The PowerBoat Guide had this to say:
Long on styling and loaded with cruising amenities, the Sea Ray 400 Sundancer combines the key elements of an American sportcruiser including a large comfortable cockpit and spacious, well-appointed interior. She's built on a deep-V hull with a solid fiberglass bottom, moderate beam, and prop pockets to reduce the shaft angles of her V-drive engines. The mid-cabin floor-plan of the 400 Sundancer is arranged in the conventional manner with the owner's stateroom forward, and open galley in the main cabin, and a mid-cabin stateroom/lounge with a privacy door. Note that there's a second head adjoining the mid-cabin--a very desirable feature indeed. The forward head has a stall shower, and the level of fit and finish throughout is second to none. Topside, the huge U-shaped cockpit lounge will seat a small crowd, and the entire aft section of the cockpit sole raises up electronically without moving the aft seat for engine access. Foldaway boarding steps, a radar arch, and a transom storage locker were standard. An extended swim platform was a popular option in later models.
