Stingray Boats built its reputation on crafting high-performance fiberglass runabouts that deliver a comfortable, exhilarating joyride without crossing the line into genuine white knuckle territory.

According to Stingray’s Bob van Vollenhoven, that legacy lives on in the all-new 23 OSX, a delightful sportboat that blends comfort, versatility and performance in a sleek and elegant design.

Step aboard and the main cockpit invites you to settle in with a full-width, forward-facing stern seat that extends forward along each gunnel. Fully upholstered cockpit coaming allows the forward end of the loungers to serve as comfy inward-facing seats as well, giving the boat even greater versatility.

Amidships, the driver and navigator get to enjoy comfortable high-back captain’s chairs with ergonomic lumbar supports and a flip-up bolster.

The passenger console comes with a large, locking glovebox that provides plenty of space to securely stow valuables like wallets, car keys and cellphones, along with a gunnel-side drink holder and a useful grab handle.

The helm console is similarly styled, with a sporty chrome-on-black sport steering wheel tucked below a pair of flush-fit, touchscreen displays. A double row of watertight, backlit switches to the right of the wheel provide instant control of accessories like docking lights, while to left of the wheel is a Fusion RA670 stereo system.

Look down between the two consoles and you’ll spot a spacious in-floor storage locker that gobbles up large and bulky gear.

Up front in the bow you’ll find a pair of forward-facing lounge seats with full side coaming, stainless grab handles and flip-down armrests. Underway, these just might be the best seats in the house. A neat console serves each seat with its own dedicated drink holder, with two more drink holders located farther forward alongside a pair of aft-facing stereo speakers.
