Description
On deck, the cockpit of the 540 Sundancer has a stylish sport spoiler, custom slide - swivel flip-up helm seat and Euro-styled companion bench seat. The U-shaped seating area has an electrically actuated retractable sunpad and there's an optional recessed sunpad available for the fore deck too. Even though the 540 Sundancer can be comfortably handled by two, you'll most likely want to share the wealth of standard features with family and friends, including a wet bar with cooler and icemaker, an aft cockpit sun shade, cable TV outlet and a Clarion AM-FM digital cassette stereo with six-disc CD changer subwoofer, amplifier, four speakers, and cockpit remote control. Even with so much of the cockpit dedicated to passenger space, there's also abundant room for personal gear in the port and starboard side compartments and docking equipment stows away neatly in the aft deck. The large private cabin of the 540 Sundancer is just as well-appointed as the cockpit with granite-colored countertops, dimmable lighting, and handcrafted wood trim in either vitricor cherry or clear maple finishes. Custom curtains, deep-pile stain-resistant carpet and concealed floor storage accentuate the modern decor. The mid-ship master stateroom has a queen-size bed with innerspring mattress and a gas-assisted hatch that reveals carpeted storage underneath. There's also a standard entertainment center with a TV - VCR - radio combination and a Bose Acoustimass 3 speaker system with remote control. A full-size bed and additional storage space make the guest stateroom perfect company. Both the master and guest head areas offer a VacuFlush head, power vents, striking cultured marble flooring, and Corian countertops with Grohe designer faucets. In the salon, a curved Ultraleather HP sofa cleverly hides an electric slide-out bed. There's even a concealed privacy curtain that pulls out when needed. The hidden, but complete galley has a three-burner cooktop, refrigerator - freezer with icemaker microwave - convection oven and a convenience package featuring a Spacemaker coffeemaker. In fact, all the comforts of home are present in the 540 Sundancer, right down to the standard washer - dryer combination and salon entertainment center with a color TV - VCR with remote and a Bose Lifestyle 20 stereo system with Jewel Cube speakers and LS bass module. The 12.5 kW Westerbeke remote generator has its own instrument panel, and there are also four large 8-D batteries with main battery solenoids and a distribution panel for power monitor The new 540 Sundancer has a hydraulic lift swim platform, fiberglass hardtop, and a multitude of engine and electronic upgrades.

Additional Information
The Sea Ray 540 Sundancer remains one of the most successful large express cruisers ever built. By utilizing a raised helm design, Sea Ray successfully combined the social, open-air cockpit of an express boat with the interior volume typically reserved for aft-cabin motor yachts. With a nearly 16-foot beam, this vessel provides a rock-solid platform for offshore cruising and expansive entertaining.
Mechanical Performance & Navigation
Unlike many of its era, this 540 is equipped with Twin Caterpillar 3196 Diesel engines.
- Reliable Power: The 660 HP Cats offer the torque and longevity required for long-distance cruising, delivering a smooth and powerful ride through varying sea states.
- Modern Helm: The navigation suite has been significantly upgraded with Garmin 7612 and 7607 units, bringing modern touch-screen reliability to a classic hull.
- The "Heavy Lifter": The Hydraulic Swim Platform is a standout feature, allowing for effortless launching of a tender or jet ski, or acting as a private "beach club" while at anchor.
Luxury Below Deck
The interior of the 540 Sundancer is finished with handcrafted wood trim and high-end finishes that have stood the test of time.
- Salon & Galley: The salon features a curved Ultraleather sofa that converts to a bed at the touch of a button. The galley is a chef's dream, featuring Corian countertops, a three-burner cooktop, and a custom convenience package with a built-in coffeemaker and washer/dryer combo.
- Master Stateroom: Located mid-ship for maximum stability, the Master features a queen-size bed with an innerspring mattress, an entertainment center with Bose speakers, and a private head with cultured marble flooring and a VacuFlush system.
- Guest Suite: Forward is a second full-size queen stateroom, ensuring your guests enjoy the same level of luxury and privacy as the owners.
Outdoor Entertaining
The cockpit is designed for "sharing the wealth." It features a custom swivel helm seat, a Euro-style companion bench, and a massive U-shaped lounge. The wet bar is fully equipped with an icemaker and cooler, while the fiberglass hardtop and aft sunshade provide relief from the Florida sun.
