Key Features & Specifications
• Power & Performance: Equipped with the upgraded MerCruiser 425 HP V8 engine (8.2L Mag HO) paired with a Bravo Three dual-prop sterndrive. This top-tier engine option delivers exhilarating acceleration, reliable cruising, and a top speed around 50 MPH for thrilling rides. The dual counter-rotating propellers provide quick planing and nimble handling for watersports and confident offshore performance.
• Hull & Ride: 27′ length with a broad 9′ beam for superb stability and space. The fiberglass deep-V hull (Sea Ray’s QuietRide technology) slices through chop for a smooth, quiet ride. With a substantial dry weight (~5,555 lbs), the 270 SLX feels solid in varying conditions, ensuring comfort and safety for all on board.
• Luxurious Comfort: Plush light colored upholstery and ergonomic seating throughout, with spacious bow lounges and convertible sunpad seating aft. Seating capacity for up to 12 guests means you can bring the whole crew. There’s a convenient bow walkthrough door to block wind on cooler days and allow easy movement around the boat. • Entertainment & Amenities: A well-appointed cockpit features a bar and storage,
perfect for serving drinks and snacks on the water. A removable cockpit table creates a dining or entertaining space. The premium stereo system provides great sound for music, and LED lighting throughout the interior adds a stylish glow for evening cruises. There’s even snap-in carpeting underfoot for comfort, which can be removed for easy cleaning.
• Helm & Electronics: Sleek helm station with a dash-mounted Northstar chartplotter/GPS and compass for safe navigation. Full instrumentation and Digital Throttle & Shift controls (Mercury DTS) make driving effortless with smooth, precise control. The helm and companion seats have flip-up bolsters and swivel function, allowing the captain and co-captain to join the conversation at rest.
• Swim Platform & Ladder: Extended integrated swim platform with a concealed swim ladder mounted underneath for easy water access. No cumbersome hatch on top – just a clean design and simple deployment for swimmers and watersports. A transom shower is also included to rinse off after a dip.
• Quality Construction: As part of Sea Ray’s SLX series, this boat was built with the highest standards. You’ll find stainless steel hardware throughout (cleats, grab handles, cup holders) and even stainless steel exhaust manifolds for long-term durability – a big plus for longevity. Sea Ray’s original Limited Lifetime Structural Warranty on the hull and deck reflects the confidence in its build quality (transferability of warranty may vary, but it underscores how well-built this boat is). Every detail, from the solid windshield frame to the handsome gelcoat finish, exudes quality
Impeccable Condition & Maintenance
• Low Hours & Excellent Condition: Only 213 hours on the engine! This limited use (averaging ~15 hours per year) means the engine and mechanical systems have plenty of life ahead. Both cosmetically and mechanically, the boat is in excellent condition – shiny gelcoat, clean upholstery with no rips, and all systems functioning properly. It truly shows like a much newer vessel.
• Professional Maintenance: This 270 SLX was captain-maintained and used as a tender to a larger yacht. That means it received constant professional care. All manufacturer-recommended services were performed on schedule by a knowledgeable caretaker. All maintenance records are available, documenting the diligent upkeep. You can buy with confidence knowing the full history and that no service was skipped.
• Freshwater & Saltwater Use: The boat has been enjoyed in both freshwater and saltwater environments, showcasing its versatility. Importantly, after any saltwater outings it was thoroughly flushed and cleaned immediately (thanks to that attentive captain!). The result is no corrosion issues – the engine, outdrive, and fittings are all in great shape. The boat has often been kept out of the water (on a lift or aboard the yacht) when not in use, preserving the hull and reducing wear.
• Recent Upgrades: Being maintained as a yacht tender, any needed updates were done promptly. Stainless steel exhaust manifolds (an upgrade over stock) were installed, which is a major benefit for corrosion resistance. The interior lighting was upgraded to LED for better efficiency and modern style. The batteries are healthy, and the boat is fully detailed and waxed regularly. There’s very little this boat needs – it’s truly turnkey
Additional Equipment & Package Options
• Covers & Canvas: Included with the sale are full canvas covers to protect the boat. This includes a custom snap-on bow and cockpit cover set (great for overnight storage or trailing), as well as a full mooring/storage cover. These canvas pieces keep the interior spotless when the boat is not in use – a testament to how well it’s been cared for. A bimini top is also included, providing shade on those sunny afternoons. (The original owner invested in the canvas package, which is ideal for preserving that like-new interior.)
• Trailer (Optional Bundle): While the asking price is listed for the boat alone, we are offering a matching triple-axle trailer (with custom wheels) as part of a bundle for an additional $4,500. This trailer is custom-fitted for the 270 SLX, making launching and loading a breeze. It has a valid VIN and is road-ready with good tires, lights, and brakes. Take advantage of this bundle to get the complete package – perfect if you plan to tow the boat or store it on land. (Bundle price for boat + trailer would be $64,498 total.)
• Accessories: We’ll include all the essential accessories so you’re ready to hit the water from day one. This includes dock lines, fenders, life jackets, and an anchor with rope. The boat also has an integrated cooler and we’re happy to throw in some courtesy items like cleaning supplies. Everything you need for a safe and enjoyable boating experience is either already on board or easily accommodated by the plentiful storage. Pricing, Location & Next Steps
