Sea Ray Amberjack Boats For Sale

The Sea Ray Amberjack is a cuddy-cabin built around fishing without giving up cruising comfort, and it suits a family that wants one boat for offshore runs, jetty fishing, bay days and the occasional overnight. The line spans the Sea Ray Amberjack 270 at 27 feet and the Sea Ray Amberjack 290 at 29 feet, with a roughly 10.5-foot beam on the 290 that opens up genuine walk-around space on both sides of the deck. Buyers looking at Sea Ray Amberjack boats for sale will find production examples from the early-to-mid 2000s, including 2002 and 2005 Amberjack 290 hulls.

Power on the Amberjack 290 comes from twin MerCruiser inboard/outboard sterndrives. Earlier configurations carried twin 350 Mag MerCruisers, while other 290 examples run twin 5.0-liter MerCruisers. Engine hours vary widely on the used market, from boats showing around 15 hours after a rebuild to higher-time examples near 630 hours, so the powertrain history matters more than the model year. Many surviving 290s have had short blocks rebuilt and components such as manifolds, risers, starters, alternators, transom plates and props replaced, which is worth confirming before you buy.

The helm carries chartplotters and electronics suited to fishing offshore. Setups include Garmin GPS with radar and Furuno plotters, the latter able to accept a radar feed, plus a separate depth finder, VHF radio and compass. The captain's chair is bolstered, and a Wester­beke generator with air conditioning lets the 290 stay comfortable on the hook overnight. Sound systems on updated boats run Fusion or Clarion head units with multiple speakers and a subwoofer.

The cockpit is set up for serious fishing: rod holders run along the gunnels, rocket-launcher holders sit up top on the bimini frame, and the rear bench seat is removable so you can clear the deck. Anglers get a live well, a large insulated fish box that drains, freshwater and raw-water washdown with a switch that diverts the raw-water pump between the bait well and the deck wash, plus a transom door, swim platform, swim ladder and transom shower. The bimini top folds out to shade and enclose the whole cockpit. Up front, the 290 has an electric windlass with foot switches, an anchor locker, a controllable spotlight and bow pads with room for several people.

Below, the Amberjack 290 works as a weekender. The cabin has a galley with a microwave, a single electric burner, a mini fridge with ice box, a deep sink and counter space, plus a forward V-berth, a standing locker, and a skylight with dual blinds, a blackout curtain and a screen. The dinette drops down to make an additional berth, so the boat sleeps a few adults and a couple of kids. The head is a wet head with a vacuum-flush toilet and a pump-out holding tank, with the shower hose drawn from the sink fixture.

The smaller Sea Ray Amberjack 270 follows the same idea in a 27-foot package, often fitted with a teak deck laid out to the swim platform and a teak-and-holly cabin sole. Its interior includes a vacuum-flush head, a microwave and a 12-volt galley fridge, and the helm seat folds down into a double. Note that some 270s were built without air conditioning, so climate control is a feature to check against your cruising plans when comparing a Sea Ray Amberjack 270 for sale to a generator-equipped 290.
