2000 Stingray 230LX

The 230LX is a bowrider with attitude. First, its blend of power and hull design guarantees sportboat-like performance. Second, it takes open bow seating to a new level of luxurious comfort with ergonomically inclined lounges and canted backrests that naturally beckon passengers to relax and enjoy the ride. Adding to the appeal are soft coaming pads with recessed stereo speakers and drink holders. Once you settle in you may not want to leave, so we even incorporated an ice chest beneath the forward entry step for added convenience.

The 230LX is also a looker. Contributing to its sleek appearance, the bow rails are mounted inside, the forward cleat is recessed, and the deck contour rises to absorb the rakish windshield so it looks integral rather than added on.

Rounding out the 230LX's appeal are a host of standard features that include a compass, CD player, rich graywood inserts and sport buckets with flip-up front cushions, to name a few.
