A rare opportunity to own an exceptionally well-maintained 2011 Sea Ray 470 Sundancer with a documented history of care, upgrades, and pride of ownership.
Having personally sold this vessel to its current owner six seasons ago, after previously representing its second owner, I have had firsthand knowledge of this yacht for nearly a decade. Throughout that time, I have witnessed an unwavering commitment to maintaining and improving this vessel, with no shortage of attention given to its mechanical systems, appearance, and overall condition.
Over the past ten years, this Sundancer has benefited from an extensive list of upgrades, preventative maintenance, and improvements, including but not limited to:

Powered by Cummins Zeus QSB 6.7L 480 HO diesels with just over 700 hours, this 470 Sundancer offers an exceptional combination of performance, maneuverability, comfort, and style.
What truly sets this vessel apart is its ownership history. Having known the boat and its owners for nearly ten years, I can personally attest to the exceptional level of care it has received. This is not simply another used Sundancer. It is a yacht that has been continually maintained, upgraded, and cared for by owners who took genuine pride in keeping her in outstanding condition.
This boat has been babied, and it shows.
For the discerning buyer seeking a Sea Ray 470 Sundancer with low hours, an extensive maintenance history, and exceptional overall presentation, this is a must-see vessel that deserves serious consideration.

Sea Ray 470 Sundancer: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Sea Ray 470 Sundancer represents a high standard of fit and finish in the express cruiser category. Powered by twin Cummins diesel engines paired with Zeus pod drives, this 47-foot vessel combines luxury and performance. The boat features a thoughtfully designed layout with multiple social and operational areas, making it suitable for comfortable cruising and entertaining.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
Boarding the 470 Sundancer is facilitated by a full-beam swim platform extending five feet from the transom, leading into an aft cockpit equipped with L-shaped seating for social gatherings. The vessel offers easy access to the bow via cabin side grab rails and protective side rails that comply with ABYC height standards. The bow is outfitted with a Lumar windlass and a stainless steel anchor roller mounted on the deck, ensuring reliable anchoring capabilities. The helm deck benefits from a large two-piece windshield with pantograph wipers and washers, while an opening side window and sunroof provide excellent ventilation and fresh air circulation.
Interior Systems and Helm Station
Below deck, the ship's electrical panel is conveniently located behind mirrored doors adjacent to the companionway, divided into 240-volt, 120-volt, and 12-volt sections for organized power management. Engine room access is provided through an electrically operated lift hatch controlled from the helm, complemented by an additional hatch in the salon for enhanced visibility and maintenance access. The helm features a starboard control station with a gel-coated dash, dual E-125 widescreen displays including high-definition radar, and a leather-trimmed compass panel. Controls are logically arranged with a vessel view display, electrical switches, precision pilot control pad, DTS controls, and the Zeus joystick. The double-wide helm seat offers adjustable fore and aft positioning, flip-up bolsters, flip-down armrests, and a footrest.
Power and Performance
The standard propulsion consists of twin 473 horsepower Cummins QSB 6.7 engines connected to V-drives, while the test boat was equipped with optional Zeus pod drives featuring joystick maneuverability. The 470 Sundancer measures 47 feet 3 inches in length overall, with a 14-foot beam and a draft of 51 inches. During sea trials, the boat achieved a top speed of 32.1 knots at 3350 RPM, consuming 48.8 gallons per hour and providing a range of approximately 207 nautical miles. The most economical cruise speed was 27.3 knots at 3000 RPM, reducing fuel consumption to 38 gallons per hour and extending range to 226 nautical miles. Fuel efficiency remains consistent across a broad throttle range, allowing operators to adjust speed based on conditions without significant impact on economy.
Handling and Ride Quality
The 470 Sundancer delivers a comfortable and stable ride, exhibiting excellent wave penetration with minimal spray directed away from the windshield. Testing in windy conditions revealed no pounding, and the vessel maintained remarkable stability, allowing crew and guests to move about safely without needing to hold onto rails or furniture. Acceleration produces minimal bow rise, preserving visibility. The boat handles turns with a moderate lean, completing a 360-degree turn in 17 seconds within approximately two boat lengths. Trim tabs operate effectively on automatic mode, simplifying operation. Close-quarters maneuvering is notably precise, with responsive helm control and intuitive joystick docking capabilities that require no additional button activation, enabling slow, controlled approaches even in crosswinds.
Conclusion
The Sea Ray 470 Sundancer impresses both in terms of luxury fit and finish as well as on-water performance. Its combination of powerful yet efficient propulsion, stable and comfortable ride, and user-friendly controls make it a compelling choice for cruisers seeking a capable and refined express cruiser. The vessel's design supports both enjoyable social experiences and confident handling in various conditions, underscoring its versatility and quality.
