Just listed! The timeless lines of the 2005-2010 Sea Ray Sundancer units can't be mistaken, and this all fresh water gem has many more wonderful years remaining to help provide her next owner an unforgetable on-water experience without breaking the bank on today's comparable sport yachts in-class. A meager 250 hours adorn her inboard VDrive 8.1S Horizons, and the current owner sure isn't afraid to keep his gently used baby pampered. Sure it shows in spades cosmetically, but the recent additions of new cockpit woven mat covering, new Garmin electronics, new now-added bow thruster (amongst other updates) assures you that "Tranquilo II" isn't simply a trophy that never gets taken out of the case. Whether a first time boat buyer looking to dip their toes into their first large craft or the discerning and experienced yachtsman, this '06 38DA should be at the top of your list.
Currently in the water here for easy showings, and the ability to execute surveys with sea trials upon an accepted offer can still be accommodated over the next few weeks before she's put away (indoor heated) for the offseason. Contact SkipperBud's - North Point today.
