The Sea Ray SPX 230 is the largest model in the SPX bowrider lineup, sitting above the 190 and 210, and it comes in both stern drive and outboard versions. It runs 23 feet (7.12 meters) with a length overall of 23 feet 6 inches, a beam of 8 feet 6 inches (about 2.55 meters), and a draft of 38 inches, with an empty weight of 4,372 pounds. The hull carries a Category C rating for up to 13 people, which makes it a genuine large-family day boat, and at this size it stays trailerable for towing behind a car. Shoppers searching the Sea Ray SPX 230 OB for sale will find the outboard configuration paired with Mercury power, while stern drive examples use MerCruiser engines.
Performance depends on the power package. The stern drive top spec is a 300-horsepower 6.2-liter MerCruiser MPI with a Bravo 3 outdrive, and this setup reaches the low-to-mid 40s in knots, climbing past 43 knots at 5,700 rpm toward 44 knots. The standard 250-horsepower 4.5-liter MerCruiser, upgraded to a Bravo 3 with a 22.5-pitch prop, hit a top speed of 43 mph at 5,000 rpm, with a best cruise at 3,000 rpm and 22.2 mph returning 3.7 miles per gallon from a 6-gallon-per-hour burn for a range of 167 miles while holding a 10 percent reserve of the 50-gallon fuel capacity. That boat planed in 4.5 seconds with an 8-degree bow rise and ran to 30 mph in 10.8 seconds. The outboard SPX 230, fitted with a 200-horsepower Mercury, cruised near 27 knots at 2,700 rpm on about 35 liters per hour and topped out around 35 knots, with fuel consumption climbing sharply above 3,000 rpm. Steering is light and responsive, with a 17-degree roll in hard turns and no chine walk or prop ventilation.
The helm pairs a tilt steering wheel with a swivel bucket seat that has a flip-up bolster and an angled footrest. The dash starts with analog gauges and upgrades to a 5-inch or 9-inch Simrad touchscreen, which doubles as chartplotter, GPS, fish finder, and engine display. Audio is handled by a Fusion system, upgradeable to a Signature Series with four speakers, a 10-inch subwoofer, and a five-channel amp. A bilge pump, blower, and ignition sit to the right of the wheel, every boat carries a fire suppression system, and digital throttle and shift is available. Active trim and a dual-battery setup with a switch at the walkthrough round out the systems.
The cockpit is the main social zone, with L-shaped seating across the aft and starboard sides and a cockpit depth of 35 inches. A large sun pad sits over the engine hatch, and the flip seat back converts to a cross-aft-facing seat. The 24-inch swim platform can be finished in optional Sea Deck non-skid, with a standard undermount swim ladder or an optional 16-inch manual submersible swim step held by a magnetic catch. The Elevation package adds a folding forward-facing watersports tower with a bimini standing 6 feet 3 inches off the deck and wakeboard racks. On the outboard layout, the freed-up transom becomes a deep storage locker, joined by storage under every seat, a ski locker, a 36-quart carry-on cooler, and an optional active electric cooler.
The bow is fully usable, with twin forward-facing V-seats, a center aft-facing seat, padded bolsters, and stainless steel grab handles, measuring 31 inches from deck to cap rail. A filler cushion converts the bow into a sun pad, and closing the opening windshield blocks wind into the cockpit on cool days. The SPX 230 is the only model in the lineup with a portside compartment that accepts a Porta-Potti or pump-out head, giving 3 feet 8 inches of overhead clearance and 2 feet 4 inches of sitting headroom; left empty it serves as storage.
Build quality is a consistent strength, with Sunbrella canvas, stainless steel bimini supports, metal switches, and upholstery and decking trim designed to last. Optional packages bundle the bimini, snap-in carpet, bow and cockpit covers, table, and lighting. When comparing a Sea Ray SPX 230 for sale, the main decisions are stern drive versus outboard, the engine rating from 250 to 300 horsepower on the inboard or the 200-horsepower outboard, and whether the example includes the watersports tower, head, upgraded Simrad display, and trailer. Used 2020 and 2022 outboard boats turn up on the market, some with trailers, bottom paint, and service history.
