The 2026 Sea Ray SLX 280 Outboard is a 28-foot fiberglass sports cruiser built for both socializing and high-performance boating. Twin Mercury 250 Verado outboard engines deliver 500 horsepower total, paired with Joystick Piloting for intuitive maneuvering. The boat features SmartCraft Digital Throttle & Shift control and an optional Dynamic Running Surface for smooth, efficient operation.
The layout centers on a spacious U-shaped bow seating area ideal for gatherings, with an expanded cockpit offering plush seating and integrated storage. A next-generation Power Tower—available as an upgrade—provides a sporty canvas top with an extendable sunshade, plus swiveling wakeboard racks for watersports gear. One head is included in the accommodations.
Onboard technology includes dual digital dash displays with Simrad touchscreen units showing Mercury engine data, Fusion marine audio, and VesselView Mobile app connectivity. LED RGB-W color-changing lights create ambient lighting throughout. The boat rides on a nine-foot beam and comes equipped with optional upgrades to enhance comfort and style on the water.
