impresses with its well-thought-out layout, premium fit and finish, and a comprehensive list of quality features that cater to comfort, style, and functionality. Its spacious design accommodates a full complement of guests comfortably, while its durable materials and thoughtful amenities make it well suited for both leisurely cruising and active water sports. Overall, the 270 Sundeck stands out as a premium bow rider that balances performance with upscale comfort.
