Details
This Sea Ray 455 Sundancer will not disappoint. A superbly designed cruiser that genuinely delivers a sporty driving experience while maintaining the comfort and space expected of a 45-foot luxury entertainer.
Powered by twin Cummins 425hp diesels with Zeus pod drives, this vessel truly stands apart. On the water, the 455 feels light, responsive and confidence-inspiring. Cruising comfortably at 27 knots, she handles effortlessly in both mild and choppy conditions, offering excellent feedback at the helm. And with a top speed of 37 knots, this is a once off vessel.
Pod drives are more than just a nifty docking device, they require less power, less fuel burn and produce greater speeds over the shaft-driven equivalents.
The Zeus rear-facing pod drives and protective tunnel design provide outstanding manoeuvrability and control. Throttle response is immediate, and joystick docking makes berthing remarkably simple. Combined with Zeus SkyHook, holding position at a fuel dock or berth is effortless--this system truly has to be experienced to be believed.
Designed as the ideal entertainer, the cockpit features generous seating for eight or more, complemented by a factory-fitted cockpit table, wet bar and Isotherm fridge. EVA decking throughout the cockpit is comfortable underfoot and easy to maintain. Shade is well covered with the hardtop, aft awning and full camper enclosure, while the electric opening windscreen hatch allows cooling breezes to flow through on warm afternoons.
The raised helm offers excellent visibility and social seating for up to four, keeping everyone part of the action. Featuring Raymarine electronics, Zeus control, autopilot and VesselView, the driving experience is both intuitive and refined.
Below deck, the quality continues. Finished with high-gloss timber cabinetry, Sea Ray leather upholstery and stone benchtops, the accommodation feels spacious and luxurious. The galley is fully equipped with a Euro Kera twin-element cooktop, Tappan microwave and ample storage.
Accommodation includes a private twin cabin, two heads, excellent headroom throughout and abundant natural light from the saloon sunroof. Forward, the island queen master berth offers exceptional comfort, complete with overhead hatch, TV and a separate shower and toilet--features more commonly found on much larger vessels.
With its impressive beam, thoughtful layout and premium finishes, this Sea Ray 455 Sundancer feels like a significantly larger boat and is perfectly suited to family cruising or entertaining in style.
An exceptional example of one of Sea Ray's most popular models--inspection is highly recommended.
