To summarize, Sundancer II is truly a one-of-a-kind luxury pontoon boat in A plus condition with the additional special benefits of no new owner required purchases of operating accessories that comes included as the boat comes completely equipped and launch-ready for immediate boating enjoyment of your own choice.

It is worth repeating this custom-made boat is not market available but based on current optional build-outs to custom make like we did would be estimated $225,000 to $250,000 or more for a comparative quality & design. 

So why are we selling our beloved Sundancer II after significantly spending for extraordinary care and additional spending on all new upgrades & accessories?

No, we are not moving away, there is no panic sale, and as recently as end of May we had no pre-plan to sell. Each of the last 3 years on the Trent Severn Waterway’s highly visible “boat show” of every kind including amazing luxury yachts navigating year-long USA –Canada trips called “Great Loopers” we in Sundancer II were approached & received numerous inquiries for sale & graciously declined but it planted a seed. Considering all the years enjoying this boat so much as shown in our wonderful photographs it would be so nice to find a buyer who would enjoy and appreciate this truly wonderful boat as much as we have so we have considerably lowered the purchase price  to see if we can make that opportunity happen for a grateful purchaser.
