When you think Express Cruiser, it’s likely Sea Ray comes to mind, as the builder dominates this segment of the market. But rather than rest on a well-deserved reputation, the new Sea Ray SLX 400 OB reinvents the concept. Innovations abound from bow to stern, to provide full use of every inch aboard, including the open bow seating area, a fold-out swim terrace and a trio of 300-hp outboard engines whose placement allow more interior room on the deck area and down below. Other notable amenities include a well-equipped outdoor kitchen, a spacious bathroom, overnight accommodations, and a joystick system that lets even first-time boaters dock in the tightest areas like a seasoned pro. An app allows you to check on the boat’s systems from anywhere in the world; SeaRay.com
