2022 Sea Ray SLX 280

The 2022 Sea Ray SLX 280 is a 28.5-foot bowrider built on a fiberglass hull and powered by a single MerCruiser 8.2L Mag HO engine producing 430 horsepower paired with Bravo III X Drive. The boat reaches speeds up to 47 mph and cruises comfortably at 30 mph. Closed cooling protects the engine, which carries only 169 hours of operation. The hull design and styling deliver refined performance suited to large bodies of water.

The boat accommodates multiple passengers with dual captain chairs featuring bolsters, rear dual adjustable lounge seats, and a dining table with pole. Forward-facing seating includes retractable bow armrests. A single head with vacuflush toilet, holding tank, and discharge system serves the cabin, along with pressurized water systems and front and rear showers. A hydraulic zero-entry swim platform with a power tower and articulating bimini system enhance usability and shade.

Equipment throughout reflects thoughtful design. Dual 12-inch Simrad touchscreen displays with GPS and engine information dominate the helm. Auto-active trim tabs and trim work with a windlass anchor. A Fusion upgraded sound system with carbon fiber speakers and transom controller provides entertainment. Dual batteries with dual main switches and a pro sport dual battery charger ensure reliable power. Ambiance and underwater lighting set the tone throughout the boat. Deck storage includes bow and side lockers plus a ski locker, while sea deck flooring runs across the main areas. Additional features include a wind block door, tilt wheel, shore power, dock lines, and a firebox fire suppressant system.
