1999 Sea Ray 400 Sundancer
There's a reason the Sea Ray 400 Sundancer remains one of the most sought-after American sports cruisers ever built.
She offers true 40-foot presence, a massive cockpit for entertaining, genuine two-cabin accommodation -- and in this case -- extensive recent mechanical and electrical investment already completed.
This is not a project boat. This is a cruiser that has been properly spent on.
Powered by twin Caterpillar 3116 diesel engines with updated hours of just 458 (port) and 448 (starboard), she delivers reliable torque, strong offshore capability and the kind of mechanical simplicity serious boaters appreciate.
Over $60,000 has been invested in the past 24 months, including:
Service Highlights
- Major slip & antifoul completed
- Cooling systems refreshed
- Seawater pump replaced
- Genset serviced & repaired
- Complete battery & charging system overhaul
- Windlass upgraded with wireless remote
- Bilge system upgraded
- Significant cosmetic refresh
The heavy lifting has been done.
The 400 Sundancer is famous for her beam, and you feel it immediately. The cockpit is expansive with wraparound seating, wet bar, excellent helm visibility and easy flow for entertaining. Below deck offers a bright, open saloon, forward master cabin, private guest cabin and separate shower and head -- making her a genuine weekender and highly capable coastal cruiser.
Most boats of this age require significant catch-up spending. This one has already had the cheque written.
She presents honestly, runs well and offers exceptional value for a diesel-powered 40-footer with this level of recent investment.
If you've been looking at 40-foot cruisers and are tired of deferred maintenance boats, this is the one for you!
