2003 Sea Ray Sundancer Video Tours
Sea Ray Sundancer: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Sea Ray Sundancer 320 is a versatile combination cruiser and day boat available in either outboard or stern drive configurations. This model is designed to balance comfortable social spaces with practical overnight accommodations, making it suitable for weekend excursions as well as day cruising. The boat measures 32 feet 9 inches in length overall, with a beam of 10 feet 7 inches and a draft of 41 inches.
Exterior Design and Cockpit
The cockpit serves as the main gathering area and features an L-shaped seating arrangement that extends across the stern and up the port side, complete with upscale upholstery treatments including custom embroidery and multi-density dry fast foam. A teak pedestal table adds functionality, while storage is abundant beneath the seats, including dedicated space for a 36-quart carry-on cooler. The observer seat has a flip-backrest to switch between forward and aft facing, and opposing seating is located to starboard with storage and stereo components beneath. A refreshment center to starboard includes a covered stainless steel sink, an electric grill, a dual voltage fridge, and a tip-out trash receptacle. Flooring options include snap-in SeaDek matting, carpet, woven vinyl, or teak. Overhead, the cockpit is protected by either a bimini arch or a fiberglass hardtop standing 6 feet 9 inches above the deck, equipped with speakers, a canvas sunshade, and an extendable shore shade awning. Courtesy and underwater lighting enhance the ambiance, and a centrally mounted hook simplifies securing the cockpit cover. Boarding is facilitated by side steps and an angled starboard walkthrough leading to a large swim platform measuring 58 inches, which includes a 17-inch hydraulic extension and a recessed hot and cold shower. The transom hatch reveals extensive storage space.
Bow and Forward Seating
Externally, the Sundancer 320 exhibits the classic Sundancer profile with high rails extending from midships forward to the ground tackle. Internally, the bow is configured as a bow rider with a 16-inch wide port side walkthrough and multiple storage compartments. The forward seating includes three forward-facing seats with padded headrests and flip-down armrests, complemented by a 49-inch lounge extending from the seat backs. To starboard, a stereo remote, connectivity ports, beverage holder, and speaker are integrated for passenger convenience. A dedicated storage area for the cockpit table is located within the walkthrough bulwarks.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the cabin features a convertible dinette, a head, and a mid-cabin sleeping area. The main salon offers typical V-shaped seating with 3 feet 7 inches of headroom and a single pedestal table. A 24-inch television is mounted forward, while a refrigerator and microwave are positioned aft to port. Natural light and ventilation are provided by hall-side windows and opening ports. The dinette converts into a berth measuring 77 inches wide at the aft end, tapering to 21 inches forward, with a full length of 60 inches. Aft of the salon are twin berths measuring 30 inches wide by 72 inches long, which can be converted into a larger single berth. Storage compartments and a second 24-inch flat screen television are located on the aft bulkhead. The head includes a mirrored cabinet, an opening port window, a vessel sink set in a solid surface countertop, and storage beneath the vanity. The vacuum-flush toilet is connected to a 28-gallon holding tank, and a separate shower wand creates a wet head configuration. Air conditioning is available for the entire lower deck, with an option for two-zone climate control that includes the cockpit.
Operational Features and Systems
The bow rail is uniquely designed to enhance safety while allowing convenient access to the windlass and enabling a Euro-style chain replacement for bow-end docking. The ground tackle is concealed beneath a hatch secured by a lift and lock latch, with a backup manual handle stored below. The windlass leads to a stainless steel anchor roller supporting a plow-style anchor, and an 8-inch cleat secures the rode to relieve load on the windlass. Vendor storage compartments flank the anchor locker. In the cockpit, the port seat back lifts to reveal the main battery switches. The boat is equipped with eight 10-inch through-bolted and logoed cleats, including midship cleats. Shore power, TV, main breakers, and city water connections are concealed behind a hatch on the port transom. The main electrical panel is located aft, near the dinette bulkhead, and includes 10-volt, 12-volt, and ignition circuits. The engine compartment is accessed via an electrically actuated hatch controlled from the helm, with dedicated storage for the cockpit table and pedestal nearby.
Power and Performance
Standard propulsion consists of twin 300 horsepower Mercruiser 6.2-liter MPI engines paired with Bravo 3 stern drives. Upgraded options include twin 350 horsepower 6.2-liter engines with C-Core drives, Axios joystick control, SmartCraft digital throttle and shift, and a SmartCraft vessel view display. Alternatively, twin 260 horsepower TDI diesel engines are available. Daily maintenance checkpoints are easily accessible at the front of the engines, and a 5 kW generator is installed forward in the engine compartment. Engine room vents are positioned to the sides with a stylized design. The helm features a soft-touch dash with analog gauges that can be upgraded to dual 9-inch or 12-inch Simrad displays. Drink holders flank the helm, alongside a spotlight remote and connectivity ports. The Fusion Apollo stereo system offers Wi-Fi, DSP, and supports up to seven remotes. Controls include a well-organized switch panel, a wrapped tilt steering wheel, auto trim for the variable running surface tabs, and an Axis joystick positioned behind the helm seats. The helm seats are double-wide with individual 19-inch flip bolsters and custom upholstery.
Performance Evaluation
During testing with twin 350 horsepower Mercruiser engines equipped with 24-pitch Bravo 3 propellers, the Sundancer 320 achieved a top speed of 44.7 miles per hour at 5,400 rpm. An economical cruise speed of 34.2 miles per hour at 4,000 rpm yielded a fuel burn of 33 gallons per hour, translating to approximately one mile per gallon and a range of 159 miles with a 10 percent fuel reserve from the 170-gallon capacity. The boat planes quickly in 7.1 seconds with an initial bow rise that settles by 25 miles per hour as the variable running surface tabs engage. Acceleration to 20 miles per hour took 10.2 seconds, and to 30 miles per hour, 17.4 seconds. Handling is forgiving and solid, with no hull slap or pounding when crossing wakes and a gentle 16-degree roll into turns. The auto trim feature for the running surface tabs stabilizes the boat effectively, and joystick control enhances close-quarters maneuvering by shifting the pivot point forward for precision.
Conclusion
The Sea Ray Sundancer 320 presents a well-rounded package as both a comfortable cruiser and an engaging day boat. Its multiple social zones, including the cockpit and bow seating areas, provide ample space for entertaining guests, while the thoughtfully designed lower deck accommodates overnight stays with practical amenities. The boat's handling characteristics and performance reflect its cruising focus, offering a smooth, stable, and responsive ride. The addition of a bow gathering area without compromising interior functionality enhances the appeal of this model within the popular Sundancer lineup.
