Three Sons, a Sea Ray Sundancer 60, is listed for sale with Atlantic Yacht & Ship and has an asking price of $769,999. The 2008, 34-knot-plus express cruiser has cruising accommodations for six within its three-stateroom layout.
Three Sons is powered by twin 1,100 hp MAN V-10 diesels, which is the same propulsion setup Yachting experienced during our initial sea trial of the Sea Ray Sundancer 60.
“With the luck of the draw, winds and seas were such that running offshore would have been at best unpleasant. Even the Intracoastal Waterway was stirred up, but the 60 had no problem slicing through the chop,” Yachting previously reported. “She came up evenly on a plane with no appreciable bow rise. Her two 1,100 hp electronically controlled, common-rail MAN diesels reached maximum turns in approximately 30 seconds without hesitation or clouds of black smoke, and I recorded a maximum speed of 34.8 knots.”

Sea Ray’s Sundancer 60 has a galley-down arrangement, with the salon and helm on the main deck. With nearly 360 degrees of glass and a sunroof over the salon, there is abundant natural light. The salon has a sofa to port and a slightly shorter sofa and lounge chair to starboard abaft the dual-seat helm station. Cherrywood adds a richness to the interior vibe.
Outside, the cockpit is well laid out for alfresco meals with friends and family. Pull up loose chairs to the fixed folding table and transom bench seat to create seating for up to six. More alfresco space is at the foredeck where you’ll find a two-person sun pad, a great spot to retreat with a book to after a morning swim.
The accommodation plan includes a full-beam (16’9″) master stateroom amidships with a queen berth, en suite head as well as a built-in sofa and stowage for extended cruising. The forepeak VIP stateroom has a centerline queen berth, a flat-screen TV and en suite head. The third guest stateroom, which can double as a crew quarters if needed, has bunk berths making it a solid fit for the kids.
The 60-footer’s hydraulic swim platform doubles as its tender stowage with removable chocks.
Other notable features on board Three Sons include Raymarine electronics with 9- and 12-inch Axiom multifunction displays, ST6002 autopilot, 240 VHF, FLIR thermal-imaging system, Bennett trim tabs with LED readout and MAN displays and controls.
From the Archive: Sea Ray Sundancer 60
“By the 1990s, Sea Ray had stretched the Sundancer concept to 63 feet. Transom-mounted Arneson surface-piercing drives kept machinery aft, optimizing interior space. The 63 was an impressive ride, but I have always felt her design was a step outside the box. While her 40-knot-plus top speed proved Sea Ray could compete in the high-performance yacht market, the boat did not seem in cadence with the Sundancer mantra. In light of this history, the 60 Sundancer shines. She achieves excellent performance without complication and carries a foot more beam than the 63.” – Yachting, April 2006
Where is Three Sons located? The yacht is currently lying in Washburn, Wisconsin.
