2006 SEA RAY 44 SUNDANCER – LOADED AND UPDATED PRICED TO SELL
We just took this cream puff to Bahamas for the Memorial Weekend (’16) and had a blast. She’s truly the definition of what a luxury sport yacht is all about – form AND function meets performance and fuel efficiency!

Prior to our weekend getaway our 2006 2-stateroom diesel Sundancer was serviced to the teeth and all systems were gone thru and tested – from AC to cockpit TV (we just updated the DirecTv Satellite) to toilet systems (x2), canvas, GPS charts, updated Vessel View, Newer E120 Chart Plotter, new zincs, oil, filters, fridges – the works – everything is up to snuff – ready for her new owner!

Take a moment to check out our in-depth walk-through video on our Youtube channel (also posted below) where we go thru all the vitals.

As you can tell, this is a very well-equipped 45-foot diesel 2-stateroom Sundancer which is loaded, serviced, and updated. All the expensive extras such as the Sea Ray Navigator II System, Twin-QSC 500 Cummins Diesels, Radar, Hard Top, Fresh Cockpit Upholstery, Bow Thruster, DSS Satellite TV System, Updated Canvas and more. Recent bottom paint, engines and generator service are up to date. Boat is turn key ready to go. The dinghy in the photos is brand new as of May ’16 and so is the 9.9 hp 4-stroke Mercury kicker motor. The tender and motor is NOT part of the offering but could be purchased separately.

NOTE: This is the most aggressively priced ’06 44 Sundancer on the planet (and arguably the most amply equipped as well).

Sea Ray writes”..Sleek styling, a large, comfortable cockpit and a luxurious interior that sleeps plenty are just the right formula for endless fun in the 44 Sundancer. A wealth of instrumentation and information is at the captain’s fingertips, and twin 8.1 S Horizon MerCruiser® gasoline V-drives will get you to most any destination with ease. The beautiful, yet efficient, galley includes a host of conveniences that will make each on-the-water excursion thoroughly enjoyable.”

• The huge cockpit sets an unbeatable stage for fun in the sun, with abundant seating, a portside wet bar and convenient passage to the wide swim platform through the transom door.
• The adjustable captain’s chair faces a wrap-around console with a wealth of instrumentation and information at your fingertips, including a Raymarine® package with GPS and VHF radio.
• The salon’s curved sofa seats a crowd at party or dinner time, and sleeps two in comfort overnight, when converted to a bed. Shown here with optional hi-lo dining table.
• The forward stateroom features a full-size pedestal bed with innerspring mattress, pillows, sheets, and coordinated spread. Hanging lockers with lights and port side shelves ensure storage space.
• With a convertible sleeper/sofa, the mid-stateroom provides an intimate conversation area during the day and extra sleeping quarters at night.
• The galley is as efficient as it is beautiful. The under counter refrigerator and freezer stocks plenty of food for an extended cruise. There’s also a recessed two-burner stove, microwave oven, and coffeemaker.

WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT THE 44 SUNDANCER…

This could quite possibly be the most stylish Sea Ray we’ve seen so far. A totally new model and full of creature comforts, performance, and styling that would be right at home on the Riviera. But the curved lines don’t end with the hull. Graceful lines are featured throughout the boat below as well as on deck.

Up at the bow was a windlass with a plow anchor and foot switches flush mounted in the port side deck. But in case you lose power, a hand crank is affixed to the underside of the starboard rope locker hatch. And for the captain that can’t be bothered to walk forward to watch the anchor line slip overboard, there are also controls at the helm. As for the previously mentioned hatch, she has two of these, one on either side of the windlass. The lockers are spacious and have gas assisted cylinders to lift and hold open their hatches. You can always tell when a “been there done that” boater has been in on the design. As with this boat, it has a wash down faucet located in the rope locker for cleaning the anchor before being brought onboard. Just forward of the port rope locker was a remote control search light with double bulbs for additional power and light. There were two large smoked glass hatches on the foredeck in addition to two stainless steel handrails with a roomy sunning pad made to fit between; the ladies will love it.

Moving aft on either side of the raked aluminum windshield were comfortably wide decks with ample stainless steel handrails. The lower center windshield opens and closes remotely and does a good job allowing air into the helm area. Well protected behind the windshield is the console and helm. From radar to GPS this baby is dressed to kill. Most of these fancy electronics are options, but you can equip yours as you please. The console is well laid out with rocker switches and large, easy to read gauges. The dash and console are a series of curves and angles that creates not only a very functional control center, but an eye pleaser as well. Wisely, Sea Ray has separated the throttles and transmission on either side of the adjustable helm. This test vessel was equipped with a full canvas enclosure that really helped on the day we tested the boat, a bit cold and raw.

When following the 340 out of harbor, the 44 seemed to gain so quickly that I kept checking the GPS to see just how fast she moved at idle. She was doing seven mph at idle with both engines ahead. This is not a problem but something to keep in mind when in a busy marina. Just alternate engines so only one is in gear the majority of time with the other in neutral. As for her handling at speed (up on plane) it was not very responsive. I tried to get her into a gunwale turn and it just wasn’t going to happen. This gal needs turning room. What I’m really saying is that she looks great and runs like a sport boat but handles like a 45-foot motor yacht.

I found power to be a bit soft in the low end when doing the 0 to 30 mph sprints. But hang onto something at about 1800 rpm because the turbos kick in and she really rocks. All this power came from a pair of big six cylinder Cummins diesels fitted to ZF, V drives and transmissions. As for the engine room, it was a bit tight between the engines, but access was relatively good to all areas. The engine room hatch is the whole cockpit area and I mean all of it. Needless to say, electric power is needed to open such a large hatch but there is near full-beam access once opened. This test boat had a Glendinning synchronizer installed, also an option.

The aft cockpit was definitely party central, having a plush wrap around seating arrangement on the starboard side. But to really make it complete, a wet bar is installed on the port side with an icemaker below. Getting to the oversized swim platform is easy for this area through the wide transom door. The transom cleverly has a storage locker built in that you can get to from the swim platform with just about enough room to climb in and shut the hatch behind you. So no more dragging lines and fenders through the cockpit, everything is out of the water and out of sight. There’s also a handy place for shore power cords, phone cords, skis, and boogie boards as well.

Down below, the continental influence is seen in the beautifully curved wood cabinets and plush leather furnishings. There are sleeping accommodations for six in three separate compartments, not bad for her size. Forward, is a large berth with storage below and richly finished cabinets. This master stateroom has its own head on the port side and totally separate shower compartment on the starboard side. There is also a hanging locker, entertainment center, hatch and portholes not to mention loads of storage in draws. Aft are the salon and galley areas just loaded with rich wood and soft leather. A beautiful couch on the port side has a long graceful curve and thick padding but wait, the seat pulls out to reveal two additional cushions and fillers boards that makes for a full size comfortable bed for two. The galley on the opposite side has all sorts of curved wood and solid surface counters along with an entertainment center not to mention all the appliances found in a very well equipped kitchen.

Just aft of the galley and on the other side of two wooden siding doors was the second head. It was smaller but still had a shower and a drain in the fiberglass molded sole (floor). This head is part of the aft stateroom that is also an entertaining area with a plush leather L-shaped couch that easily converts into a great bed for two more. It has its own head and entertainment center with TV/VCR.

In the salon was a very large sky light with shade that just flooded the area with tons of natural light. Forward was a hatch that did the same for the master stateroom. This particular boat was equipped with a built-in vacuum cleaning system located below the companion way stairs to the cockpit.

Quite a vessel all in all. Just looking at her profile gives you the indication of style and grace not to mention speed, and she has that for sure. She has big open areas, like her cockpit, which are usually only found on larger vessels. Here is uncluttered comfort with plenty of room to move around and not step over each other with style and curved lines at every turn. All this and the time tested quality of Sea Ray…what could be better? (BoatTest)
