Excerpts from Review by Jack Horner:
"Some boat manufacturers change model names following design changes, but Sea Ray has been content to stick with a recognized and successful model even through some substantive changes. Such is the case with the 270 Sundancer, a small weekender/family cruiser which, in celebration of their 50th anniversary, Sea Ray reintroduced to their line after a hiatus of several years."

"No production boat manufacturers do a better job of installation of systems, equipment, and machinery than Sea Ray; the 270 Sundancer is no exception. The sport cruiser style of the 270 Sundancer is more reminiscent of a large runabout than a traditional cabin cruiser. The earliest model (1982-88) featured a swim platform mechanically attached to the transom while all subsequent models integrated a swim deck into the hull mold. The cockpit deck lifts to allow access to the engine and all models have either a permanent or removable seat at the transom. Forward is a step up to the bridgedeck and starboard helm on all models. The bridge deck seating arrangement is dependent on the location of the companionway, on centerline on some models, to port on others. Prior to 2009, models had very narrow side decks making passage to the foredeck challenging. The newest model offers a center opening in the windshield with steps to access to the foredeck."

"The cabin arrangement of all 270 Sundancer models has a separate mid-cabin sleeping compartment below the bridge deck, a feature that defines the 270 and all Sea Ray Sundancers. Other typical accommodations include a berth or U-shaped dinette that converts to a double berth forward, a small galley, an enclosed head and a long list of standard conveniences."

"Normally loaded, cruising speed will range between 20 and 25 knots and top speed between 30 and 35; a deadrise angle of 19 to 22 degrees helps to soften the ride in choppy conditions. Trim tabs were standard equipment on all models that I'm aware of to help getting up on plane and balance passenger loads."
