Admired and respected by all, there is simply nothing like her. The perfect blend of luxurious cruising, meets blue water capability...mini mega-yacht meets expedition ship. The esteemed Robert Perry designed her. He will tell you she's got the best cockpit and galley he has ever drawn. Brilliantly executed by Howdy Bailey in Aluminum. The quality of materials and workmanship is simply extraordinary and would cost millions to replicate. Solid Cherry joinery, Hall Carbon Fiber mast, Reckmann furlers, Dyneema rigging, North Sails, mostly redundant systems, 3 watertight bulkheads... She is easy to single hand, while your sheltered from the weather and seas and a powerful, first-class, offshore pilothouse sailing vessel well maintained and upgraded with a open checkbook.
She has been updated and improved like almost no other. Improvements such as 3 new North Sails, new Reckmann Genoa furler, Hall carbon spars with in-mast furling plus all new rod rigging ( 2015), new engine and generator seven years earlier, are indicative of the standard by which Dancin' Bare V has been cared for. She is one those rare boats that needs to be seen, as she is all the more impressive in person. If anything, photos fail to convey the detail and condition of this special vessel.
ACCOMMODATIONS
Three private staterooms, plus a skipper’s/crew single. Her galley, truly exceptional in form, function and especially size, integrates well with her equally generous salon. Below decks joinery is first-class varnished cherry with raised-panel doors, drawers and locker fronts.
MAIN SALON
The salon is open and airy with a U-shaped settee to starboard with a beautiful four-leaf, up/down multi-facet table that easily converts from cocktails to dining. To port is a fore and aft bench-style settee. Outboard of the settees are glass-front lockers and large hull ports with shades. An entertainment-sized flat screen TV is mounted on the forward starboard bulkhead. The navigation station is aft to starboard, and an open bar/staging counter with access to the galley is to port at the bottom of the companionway.
Main Salon Additional Features:
OWNER’S STATEROOM
The owner’s stateroom, aft, has a centerline queen berth. The stateroom runs full-beam, providing uncommonly generous seating, book shelves, lockers, cabinets/drawers and varnished teak and holly floor space. Few sailing vessels of her size can match the generous feel of Dancin' Bare V’s owner’s quarters.
Owner’s Cabin Additional Features:
GUEST STATEROOMS
Forward of the salon are two double staterooms for guests. Both have private heads, each with stall shower. The VIP guest stateroom to starboard accommodates a double berth, while the port guest stateroom has upper and lower single berths. Joinery, like the rest of the boat, is of varnished cherry, and there are opening ports with shades, plus teak and holly soles.
Guest Staterooms, Additional Features:
GALLEY
Dancin Bare V’s exceptional galley is aft of the salon and behind the companionway. The space is so great, one is tempted to call it a kitchen -- an excellent live-aboard layout!
Galley Equipment:
MIDSHIP SKIPPER’S/CREW CABIN
Across from the galley is the skipper’s/crew single cabin. This cabin is well-placed and has decent storage under the berth. The vessel’s washer/dryer is located at the entryway facing aft, and there is a hanging locker forward.

Spectra Newport 400 MKII: Operates on as little as 15 watts per gallon (4 watts per liter), making it possible to run your system on a small generator, solar, wind or batteries. Multi-speed capacity allows machine operation on high mode for maximum product flow or low mode for maximum efficiency, making it ideal for onboard power management. The system will automatically switch to low mode to extend the pre-filter life in challenging feed water. The standard MPC 5000 control system automatically operates and maintains your watermaker, fresh water flushing the system to keep it clean to extend your system’s lifespan.
