Hi All: I just stumbled on to this site and am excited to see it and become a part of your family. I am a new boat owner out of Bay Shore, Long Island and keep the boat in Lindenhurst, Long Island at the Surfside 3 Marina.N.Y. I have just traded in my 270 Sundancer and moved up to a 400 Sundancer, 1997 with twin gas engines. This is a big step for me especially since I just started my boating life in March of 2006 for the very first time and the 270 was my very first boat. I thoroughy loved it but I'm afraid my wife was a bit nervous due to my lack of experience and she was not happy with the rockin' & rollin' of the single I/O , 8'-6" beam on the 270. She does like the room and wide beam of the 400DA and did seem a lot more comfortable on it when we sea-trialed it. I think it will prove to be an interesting boating season this year. We have a small dog, Corgi, and I plan to take him with us as often as we can. Anyway, great to meet all of you and look forward to sharing stories, tips, ideas etc with all my other new found boating friends and family. As a new boater, any insight would be greatly appreciated. Take care all and happy boating to all!
