Description
The Sea Ray 44 Sundancer was yet another Sea Ray success story, setting the standard for express yacht styling and luxury cruising during her time. Her bold styling compared well with the best Mediterranean sport cruisers of her era, and with the large cockpit and spacious interior she made many of her European counterparts seem small in comparison. Built on a deep-V hull with POD Drives, this luxurious two-stateroom, two-head floorplan is an impressive blend of high-gloss cherry joinery, Ultraleather seating, and designer fabrics. Privacy doors separate both staterooms from the salon, and the Sundancer’s full-service galley includes an under-counter refrigerator/freezer in addition to Corian counters and hardwood flooring. Topside, nearly the entire cockpit sole can be raised at the push of a button for engine room access. An extended swim platform, split forward head compartments, transom storage locker, and underwater exhaust system were standard. Cummins 480hp Zeus Pod diesels cruise in the mid/high 20s (30+) top.

Manufacturer Provided Description
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.

The beautiful yet efficient galley includes a host of conveniences that will make each on-the-water excursion thoroughly enjoyable.
Vessel Walk-Through
Entering the main cabin of ROWDY RIO the galley is to the starboard side with a dropdown TV and is fully equipped with fridge, freezer, cooktop and convection/microwave. The salon sofa is to the port along with ample sized dinette table. The electric panel is immediately inside the access door to the port side. The Master/Queen berth is forward with TV & DVD, full size shower and full-size head separate from each other, closet space, and a pocket privacy door for the stateroom. The Guest Stateroom is mid-cabin aft with combo head, TV & DVD, closet space and pocket privacy door. The cockpit & helm area is large with plenty of seating for guests under the full hard top, and is equipped with AC/heat and full enclosures for your comfort at the dock; remove the aft enclosure pieces for cruising and you still have plenty of shad with the Bimini top. There is also a sun pad on forward deck for relaxing, and a transom door to the extended swim platform for access in and out of the water.
