2026 Sea Ray SLX 280

The 2026 Sea Ray SLX 280 is a 28-foot fiberglass sports cruiser built for performance and entertaining. It runs a single 430 hp MerCruiser 8.2L V8 engine paired with a Bravo Three X drive, delivering substantial power and responsive handling. The boat features a dual 12-inch Simrad NSX digital dash with SmartCraft Connect for navigation and engine monitoring, plus the integrated First Mate system for man-overboard detection and security. Additional mechanical systems include automatic fire suppression, a 12V refrigerator, and windshield wipers.

The deck showcases a modern aesthetic with a black hull, grey accent stripe, and white power tower. A manual submersible swim platform with grey SeaDek surface provides easy water access, while a stainless steel anchor and electric windlass handle anchoring duties. An illuminated underwater lighting package and docking lights complement RGB accent lights throughout. A side-entry step aids boarding from higher docks.

The interior combines stone upholstery with grey flooring and durable infinity woven vinyl in the cockpit. A bow filler cushion and dual teak tables—one forward, one in the cockpit—support relaxation and dining. The galley includes a pressurized water system with bow and transom sprayers, a vacuum flush head with holding tank, and an upgraded grey water system. An inductive charging station and premium audio system complete the cabin amenities.

Standard equipment includes fender clips, a flag pole and base, tonneau and cockpit covers, and a manual swim platform in grey SeaDek.
