While most people love sitting in the sun, there are those among us that burst into flame at the mere thought of such exposure. But that doesn’t mean that they have to be excluded from the good times as Sea Ray creates this optional, and fully adjustable, sunshade for the bow. What a welcome addition.

With the transom seat pushed forward 12" (30 cm) a large swim platform is revealed and it is the appropriate size for a 32-footer. Here we see the optional extended swim platform added, along with optional Flexiteek on both surfaces. Note that the swim ladder is mounted on the centerline, something rarely seen on sterndrive boats due to ABYC standards. Because the lower units are so far away from the lip of the extended platform, this is permitted.

Having the cockpit and bow all on the same level has its value and the length of the 350 SLX seems to go on and on.

The flying bridge ladder is necessarily steep to keep it as unobtrusive as possible, but Rampage adds hefty handrails for extra security.
