Sept 10, 2024

Sea Ray is expanding its next-generation SDX lineup with two new models. The dynamic SDX 250 and SDX 250 Surf blend quality, functionality and capability to provide limitless fun. Available in sterndrive and surf configurations, the vessels feature powerful propulsion, abundant storage, optimized seating and premium amenities to suit any aquatic activity. Whether entertaining or wakesurfing, the versatile SDX 250 is well-equipped with plenty of room for full days on the water with family and friends.

“Following the successful re-design of the SDX 270 earlier this year, we’re thrilled to launch the new SDX 250 and SDX 250 Surf,” said Keith Yunger, Sea Ray president. “Both boats present space, storage and amenities to deliver endless adventure. Also, the SDX 250 Surf represents a brand-new 25-ft. addition to our surf lineup, complementing the recent introduction of the SDX 270 Surf.”

Offering capacity with capability, the SDX 250 models have a beam of 8′6″ in a 25-ft. vessel. The wide and open layout featured on both models has been optimized for space and comfort with premium amenities for all-day enjoyment.

Boasting impressive performance and power, the SDX 250 is propelled by a standard 300-horsepower Mercury® MerCruiser® 6.2L MPI ECT engine with a Bravo Three® drive, SmartCraft technology and Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS) controls. Showcasing an innovative wakesurfing system, the SDX 250 Surf is powered by a standard 300-horsepower MerCruiser 6.2L MPI ECT engine with a forward-facing Bravo Four S® drive, contra-rotating props, SmartCraft technology and DTS. The forward-facing drive sets up the boat for wakesurfing and improves maneuverability when docking or travelling at low speeds.

The SDX 250 Surf is outfitted with Sea Ray’s intuitive NextWave™ surf system that generates repeatable, rideable waves for wakesurfing and other thrilling watersports. The vessel’s transom is engineered to produce a clean wave with plenty of push while electric surf tabs, Active Trim and three ballast tanks featuring 1,550 lbs. of ballast control the height of the wave and produce a long or short pocket. Taking the guesswork out of configurating settings, the boat is equipped with a Sea Ray custom surf interface powered by Mercury Smart Tow® presenting three pre-set modes for surfing, wakeboarding and skiing/tubing. Also, boaters can use the visual display to adjust the settings with the touch of a button to accommodate riders’ preferences and skill levels.

More details can be found online including the electric-folding watersports tower, intuitive technologies at the helm, new enhanced cockpit features, convenient storage areas and new and improved bow and transom features.

Boaters can also customize their SDX 250 or SDX 250 Surf to match their preferences with an assortment of bundles and options.

The SDX 250 and SDX 250 Surf are now available for order in North America. Timing for international availability to follow. For more information about Sea Ray and to view the complete lineup, visit SeaRay.com
