Overview
The Sea Ray 370 Sundancer represents a significant evolution in the Sundancer line, emerging as the first product developed at the Brunswick Boat Group Technology Center. This model redefines expectations with thoughtful design and innovative features, blending comfort, style, and functionality. It is a yacht-certified vessel capable of entertaining up to 18 guests on the main deck and accommodating four overnight guests below deck.
Exterior Design and Cockpit
The cockpit is designed for social gatherings with opposing seating arrangements: a J-shaped lounge on the starboard side and an L-shaped lounge on the port side. Upholstery features a distinctive pill shape and a wave pattern that transitions into a diamond motif, a theme echoed throughout the boat’s decking and overhead. The hardtop stands six feet, eight inches above the deck and includes an opening sunroof and forward vents for ventilation. A port-side refreshment center is equipped with Corian counters resembling white onyx, housing an electric grill, a sink with a flip-up faucet, dedicated storage, a pull-out refrigerator, and a trash receptacle. The starboard side mirrors this design with additional beverage holders, courtesy lighting, and cell phone connectivity. A dual-function gate opens both inward and outward, cleverly folding down to remain hidden behind the bulwarks when open outward.
Swim Platform and Aft Seating
The swim platform extends 21 inches from the transom, maintaining generous space despite the presence of outboard engines. It features extensions on both sides and SeaDek matting with a diamond pattern consistent with the boat’s upholstery. A four-step reboarding ladder is angled to provide safe access away from the running gear and can be deployed with the hatch closed or opened for fresh water rinsing. The port side of the transom includes fender and line storage as well as a water toy inflator. The aft seating area converts into a sun pad by lowering the table and adding a filler cushion, or into aft-facing seating with gas-assisted, robust hardware for ease of use. A SureShade extendable awning deploys from the hardtop’s trailing edge to provide shade over this area.
Helm and Forward Deck
A notable departure from previous Sundancer models is the extensive use of glass surrounding the helm area. The windshield extends fully around with an option for full glass sides, enhancing visibility and natural light. The helm seat is 39 inches wide with a flip-up bolster and fixed positioning, complemented by 110-volt outlets, phone connectivity, teak-trimmed beverage holders, and diamond-patterned speaker covers. The overhead includes an opening sunroof and vent. Additional thoughtful features include a footrest for the captain and an offset companionway that preserves ample cabin access. The companionway door closes smoothly on twin gas-assisted struts and features an inward-opening air dam to prevent wind from forcing it open. The walk-through to the bow is facilitated by a gentle angled ramp, eliminating abrupt steps.
Bow Lounge and Entertainment
The bow area offers 24-inch-high bulwarks and rails for safety, with teak detailing around beverage holders and diamond-patterned speaker covers. Seating includes a three-across lounge with flip-down armrests and wraparound aft-facing seats. A pedestal table can be added for dining or lowered to form a sun pad. A flip-up seat back provides additional comfort when dining. The entire main deck can be shaded by a sunshade supported by four carbon fiber stanchions, effectively covering the boat.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the 370 Sundancer offers a spacious cabin with seven feet of overhead clearance and a 23-inch-wide companionway. Natural light floods the interior through a skylight and hull-side windows. The galley, located to port, features white onyx Corian countertops, a covered stainless steel sink, microwave, refrigerator, and dedicated storage. Forward of the galley is an L-shaped seating area with a 32-inch TV and a hanging locker. This seating area converts easily into a berth via a simple lift-and-push button mechanism, providing a solid and supportive sleeping surface. The mid-cabin serves as a comfortable social area with 43 inches of overhead clearance and 33 inches from seat to overhead. It includes hull-side windows, ultra leather upholstery, and concealed storage with ventilation for audio amplifiers. The seating converts into an additional berth by repositioning seat backs without the need for extra cushions.
Private Accommodations and Head
The head compartment is located starboard across from the galley and features a walk-in shower with a teak seat, black onyx Corian surfaces, a vessel sink, and hull-side windows in both the shower and main head area. Storage is thoughtfully arranged above and below the sink, and a rail alongside the toilet provides additional storage space. The overall layout maximizes space and convenience while maintaining high-quality materials and finishes.
Conclusion
The Sea Ray 370 Sundancer is a well-executed blend of innovative design, comfort, and functionality. It reflects Sea Ray’s commitment to responding to customer feedback and elevating the Sundancer experience. With yacht certification, ample seating and sleeping accommodations, and numerous thoughtful touches throughout, this model sets a new standard for the Sundancer line. Its combination of elegant styling, practical features, and quality craftsmanship make it a compelling choice for those seeking a versatile and comfortable express cruiser.
