48' Sea Ray 480 Sundancer
$250,000 | 1991 | Tiburon, CA
Description
Refurbished inside and out this 480 Dancer is truly one of one. Her inviting two-cabin/two-head layout offers a massive salon with large galley all made possible by a palatial 15foot beam. Whether entertaining afternoon guests or overnighting for the weekend your stay is made comfortable by the 3-zone reverse cycle heat & air conditioning system. The ship's inverter powered by the massive 24volt battery bank ensures you can live off the hook for days on end.
At the time the 480 was the largest Sundancer Sea Ray built. Hull #6 built at the Palm Coast site has been kept up with an open checkbook by the current owner for the past 22years. And it shows. In 2008 she was re-powered by digital fuel-injected Cummins 550s along with all-new running gear. Her mains (under 400hrs) and generator were both fully serviced June 2022. Remote-operated FreedomLift davit system also included.

Powerboat Guide Description
Sea Ray’s largest Sundancer model ever when she was introduced, the 480 Sundancer (called the 500 Sundancer in 1992–99) was one of the most impressive express yachts on the market during the 1990s. With her long foredeck and sleek profile, the 480/500 combined luxury and extravagance in what was once a state-of-the-art package. Her sheer size is impressive enough, but it’s the expansive, high-style interior that caused first-time viewers to catch their breath. Here, laid out on a single level and presenting a panorama of curved bulkheads and designer furnishings, the Sundancer’s accommodations rival those of a small motor yacht. There are two private staterooms, two heads (each with a stall shower), a plush U-shaped sofa aft, and a wide-open salon with excellent headroom throughout. The cockpit—with its triple companion seat, full wet bar, and circular lounge seating—can seat a small crowd. Additional features include a reverse sport arch, wide side decks, and a huge engine room. Early models with 485hp 6-71 V-drive diesels cruise in the low 20s (about 25 knots top). Later models with 735hp 8V92s cruise at nearly 30 knots. Note that oval ports replaced the original sliding cabin windows in 1994.
