Sea Ray SLX 260 Outboard: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Sea Ray SLX 260 Outboard is a newly introduced model designed as a luxury platform for entertaining and extended days on the water. It combines elegant styling with practical features aimed at cruising and cove activities. Notably, this is the first sport boat to incorporate the design language first seen in the 370 Sundancer, featuring the distinctive S-shear line, center crease with integrated logo, and forward jawline. Additionally, the SLX 260 Outboard is the first Sea Ray boat designed entirely by an all-women design team, emphasizing both aesthetics and functionality.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The cockpit of the SLX 260 Outboard is spacious and inviting, with 30 inches of separation between the two main seats and wraparound seating extending to the port and stern, complemented by a bench seat on the starboard side. Storage solutions are thoughtfully integrated, including under-seat compartments for soft-sided coolers and a removable, guttered storage caddy that channels water away from the interior. Comfort features such as lumbar supports and 17 beverage holders, many illuminated with courtesy lighting, enhance the onboard experience. The port side observer seat is highly adjustable with swivel, slide, and flip-up bolster functions, and controls are conveniently located. Integrated speakers are discreetly placed throughout the boat for a clean aesthetic. The helm area includes a lockable glove box and the innovative First Mate safety system, which detects man-overboard situations and automatically kills the engine to prevent accidents.
Head Compartment and Storage
The head compartment features a vacuum flush toilet, sink, and upgraded decking options including non-skid surfaces and optional C-deck in brown or gray. The door is magnetically held open for convenience. Storage is ample, with a large index compartment beneath the deck that is gasketed and equipped with gas struts and an overboard drain channel. Overall, the boat offers 24 cubic feet more storage than its predecessor, reflecting a significant improvement in utility.
Power Tower and Shade Features
The SLX 260 Outboard is equipped with a second-generation power tower featuring an opening T-top that is collapsible via controls located on the starboard bulwarks or at the helm panel. This design allows the boat to pass under low bridges with the tower lowered while still maintaining full operational capability. A manually deployed pop-up sunshade extends across the bow and cockpit, providing full-length coverage. This manual deployment ensures durability and allows the boat to be operated at full speed with the shade deployed, a notable advantage over typical extendable shades.
Bow and Stern Comfort and Functionality
The walkthrough to the bow is 19 inches wide, with a single-piece air dam and a walkthrough windshield that can be closed for protection on cooler mornings. The bow seating area is generously cushioned with 25 inches of knee strike zone clearance and 15-inch high bulwarks, featuring upholstered seating all around, hidden speakers, beverage holders, and flip-down armrests on both sides. Storage is available under seats and within the console, complemented by in-deck compartments. Leather-wrapped handrails add a refined touch. At the stern, a wide 18-inch walkthrough and a nine-inch step lead to the swim platform, which includes a four-step reboarding ladder with grab handles. The swim platform measures 40 by 63 inches and includes an insulated, self-draining storage compartment suitable for ice or gear. Additional storage extends beneath the seats, offering ample space for water sports equipment and other belongings.
Optional Bundles and Upgrades
Sea Ray has streamlined the purchasing process by offering bundled option packages that enhance comfort, entertainment, essentials, lighting, and water systems. The comfort bundle includes tables for the cockpit and bow plus a filler cushion. The entertainment bundle upgrades the Fusion stereo system and adds an inductive charging station at the helm. Essentials cover cockpit and tonneau covers, fender clips, a flagpole, and C-deck on the swim platform and head decking. The lighting bundle features RGBW LED color-changing lights for the bow, cockpit, and underwater through-hulls, docking lights, and an illuminated Sea Ray badge, with an optional power tower upgrade that projects the Sea Ray logo onto the cockpit floor. The water system bundle adds a bow washdown, pull-out sprayer at the transom, and a water pressure system. These packages reflect Sea Ray's commitment to combining upscale features with ease of customization.
Conclusion
The Sea Ray SLX 260 Outboard presents a well-rounded luxury sport boat that balances style, comfort, and functionality. Its thoughtful design elements, generous storage, advanced safety features, and customizable option bundles make it an attractive choice for those seeking an upscale day boat for entertaining and extended cruising. While this overview focused on features and layout, the boat also promises capable handling, which is detailed in a separate performance review.
