I have a brand new 2020 290 SDX OB.   Great boat.  But, at 2900-3200 RPM, the swim platform kicks up a spray from the port side that is caused by the swim step.   Sea Ray replaced the swim step with a modified version that has a gusset to try to seal some of the gap around the step where the water sprays through.  Much improved, but still a very wet sea platform on the port side.   Anybody else have this problem.  I’m still trying to figure out if there is a design flow or if the swim step on the 290 SDX OB was installed incorrectly.

Have you tried adjusting your trim while running to get it higher to reduce the amount of water hitting it? Thats the best I have. Good luck

Exact same problem on a 2021 290 sdx ob. It’s actually at MarineMax right now having it looked at
