Freshwater boat until 2025 • 483 engine hours • Cummins QSB 5.9 480 HP • Zeus Pod Drives • New Garmin 16" MFD & Radar
This 2013 Sea Ray 470 Sundancer is an exceptional example of one of Sea Ray's most desirable express cruisers. A freshwater boat that was kept under cover until the 2025 season, she has been exceptionally well cared for and presents as a clean, turnkey vessel.
With only 483 hours on her twin Cummins QSB 480 HP diesel engines, this 470 Sundancer offers the performance and efficiency of diesel power with the convenience and maneuverability of Cummins Zeus pod drives. The Zeus system provides excellent handling around the dock, precise low-speed control, and efficient performance underway.
Adding to her capability is a new Garmin 16-inch multifunction display with Garmin radar, bringing modern navigation and situational awareness to the helm.
An Exceptional Combination of Size, Layout & Performance
The 470 Sundancer was designed to provide the comfort and accommodations of a much larger yacht while maintaining the sleek profile and easy operation of an express cruiser. Sea Ray's thoughtful layout makes excellent use of the available space, with generous outdoor entertaining areas, a spacious cockpit, and a well-appointed interior designed for extended weekends and longer cruising.
One of the standout features is the cockpit hardtop with twin electrically operated moonroofs, allowing owners to enjoy an open-air cockpit on beautiful days while retaining the protection and comfort of a hardtop when conditions change.
Below deck, the 470 Sundancer provides a luxurious and highly functional interior with generous accommodations, a large galley, comfortable salon, private sleeping spaces, and the quality finishes expected from Sea Ray's flagship Sundancer line.

Combined with only 483 hours on the Cummins engines, this is an unusually attractive opportunity for someone looking for a large diesel-powered Sea Ray without stepping into a much newer price point.
The Onan generator has 780 hours, providing plenty of capacity for comfortable cruising and extended stays aboard.
Turnkey & Ready to Cruise
This is a very clean, well-cared-for 470 Sundancer that is ready for her next owner. The combination of low-hour Cummins diesels, Zeus pod drives, freshwater history, covered storage, modern Garmin electronics, twin cockpit moonroofs, generator, and Sea Ray's outstanding 470 Sundancer layout makes this boat particularly compelling.
If you've been looking for a large, luxurious diesel express cruiser with a great layout and an exceptional ownership history, this 470 Sundancer deserves your attention.
A must-see boat. Come take a look - we think you'll be impressed.

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.
