When it comes to choosing a deck boat, Sea Ray stands out for its reputation for precision, craftsmanship and quality. The upcoming model that has caught my attention is the 2024 Sea Ray Boat SDX Series SDX290 OB, a boat that exudes luxury and performance on all fronts.
Navigating through the sea requires a solid construction paired with impressive specifications, both of which can be found in this Deck boat. Its overall length is reported at 29'3" with a 9'0" beam and a water capacity of 20 gallons. This, together with a fuel capacity of 131 gallons, means this boat is designed for long voyages.
For those interested in speed and performance, the Sea Ray Boat SDX Series SDX290 OB 2024 is powered by a Twin Mercury 200 FourStroke OB (400 hp) engine. It also includes some key navigational features such as a digital dash with Mercury VesselView Link and an integrated GPS for reliable and efficient travel.
Focusing more on the design, the boat comes with an attractive Arctic White Gel Coat and features a tempered/tinted windshield complemented by a stainless-steel latch. Also included are vital safety features like swim platforms, removable stern light, and appropriate drainage facilities. This boat is designed for endurance and ease of access.
Moreover, the helm contains modern instruments such as an Active Trim control and monitoring unit. For entertainment, there is a Fusion SRX400 12V marine stereo, Bluetooth compatibility, Wi-Fi Audio Streaming with Apple AirPlay 2, and XS Series Speakers. For those looking for a blend of technology and practicality, this is an ideal choice.
The interior of the SDX290 OB 2024 remains equally impressive. It comes with stainless-steel beverage holders, an insulated built-in cooler in the bow, a lockable glove box, and courtesy lighting. The cockpit also offers dedicated storage, an integral sink and faucet, and reclining transom loungers for comfort, making the boat a great companion for long trips.
The 2024 Sea Ray Boat SDX Series SDX290 OB indeed seems to satisfy the demands of every avid mariner. The manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) goes up to $192,265, but at See Dealer Cost, we offer insights into invoice pricing to help you negotiate the best price possible.
In conclusion, the Sea Ray SDX Series SDX290 OB 2024 combines power, luxury, and state-of-the-art design in one deck boat. Whether you are a sailing enthusiast looking for next-level experiences or simply appreciate well-made boats, the SDX290 OB 2024 is well worth a look.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
