Owners describe the 290 AmberjackfromSEA RAYas a true hybrid: a family weekender for two to three people and a capable nearshore/coastal fishing platform. Across model years roughly 2000–2009, it’s often praised as “very big for a 29-footer,” with a layout that feels roomy for weekends. A large fuel tank around 230 gallons is frequently cited as a practical advantage for extended coastal runs.
On the water, reported cruise sits in the mid-20s knots (about 24–28 kt), with top-end figures commonly in the high 30s to low 40s depending on engines. Owners say it tracks well and can run acceptably in 3–6 ft when driven correctly, but also warn that it’s a “very solid bay boat” that will pound hard in larger, confused seas or if trimmed poorly—technique matters offshore.
Overnighting for two to three is comfortable thanks to basic amenities (galley, head), yet several owners call the mid-cabin tiny and note limited storage for longer trips; a generator is often a desirable, and sometimes absent, option. Maintenance notes from the community highlight good engine-bay access with outdrives, alongside used-boat watch items such as electrical/gauge gremlins, minor deck/cowl leaks, and the need to survey stringers/core, thru-hulls, corrosion, and exhaust/manifold history on older examples.
