Sea Ray 270 Amberjack Boats For Sale

The Sea Ray 270 Amberjack is an express cruiser built to fish and overnight in equal measure, produced in the mid-to-late 2000s and sometimes badged as the 275 Amberjack. At roughly 27 feet, it pairs a fishing cockpit with a finished cabin, which is the central distinction shoppers weigh in a Sea Ray Amberjack vs Sundancer comparison: the Amberjack keeps the bait wells, rod holders and a working transom that the Sundancer trades away for more lounging. A Sea Ray 270 Amberjack for sale typically carries an aluminum radar arch with rocket launchers, a Taylor curved tinted windshield, a Bimini top, an extended swim platform with a four-step boarding ladder, and a stainless steel anchor windlass with foot pedals at the bow.

Power comes from a single 6.2L MPI MerCruiser Horizon rated at about 320 horsepower, fresh-water cooled and turning a Bravo 3 outdrive with twin counter-rotating stainless steel props. The boat planes quickly and runs hard for its class. Top speed reaches 48.2 knots, with about 28 knots (roughly 33 mph) at 3,800 rpm serving as the cruise sweet spot, and 24.6 knots at 3,500 rpm. Later 2008 boats added electronic shifting and throttle for smoother control. Trim tabs are fitted, and visibility from the helm is good underway.

The helm sits to starboard with a thigh bolster seat, tilt steering wheel and a dedicated electronics flat that owners have outfitted with chartplotters, radar, sonar fish finders and autopilot from brands including Simrad and NavMan. SmartCraft gauges, aircraft-grade switches and a built-in VHF with speaker round out the dash. Engine access is through a gas-assist lift hatch revealing the powerplant, four batteries, a hot water heater and the holding tank, with room around the block to service it; risers and manifolds are a common maintenance item to verify.

The cockpit is laid out for fishing. There is a fish box, a deep bait well measuring roughly 3.5 to 4 feet wide, gunnel rod holders port and starboard, racks for gaffs and nets, and a wet bar with a sink, cutting board, dedicated cooler storage and a half-scoop bait tank. The aft bench seat folds flat against the transom to free deck space and double as a coaming pad, and a back-to-back lounge seat to port reclines flat enough for a six-foot adult. A transom door, hot-and-cold transom shower, snap-in carpet liner and deep in-floor bow storage add to the day-boat practicality.

Below, the cabin reads as a finished cruiser with teak-and-holly sole. The galley has Corian countertops, a microwave, a butane stove and a 12-volt refrigerator, plus storage above and below. The forward V-berth measures over 7 feet at the angle and converts to a sofa or berth using filler cushions and the cockpit table, while a full-beam, double-wide mid-cabin berth sleeps additional guests. The head compartment is a fully fiberglass-lined space with a vacuum-flush toilet, sink, an opening screened window and a pullout RV-style shower with hot and cold water. A ventilated hatch with screen and shade brings air into the bow.

Well-equipped examples add a 7,000 BTU air conditioning and heating unit, Sirius satellite radio with MP3 input, a Clarion stereo with Bluetooth, a DVD player and an LG TV on a swivel mount; air conditioning is not standard on every boat, so confirm it before buying. Engine hours on listed boats have ranged from the 400s to the 600s. Buyers searching for a Sea Ray Amberjack for sale near them, including in Michigan, should check the outdrive, risers and manifolds, and budget for bottom paint on saltwater hulls. For specs, review and pricing, the 270 Amberjack stands as the core of the Sea Ray Amberjack lineup for buyers who want one boat for fishing, cruising and overnighting.
