Looking at 24' cuddys........can get a 2000 Maxum or 1998 Sundancer for the
same low, low price......same engine/drive on each.

Don't have too many boating friends to bounce this one off of. But it wold
seem like the mechanicals will be of equal quality/reliability.

Any opinions re the relative quality of the two brands' construction and
quality of cabin materials?

Thanks,

Mark

Assuming condition and everything else is equal.
Assuming you like both boats equal.
Assuming both have all the features you want and layout.

The Sundancer will be easier to sell when it comes time. People recognize
Sea Ray as a more expensive boat and for some reason are willing to pay more
(just like you are in terms of 2 years for the same price). Resale will be
easier as the name will draw more lookers.

I also assume they both have the V8 (350) engine. If not, pass on both as
the V6 is not enough engine.
