Let’s drill into the details and talk about this popular runabout in detail!
Sea Ray 210 Select Review
Body and Features
The 2007-2010 Select 210 is often considered to be a rebranded 2004-2007 Select 200, and with good reason.
Aside from new deck layouts and some cosmetic changes, the 210 was identical to her predesessor.
For example, the 20-degree deep-V hull was carried over without any noticeable changes.
In terms of dimensions, the overall length of the boat was 21 feet with a beam of 8.5 feet.
Unlike other specifications, the dry weight had increased from 3,500 to 4,080 pounds.
Considering the weight of the liquids and a matching trailer, you could expect the gross trailering weight of a Select 210 to be around 5,500-6,000 pounds depending on the engine option.
While her hull remained unchanged, the top deck was redesigned with new seating layouts.
As reported by Boating Mag, the 210 was offered with three different seating configurations.
Each of these shared the same cozy bow lounge but with different cockpit architectures.
Labeled as a “Transom Bench Seat Seating Plan” the optional layout had two swivel bucket seats, a full-sized sun pad, and an innovative flip-up bench seat.
The latter featured a foldable design that converted the sun pad into a huge aft-facing lounger.
Folding up the port side of the sun pad revealed an unpadded walk-thru passage. This feature not only made reboarding much easier but also ensured less wear and tear on the upholstery.
The two standard floorplans offered more free deck space since they came standard with a smaller sun pad and two aft jump seats on the sides of the motorbox.
These plans could be opted with either double bucket seats or a port back-to-back lounger/swivel bucket helm seat configuration.
Seatings were covered by nice cushions with premium upholstery, which could legally accommodate 8 people.
The luxurious helm had an adjustable bucket seat with a flip-up bolster, 12V outlet, side panel storage, cup holder, and a tilt steering wheel.
Bordered with chrome bezels, the analog gauges were completed with a Smartcraft gauge, compass, switch panel, and stereo remote.
The audio system featured marine-grade speakers and a Clarion head unit nestled in a sizeable glovebox.
Families appreciated the spacious extended swim platform fitted with a three-step, stainless-steel ladder, a non-slip rubber surface, and a large Sea-Ray logo.
Other standard features of the boat included an anchor locker, insulated ice chest, snap-in carpet, grab handles, and drink holders.
You could load an abundance of gear into sizeable storage units located under the seats, sun pad, and floor. They were completed with a helm console locker, a glovebox, and side panel storage.
A more advanced dash with GPS, an automatic fire extinguisher system, a transom stereo remote, and a canvas package were also available as options.
The latter had curtains, a Bimini top, a cockpit cover, a tonneau cover, and a canvas storage bag.
Engines and Performance
The 210 Select was available with MerCruiser sterndrive engines with Bravo 3 or Alpha 1 legs depending on the package.
She came standard with the 5.0L MPI Bravo 3 while the 350 MAG MPI came as an option. These power mills delivered 260 and 300hp, respectively.
(In contrast, the predecessor 200 Select came standard with the 220hp 4.3L MPI, which could be opted for 260 and 300hp.)
From 2008 onwards, the optional 350 MAG could be opted with a DTS (Digital Throttle/Shift).
Even though the 210 Select wasn’t built to be a fast boat, she topped out at 48-50 mph even with just the standard 5.0L engine package.
You could also expect her minimum planing speed to be in the ballpark of 16-17 mph with a light load.
At this speed, the fuel consumption was north of 6 gph, which increased up to 18-19 gph at WOT.

Sea Ray 210 Fission Review
Often referred to as the Sea Ray 210 Fission, the 210 Select Fission was almost identical to the base Select, except for her watersport features.
This exciting package included a factory-installed wakeboard tower with wakeboard racks, lights, speakers, and a matching Bimini top.
The helm also enjoyed a much sportier dash and steering wheel with a grey/black color scheme and chrome features.
She also came standard with a custom color scheme and a more powerful audio system.
Thanks to these features, the 230 Fission was a great purpose-built watersport boat off the shelf.
Takeaways
It’s safe to say that the 210 Select was a rebranded variant of the deservedly popular 200 Select.
The new model came with new seat configurations and more bells and whistles, but her hull and main features remained unchanged.
She also enjoyed more powerful engine packages that delivered 260-300hp out of the box.
The 210 was also marketed in a watersport configuration fitted with a wakeboard tower and some extra accessories under the name of the 210 Fission.
Thanks to their reliability and durability, many of these boats are still in good shape
If you are considering buying one, you can find a plethora of 210 Selects for sale on Craigslist, eBay, FB Marketplace, and boat classifieds.
The asking prices of these used 21-foot bowriders average between $15,000 and $25,000 depending on their age, engine package, condition, and location.
