The SDX 230 blends elegant design with powerful performance. With spacious seating and surprisingly abundant storage, it's the ideal option for boaters who demand both style and substance in a compact, trailerable package.
Four reasons the SDX 230 is built around your day on the water.
Standard Mercury MerCruiser 4.5L MPI ECT Bravo Three sterndrive (250 hp). Optional 6.2L upgrade to 300 hp, also offered with SeaCore freshwater cooling.
An aft lounge with an unobstructed swim platform lets you spread out and soak in the sunshine, with no awkward step-overs to interrupt the layout.
With purposeful compartments for your gear and a built-in cooler, this 23-foot sterndrive model keeps your essentials organized and within reach so you can focus on creating memories, not clearing clutter.
A spacious swim platform with the option to add a manual submersible step makes lounging or diving in easy. The three-position transom seat also easily converts to an aft-facing lounge perfect for soaking up the sun.
