Forty knots at the top end is a serious number for a boat under eight metres.
The standard 350 horsepower MerCruiser 6.2L is the most powerful base engine in her class, pushing her to a 25 knot cruise and a 40 knot top speed with genuine authority rather than strain. A 300 horsepower option trims the output for owners who prioritise efficiency, while an 8.2 litre, 380 horsepower MerCruiser sits at the top of the range for those who want the sharpest acceleration available. Digital throttle and shift, paired with speed based automatic trim, keep the handling smooth through the transition onto plane. With 246 litres of fuel aboard, she manages a useful 300 nautical mile range, among the longest legs in her segment.
Her sheerline moves in an S, not a straight line, and it changes everything.
A centre crease runs down the topsides to a pill shaped badge, and a forward jaw line sharpens the bow rather than rounding it off, details that mark her as the first hull in Sea Ray’s current design language. Deep freeboard and stainless grab rails give the profile a settled, confident stance at rest, while a manual Power Tower sunshade extends over the cockpit and can stay deployed even underway, unusual for a boat this size. The result is a sportboat that looks considerably more resolved than the model she replaces, her silhouette drawn by Sea Ray’s own studio to carry through the rest of the range.
Eight guests sit properly here, rather than being squeezed in to hit a number.
The cockpit wraps an L shaped bench around a helm and companion seat, with a bench behind the helm adding further depth, and seating continues forward into the bow cockpit so no area of the deck goes to waste. Aft, a sun pad conceals a long locker beneath its port side, while a transom trunk holds an insulated cooler and line storage within easy reach. Sea Ray increased stowage considerably over the model she replaces, and that shows in dedicated compartments for pedestal tables, bow cushions and the boat’s systems, all accessed without disturbing the seating above.
Twin nine inch touchscreens at the helm bring genuinely current technology to a boat this size.
Simrad multifunction displays, VesselView engine monitoring and CZone digital switching give the captain full control from a single station, while speed based Active Trim adjusts automatically as the throttle moves. A Fusion audio system streams over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, with speakers built into the cockpit so sound carries evenly rather than concentrating at the helm. Inductive charging, USB points and a phone nook keep devices powered and out from underfoot, and gas shocks on every hatch and seat make the systems beneath simple to reach. It is a boat that feels engineered rather than merely equipped.
Built entirely in house, the SLX 260 is a complete Sea Ray proposition.
She measures 7.9 metres overall on a 2.6 metre beam, with a 1 metre draught that still allows access to shallower anchorages. Displacement runs to 2,812 kilograms, a figure that lets her standard 350 horsepower engine deliver genuine pace rather than merely adequate performance. New, she is priced from 120,000, positioned as the most focused, design led entry point into Sea Ray’s current range. For an owner who wants the newest thinking from the yard in the smallest available hull, the SLX 260 makes a clear case.
