Sea Ray 440 Sundancer

The 1992 Sea Ray 440 Sundancer blends performance, luxury, and style in a way few express cruisers of her era can match. Originally introduced as the 420 Sundancer in 1990, the model was renamed the 440 in 1992, with several updates and refinements that highlighted Sea Ray’s leadership in the cruising market.

With bold, sweeping lines, a spacious open cockpit ideal for entertaining, and an expansive two-stateroom, single-head layout below, this boat delivers comfort both underway and at anchor. She rides on a solid fiberglass deep-V hull with prop pockets (introduced in the 440 model) to reduce draft and improve efficiency.

This particular 440 Sundancer has been lovingly cared for, upgraded, and consistently maintained by her current owner, who purchased the vessel in 2023. She features twin Cummins 6BTA 300hp diesels, reliable navigation electronics, an upgraded generator, recent bottom work, and tasteful interior amenities for extended cruising or liveaboard use.
