Summary
The 2001 Sea Ray 240 Sundancer (often colloquially referred to as the Sundowner) is the ultimate trailerable family express cruiser, perfectly blending performance with overnight comfort. Up top, the spacious cockpit features versatile seating with aft bench seats that fold down into a large sun pad, a convenient transom door, and a well-appointed helm designed for effortless cruising. Below deck, the surprisingly roomy cabin sleeps up to four guests across a convertible V-berth dinette and a private mid-stateroom bunk. Complete with a fully equipped galley, including a refrigerator, and sink, along with a fully enclosed head, this classic pocket cruiser provides all the amenities of a much larger yacht in an affordable, easy-to-manage package, "Zulu" has had the benefit of her current owner being keen to keep her up to date, including fitting Lithium leisure batteries, and a new Garmin Plotter in 2025.

Construction
Hull & Gelcoat Layers
Outer Skin (Gelcoat): Coated in a premium, high-gloss gelcoat finish that provides UV protection and colour retention.
Barrier Resin Layer: Built using high-performance vinylester resin directly behind the gelcoat skin. This specialized resin layer acts as a barrier to resist moisture intrusion, virtually eliminating the risk of osmotic hull blistering.
Woven Lamination: Features hand-laid structural fiberglass layers saturated with polyester resins to form a rigid, solid fiberglass hull bottom.
Structural Stringers & Grid
Internal Framework: Utilizes a heavy-duty fiberglass encapsulation grid system over structural wood-laminate cores to handle mechanical loads and hull flexing.
Engine Mounts: Secured into reinforced structural beds using lag bolts, anchoring the standard MerCruiser sterndrive powertrains.
Deck & Interior Components
Integrated Liner: Features a one-piece, molded self-bailing fiberglass cockpit liner. This adds rigid structural support to the upper deck and channels deck water directly overboard through scupper drains.
Cabin Steps & Access: Structural fiberglass steps are integrated directly into the lockable cabin sliding door. This provides secure, rigid access to the foredeck through the split opening in the walk-through glass windshield.
Hull-to-Deck Joint: Joined mechanically with heavy-duty stainless steel fasteners and sealed chemically before being covered by a protective PVC rubbing strip.
