1998 Sea Ray 400 Sundancer

If one manufacturer is responsible for the concept of the express cruiser, it is Sea Ray. While nearly every builder has made their own express cruiser, the Sea Ray Sundancer is among the most well known and most distinctive. Aqua Therapy is pristinely polished, meticulously detailed, and includes comprehensive maintenance records. She is perhaps one of the finest examples of the Sundancer 400 line, and she awaits her new owners.

As you approach her hull, you will immediately notice her mirror-like finish. She is diligently treated annually with a wax-free, high shine polymer that resists water, UV degradation, and oxidation. While this makes for an unforgettable first impression, it is the standard to be expected as you board the boat and look around—she is beautiful and clean, inside and out.

All new canvas and eisinglass, secured with storm snaps, surrounds the helm station and aft deck. The camper top can be unzipped and configured as a bimini to keep the sun at bay. The space is multifunctional; an aft seating area with a removeable table can be used for meals, enjoying watersports or conversations. The large swim platform affords safe access to the water and back aboard, and a deck shower with hot and cold water tucks neatly behind an opening panel. An electric hatch conceals the engine room, which is as clean and tidy as the rest of the vessel! Moving forward, the helm station is wide and features plenty of seating. The upholstery on this boat is impressive—embroidered Sea Ray logos and color-coordinated piping are tasteful, yet subtle, and look brand-new. A complement of Ray instruments (radar, plotter, VHF, autopilot, and tri-data) provide all the information you need on passage. The long foredeck is perfect for sunbathing and provides a stable platform when anchoring; the electric windlass makes anchor deploying and retrieval simple and efficient.

Moving below, the main salon is both inviting and relaxing. With sofa seating to starboard and the long, flowing galley to port, the space is open and roomy. The galley features a solid-surface countertop with integral blender, a three-burner cooktop and deep stainless sink. A microwave and large refrigerator and freezer round out the culinary toolset, and a television positioned above can be seen from every angle! An aft seating area with a table is the perfect place to catch a meal, or perhaps a nap! The convertibility of the interior space is impressive, and with voluminous storage, there is a place for everything. All seating areas can be converted easily to additional private berthing, and an aft head with shower and vacuflush toilet complement the comfortable living space for your family or guests. Tasteful décor, soft overhead and valence lighting, and air-conditioning make the salon a space in which relaxing and unwinding are effortless!

The forward owner’s cabin, with its own private head and vacuflush toilet, occupies the forward third of the vessel. The shower is gigantic and separate from the toilet. With plenty of storage under and around the queen-sized berth, including hanging lockers and drawers, this can be your sanctuary on the water.

When it’s time to move, the twin Mercruiser 7.4L Horizon 454’s will handle the work with ease. Putting out a combined 760 HP through four-blade bronze propellers, the Sundancer 400 gets on plane quickly and trims easily thanks to well-positioned rocker switches for the trim tabs. With 680 hours on her well-serviced engines, Aqua Therapy is as reliable as she is beautiful. A Westerbeke 7kW generator with 350 hours will help keep the batteries charged when away from the dock. The boat is currently out of the water. She is winterized, polished, with touched-up bottom paint. She is turn-key!

Aqua Therapy is the ultimate package in a used yacht—beauty, pedigree, and diligent, meticulous ownership. When you step aboard you will sense the investment of pride and care the owners have made, and which they now offer to you.
