Sea Ray introduces the brand-new SLX 260 and SLX 260 Outboard

Sea Ray SLX 260

May 23, 2022

Sea Ray is proud to announce two new models that will redefine the brand’s premium SLX line – the SLX 260 and SLX 260 Outboard. The new vessels offer boaters next-level luxury through elevated design aesthetics, optimized cruising comfort and a seamless command center. Available in both sterndrive and outboard propulsion from Mercury Marine®, the SLX 260 meets the needs of the modern coastal or inland boater.

Leveraging tailored, sophisticated style and easy-to-use amenities, the SLX 260 models deliver an escape from the day-to-day. Everything on the two boats has been carefully considered by Sea Ray in response to feedback from consumers. “The SLX 260, from bow to stern, was designed to give boaters an ideal day on the water, making it easy to relax and focus on what matters most – like cruising with friends and enjoying time with family. This model represents the future of our SLX line and creates the most premium experience on the water,” said Carrie Fodor, Senior Manager of Design Engineering.

The SLX 260 and SLX 260 Outboard are the latest boats to embody Sea Ray’s next-generation design, first seen on the Sundancer® 370 Outboard in 2021. “The SLX 260 is the first sport boat crafted with the new Sea Ray design language. The goal is to create models that are instantly recognizable, with elements such as the S-sheer line, dynamic center crease, elongated bow and integrated Sea Ray badge,” said Fodor.

“Last year the launch of our Sundancer 370 Outboard was met with waves of positive feedback from the boating industry and consumers,” said Keith Yunger, Sea Ray president. “Now, we’re excited to announce the SLX 260 and SLX 260 Outboard, representing an evolution of Sea Ray’s SLX line and also our dedication to delivering best-in-class new boats to the market.”

The SLX 260 is equipped with sterndrive or outboard propulsion. The sterndrive model is powered by a Mercury MerCruiser® 6.2L MPI ECT Bravo Three® engine with SmartCraft® Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS). The outboard model is propelled by a Mercury 300 Verado® engine with SmartCraft DTS.
