1997 Sea Ray 290 Sundancer

This 32-foot Sea Ray express cruiser combines solid cruising capability with comfortable overnight accommodations. The single 7.4-liter MerCruiser V-8 produces 300 horsepower and drives a Bravo III outdrive with dual counter-rotating props, designed for efficient single-engine operation. The boat cruises economically at 20 knots and reaches approximately 30 knots at top speed. A GPS chartplotter with local charts and real-time fuel-flow monitoring allows optimization of fuel efficiency at different speeds.

Below deck, the cabin sleeps up to eight across three berth areas: a forward V-berth for two, an aft berth that converts to a U-shaped settee, and a dinette that folds into an additional bed for two. The galley is equipped with an electric cooktop, microwave, and large stainless steel sink. A 9,000 BTU marine air conditioner and heat pump maintains climate control, while a water heater with both engine and electric heating provides hot water for the shower. The Electro Scan marine sanitation system is Coast Guard-certified and requires no holding tank.

The helm features comprehensive instrumentation including VHF radio, depthsounder, knot meter, lighted compass, and controls for the newly rebuilt windlass, bow spotlight, and trim tabs. The deck is outfitted with a Powerwinch windlass, 20-pound Danforth anchor, swim platform with ladder, and a washdown pump. The cockpit includes a built-in cooler, snap-in carpeting, and a full Sunbrella canvas canopy with Isinglass windows. A Kohler 4 kW genset with only 140 hours of operation powers the air conditioning and other systems. The fiberglass hull has been recently buffed and waxed, and all stainless steel hardware shows minimal corrosion.
