Overview

Preliminary listing

Will be available to show mid May 2025

The 2008 Sea Ray 55 Sundancer (55 DA) is a luxurious express cruiser that combines sleek styling, strong performance, and high-end amenities — a flagship-style yacht in Sea Ray’s lineup from that era. It's very much a powerful sport yacht with big-boat feel and comfort, designed for entertaining and long weekends on the water.

Here’s the full breakdown:

  General Overview

  • Model: 2008 Sea Ray 55 Sundancer (DA = Dual Access / Docking Assistance, depending on who you ask — Sea Ray loves acronyms)
  • Length Overall (LOA): 58’7”
  • Beam: 15’11”
  • Draft: 4’6”
  • Displacement: ~52,000 lbs
  • Fuel Capacity: ~825 gallons
  • Water Capacity: ~200 gallons
  • Holding Tank: ~70 gallons

  Engines & Performance

  • Standard Power: Twin MAN CRM diesel inboards, V8-900s
  • Cruise Speed: 24–28 knots
  • Top Speed: 30–35 knots (depending on power and load)
  • Drivetrain: V-drive inboards
  • Joystick Docking: Some were outfitted with bow and stern thrusters for better close-quarters control, but no pods on this model

It’s got a solid deep-V hull and handles well for a boat of its size — smooth ride even in moderate chop.

  Exterior Features

  • Hardtop: Fully enclosed hardtop with sunroof and windshield vents — stylish and protects from elements.
  • Cockpit: Big U-shaped lounge, cockpit wet bar with fridge, icemaker, grill — perfect for entertaining.
  • Swim Platform: Hydraulic lift — great for tender storage or swimming.
  • Wide Side Decks: For easier forward access (not always a given on express yachts).

  Interior Layout

  • Salon: Rich cherry wood cabinetry, Ultraleather seating, and an open layout.
  • Galley: Full-sized, with fridge/freezer, microwave/convection oven, sink, and plenty of counter space.
  • Cabins:
  • Master Stateroom: Mid-ship full beam, with a queen berth, en-suite head and shower.
  • VIP Stateroom: Forward V-berth with private head access
  • Convertible Lounge: The salon sofa often converts for extra sleeping space

The 55DA is known for luxurious finishes, ample natural light, and solid headroom throughout.

  Electronics & Systems

  • Raymarine or Garmin electronics (depends on what was spec’d or updated)
  • SmartCraft diagnostics
  • Generator: 21.5 kW diesel genset
  • A/C & Heat: Zoned climate control for salon and cabins
  • Washer/Dryer combo often included
  • Gorgeous styling with a timeless, high-end look
  • Smooth and fast — cruises comfortably in the high 20s
  • True luxury interior — feels like a waterfront condo
  • Entertaining-focused layout with premium cockpit features
  • Strong resale value for its class

  Best For

  • Entertaining in style — especially at marinas or anchor
  • Coastal cruising, Bahamas runs, even light offshore
  • Owners who want high-end performance and living space
  • Great alternative to a Sunseeker Predator or Viking Princess
