OCEAN DANCER

Cruisers OCEAN DANCER

Some boats just say Wow these owners Love this boat and have done so many extra things to improve her. Well, that boat is OCEAN DANCER.

A beautiful well-fitted Beneteau 40 CC she has been sailed and lived aboard for some years now by the same couple who are now ready to return to shore. Swallowing the Anchor...

A True Walk on Sail Away - leave tomorrow you can be in Bimini in one overnighter.

Just a few of the reviews:

This boat maximizes spaciousness and big-boat accommodations in a 40-foot hull — and all for a relatively low price.

Known for their stability and ease of sailing, she would be a fantastic boat for a cruising family to spend time in the islands or a seasoned veteran to seek further shores while doing so in the utmost comfort.

Her wide decks make moving about a breeze, the very large cockpit is great for entertaining or just enjoying the outdoors all while under the security of the custom built hard top. The custom deck box is huge enough to hold all the boats gear and a large family’s fun water toys. The sugar scoop stern makes boarding and getting into the water safer and loads of fun.

Downstairs is very well laid out in large spaces with the u-shaped settee table dining or entertaining is a breeze, the butcher block (custom) countertop in the galley not only looks great but is a functional piece of artistry. A full-size fridge has been added for those longer trips to the Bahamas or Caribbean (points unknown) and the need arises to store more perishable.

The spacious 3/4 berth and forward head make for a berth that is fully enclosable for guests or put crew up there, plenty of storage space throughout to store all the gear necessary.

Down the hallway and into the massive owner’s stateroom here you’ll find a centerline (extended) queen bed with en-suite full head.

Her spotless engine room floor and dry bilges show just how loved and cared for she is.

Here are just some of the many updates and upgrades the owners have done over the last few years:

Custom hard top with sliding access panels for easier entry into the cockpit. 3-4 yrs. ago.

Custom steps just outside the hard top for that extra lift.

Custom aft deck box. As mentioned above this thing is huge with tons of storage space.

All the stanchions were raised and re bedded.

Mast, standing and running rigging, and standing rigging were replaced brand new just 5 years ago.

And many more.

She was at the dock in Nanny Key. The boats around her sunk she never took on any water. But did receive damage to mast a Bimini top and stantions. When we purchased her the owner had a new mast and rigging for sale with the boat. Nanny Key rigging installed the mast and rigging $15.000. Just for the installation.  

The new electronics were added and installed there as well $12,500.

We had her in the yard for 5 months to bring her up to sailing standards.

We did a complete bottom job 3 years back taking the antifoul down to gelcoat then applied Interlux base of 3 coats of antifoul paint with 6 lbs. of granulated copper this was done in Indian Town marina.
