1989 Sea Ray SunDancer 300 (completely repowered!)
For sale at $20,000
A great vessel, indeed. Extremely reliable. We are the second owners. The first owner had the boat until 2018. We have just had the boat professionally polished and detailed ($1000.00). Don’t let the age fool you; as you know, they just don’t build them like this, anymore. You can take this boat anywhere! Rock solid!
At great expense ($25,000.00), we have replaced BOTH engines, in the last 36 months. One has 20 hours on it, the other about 30. They were broken in, properly and patiently. We have performed the two oil changes, right on time, of course. Props are in great shape. Everything professionally maintained, year after year. Always spends the winter on the hard, professionally shrink-wrapped.
She comes right up on plane, and cruises at 28 knots, effortlessly. Quiet and pretty darned efficient, too, for a vessel of this size.
Main V-berth sleeps two, comfortably. Aft cabin sleeps two kids or one adult. Mid-cabin berth sleeps two kids or one adult. The mid-cabin dining area is comfortable, seating four, easily. She has a full galley, with a two-burner stove (never, ever used), ice cold fridge with freezer, hot and cold running water. She is wired for cable tv. There is a marine head, with full pump out, but we rarely use it--and only for #1, please! The air conditioning rocks, as does the heater. Ice-cold or toasty warm.

Fresh water washdown
Swim platform
Ladder
Deck shower
Extra fishing rod holders

Excellent closet space and tons of storage
Two 70-gallon gas tanks

Marine radio
Bluetooth stereo
RayMarine Plotter, fish finder and GPS $2200 new (older model, but works perfectly)
New GPS receiver installed in 2020.
Everything works–refrigerator, stove, head, water system, windshield wipers, horn, GFI, cabin lights, nav lights, pumps–all well maintained & operable
RECENTLY INSTALLED
New electrical fixtures and wiring, GFI, etc. ($600)
New antennae ($350)
New Lewmar V700 chrome windlass ($1500)
New 200' anchor rode and extra-long chain ($250)
New oversized Lewmar claw anchor ($200)
New hinged bow roller ($200)
New batteries (3) ($600)
New dual throttles ($450)
New marine radio ($100)
New stereo (CD/Bluetooth) ($250)
New engine MerCruiser 350 installed 2019 ($12,000)
New engine MerCruiser 350 installed 2020 ($15,000)
New outdrive installed 2019 ($2800)
New canvas and eisenglass installed 2020 ($3600)
2 new tachometers June 2022 ($300)
4 new louvre vents ($150)
1 new raw water pump ($800)
Comes with lines, fenders, life vests, two large igloo coolers, shore power cable ($450)
In summary, this is a used, but well-loved boat. There are definitely some blotches on the upholstery and carpeting–that kind of thing--but overall she’s in great shape for her age. The price is not negotiable. We know what we have. Mechanically, she’s practically new. You’re getting the entire boat, stem to stern, for less than what we spent on the engines, alone. In other words, we’ve done all the heavy lifting, and now she’s yours to enjoy.
If you’re local, Western Long Island Sound, you have a slip paid for through October 2022! That’s another $1000 right there.
