Sea Ray SLX 270 Boats For Sale

The Sea Ray 270 SLX is a bowrider running a little over 27 feet overall with an 8-foot-6 beam, positioned as Sea Ray's luxury open-bow model. It seats roughly seven across the cockpit and adds several more in a deep, well-finished bow, giving it the room to host a group without stepping up into the heavier 30-foot class. Most examples wear arctic white gelcoat with a black boot stripe and black canvas, a combination that holds its shine and hides age well. This is the kind of boat that still tows tubes and wakeboards comfortably while carrying family and friends, which is a big part of why a used Sea Ray 270 SLX for sale draws steady interest.

Power ran through a MerCruiser big-block on a Bravo 3 sterndrive. Common setups include the 496 Mag rated at 375 horsepower and the 8.2-liter rated at 380 horsepower, the latter paired with the Bravo 3 X drive because the standard Bravo 3 is only rated to 375 horsepower. Many boats are fitted with digital throttle and shift, trim tabs, and Captain's Call switchable through-hull exhaust, which drops the sound down to a near whisper at idle. The 496 planes smoothly and flat, and freshwater-cooled examples with stainless steel props are prized for longevity.

The helm on 2011 boats uses Sea Ray's redesigned dash, leather-wrapped with a phone dock, phone charger, and LED lighting. Stainless Sea Ray instrumentation covers speed, fuel, tach, and trim, and some boats carry a North Star display. The wheel has integrated buttons, and rocker switches handle docking, cockpit, nav, and anchor lights along with the exhaust bypass. Sound systems range from a Sony head unit to an upgraded Rockford Fosgate setup with amplifier and a passenger-side remote.

The cockpit centers on wide, open seating with swivel captain's chairs and flip-up bolsters, plus an L-shaped bench that drops in to complete the layout. A refreshment station carries a Corian countertop, a sink, and a refrigerator with the entertainment package, and there's a dedicated slot for a cooler. In-floor ski storage runs deep beneath the snap-out carpet. The center walk-through leads forward past an anchor locker and freshwater washdown. Aft, an extended swim platform uses diamond-plate nonskid at the edges, with a transom shower, water and fuel fills, and a stereo remote. The radar arch mounts a bimini, a tow point, and the anchor light.

Build quality is a defining trait of the 270 SLX. It's a full-liner boat, with a fiberglass liner set between the hull mold and top cap and the void injected with resin, producing fully finished fiberglass compartments and a rigid, quiet ride with little water noise. Storage lids are resin-transfer-molded and hung on full piano hinges. An enclosed head tucks under the forward-facing helm seat, fitted either as a VacuFlush unit or a pump-out chemical head depending on the year, and cushioned safety bars guard against bumps. When shopping, check the anchor system, since the through-hull setup is manual on many boats rather than an electric windlass, and inspect the aft cushion vinyl at the boarding points, which commonly tears and may need reskinning. Hour counts vary widely, with clean examples showing as few as 181 hours and others in the 400-to-500 range.
