2014 Sea Ray 250 SLX

Climb aboard and the first thing you’ll notice is how solid this 25-footer feels underfoot—high freeboard and substantial hull sides give everyone a sense of security, even when the afternoon chop kicks up. The upholstery has that plush, wraparound feel that makes guests linger, and the convertible cockpit seating lets you quickly shift from underway mode to a social layout at anchor. Storage is thoughtfully tucked everywhere: deep in-floor ski locker, dedicated spaces for fenders, and dry stowage to keep gear organized. At the helm, the tilt wheel and adjustable seat make it easy to dial in a comfortable running position, while the windshield offers excellent protection without sacrificing sightlines.

This 25-foot bowrider is dialed in for days spent running between harbors, coves, and waterfront hangouts where short hops and frequent stops are the norm. The size is ideal: big enough to feel confident in afternoon wind waves, yet compact enough for easy docking in busy marinas and tight fairways. That generous swim platform and transom access shine when you’re rafting up or spending time in the water. With its powerful single-engine setup, it delivers the punch to tow wakeboards and tubes while still cruising efficiently on longer coastal runs. The enclosed head and abundant seating make it a practical choice for full-day outings with family and friends.
