The SDX 270 and SDX 270 Surf come in sterndrive and surf configurations, with features and amenities intended to support all-day entertaining and watersports for the whole family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe SDX 270 and SDX 270 Surf are the latest boats in our lineup to receive a keel-up redesign, and the first SDX models crafted with our next-generation design language,\u201d Keith Yunger, Sea Ray\u2019s president, stated in a press release. \u201cAlso, the SDX 270 Surf is the first surf addition to our SDX Series.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Designers updated the seating on the SDX 270, which has flexible configurations. In the cockpit, there\u2019s an L-shaped bench, an integrated cooler compartment for drinks and snacks, and USB outlets. Options in this part of the boat include a table and inductive charging stations. For fans of board sports, there\u2019s a board-sized stowage compartment under the bench seat. Above the cockpit is an electric folding watersports tower (standard on the surf variation and optional on the sterndrive model) to provide protection from the elements. It has elevated tow points for wakesurfing or wakeboarding, and it can be lowered or raised for storage. It also can be ordered with optional tower speakers and board racks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n        <section class=\"hydra-container\">\n\n\t\t\t                <div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Sea Ray SDX 270 Surf\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf-50x33.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2024-SDX-270-Surf.jpg 2000w\" \/>                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n            <figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">The Sea Ray SDX 270 Surf is the builder&#8217;s first SDX Surf model, and the boat is standard with 350 hp MerCruisers 6.2Ls.<\/span>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Sea Ray<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t            <\/figcaption>\n        <\/section>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>Up at the bow, there\u2019s lounge-style seating, a bow ladder and another integrated cooler compartment for drinks and snacks. Owners who go with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/yachts\/sea-ray-slx-260-introduced\/\">Sea Ray<\/a>\u2019s Comfort Bundle will also have a table and a filler cushion that converts into a sun pad. The bow can further be upgraded with a manual sunshade. A windlass is available with Sea Ray\u2019s Anchor Bundle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another convertible sun pad is at the transom. Its backrest folds down to extend the area, with optional Fusion stereo controls close by. The swim platform has a concealable ladder and manual submersible step that\u2019s optional on the sterndrive variation and standard on the surf boat. The transom also has a ski tow eye attachment to connect watersports riders, and an in-sole compartment with drainage for stowing wet gear and lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SDX 270 models also have a starboard compartment to stow life jackets, towels and the like. Sea Ray\u2019s optional Water System Bundle adds a head with a sink and countertop. There is also an option to transform the compartment with cushions, making it a hangout area for kids. A portside cubby provides more stowage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the helm are Simrad\u2019s NSX touchscreen display (two of them on the surf variation) and Mercury Marine SmartCraft Connect engine monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Let\u2019s talk power packages:<\/strong> Standard engines on the SDX 270 are 300-horsepower Mercury MerCruiser 6.2Ls.
