Tiny Dancer: A World-Class 2001 Pacific Seacraft Dana 24
Hull #307 | Located: La Paz, Mexico | Turnkey & Offshore Ready NOW REDUCED!!!
The Legend of the Dana 24"Tiny Dancer" is an exceptionally outfitted example of the Bill Crealock-designed Pacific Seacraft Dana 24. Often called the "biggest" 24-foot boat ever built, the Dana is a legendary bluewater pocket cruiser celebrated for its 6'1" standing headroom, robust hand-laminated fiberglass hull, and remarkable heavy-weather performance. Whether you are planning a solo crossing or exploring the stunning anchorages of the Sea of Cortez, this vessel offers the reliability and comfort of a 40-foot yacht in a nimble, manageable package.
Major Systems & Recent Upgrades (2021-2025)While her sister ships may be basic, "Tiny Dancer" has been meticulously upgraded for long-term energy independence and off-grid cruising.
Advanced Lithium Power: Equipped with two BattleBorn Lithium house batteries (2021), a SunPower solar array, and a Victron MPPT controller (New 2025). This system provides true 12V independence for the offshore sailor.
Offshore Rigging & Sails: A powerful cutter rig featuring a 2022 tri-radial genoa, a Carol Hasse-reinforced mainsail, and new Lewmar Self-Tailing winches (2021).
Water & Provisions: Stay out longer with the Spectra Katadyn Powersurvivor 40E watermaker and a Frigiboat Danfoss keel-cooled refrigeration system—essential for tropical cruising in Mexico.
Navigation & Safety: Fully integrated Garmin electronics including a 7607 XSV display, 4kW Radar, and AIS. Autopilot duties are handled by a Pelagic system with a wireless remote, backed up by a secondary Raymarine unit.
Tiny Dancer has so much more to offer. For a comprehensive list of equipment, tankage, and recent upgrades, please click the "Specs" tab at the top of this page.
Cruising the Sea of CortezCurrently lying in La Paz, BCS, Mexico, "Tiny Dancer" is already at the gateway to some of the world’s best cruising grounds. She is fully turnkey, having recently received new bottom paint (2025) and a freshly varnished cabin sole. Skip the "Baja Bash" and start your adventure in paradise today.
