Sea Ray Sundancer 320
The Sea Ray Sundancer 320 is a 34-foot express cruiser, built from 2000 to 2018. Across 78 listings we have observed (model years 2002–2025), the median asking price is $69,000, with most boats asking $62,500 to $99,500.
BoatVerdict market snapshot
These are asking prices. No free or public source publishes US used-boat transaction prices, so nobody — us included — can honestly show you what these boats sold for. What we can show you is what 78 sellers are asking, which is the number you are actually negotiating against.
21 priced listings across 22 states. Enough for a range, not enough to be precise about any single year.
Method: Asking prices from active listings, de-duplicated so a re-posted boat counts once (108 raw listings collapsed to 78 distinct boats). Quartiles, not averages, so one outlier cannot move the band. Rounded to $500.
Coverage: Model years 2002–2025, 22 states, 50 metro areas. New-boat listings excluded.

The BoatVerdict take
- BoatVerdict listing data
Pricing is tight: the middle half of listings sits between $62,500 and $99,500, only a 1.6x spread. A boat asking well outside that band needs a reason, and "it is loaded" is usually not enough of one.
- BoatVerdict listing data
Supply is national: we saw listings in 22 states. You can shop this model without flying somewhere, and you will not be the only boat on the market when you sell.
- BoatVerdict analyst
Most-produced mid-size express cruiser in the US — that volume keeps it liquid, but gas-inboard cruisers are a shrinking buyer pool and slow movers above $150K.
- Recall (USCG/CPSC)
2 federal recall campaigns on file touch this builder. Check the specific hull against the recall list below before you put money down; remedies are free but only if the work was actually done.
Each point is tagged with the evidence behind it. Nothing here is a claim we cannot trace back to a counted listing, a federal record, or a named analyst judgement.

Asking prices from active listings we observed, not sold prices. No public source publishes US used-boat transaction prices; anyone showing you "sold" data for this market is estimating it. Years with fewer than 3 priced listings show the count only.
Method: Median and quartiles per model year, computed only where at least 3 priced listings exist for that year.

Known problems on the Sea Ray Sundancer 320
- High Twin gas MerCruiser inboards: exhaust manifolds/risers are a $2.5–4K replacement every ~6–8 years and the #1 deferred item.
- Medium Canvas, isinglass, and shore-power/AC systems are expensive to restore on neglected boats.
- Medium Older (pre-2010) units may have closed-cooling neglected — check coolant and heat-exchanger condition.
Severity is BoatVerdict's rating of what the fault costs to put right and how likely it is to end a deal, not a manufacturer classification. Recalls are listed separately below because a recall is a federal record and a known issue is not.
Method: Hand-authored from service patterns, owner reports and federal records for this model, then reviewed against our listing data.

What to inspect on a used Sea Ray Sundancer 320
- Pull and inspect exhaust manifolds/risers — assume replacement is due unless documented within 5 years. Model-specific item from BoatVerdict's Sea Ray Sundancer 320 profile.
- Test all shore power, AC, generator, and the marine head/holding system. Model-specific item from BoatVerdict's Sea Ray Sundancer 320 profile.
- Survey is non-negotiable on any inboard cruiser this age. Model-specific item from BoatVerdict's Sea Ray Sundancer 320 profile.
- Assume saltwater service unless the seller can prove otherwise: pull the engine cowling and look at the powerhead, check trim-cylinder rams for pitting, and open the battery and fuse boxes for green corrosion. 100% of the listings we observed for this model are in coastal states.
- On the older hulls, core moisture is the deal-breaker: sound the transom and the deck with a plastic mallet, and treat any soft or dull-sounding area as a survey-stopper rather than a bargaining chip. We observe listings back to 2002, so boats over 24 years old are actively traded in this model.
- Work the 3 known issues listed above into the sea trial, not the walkaround. Most of them only show up under load. BoatVerdict analyst profile for this model.
This list is specific to this model: analyst items for the hull, plus items driven by the engines and the regions we actually observe on Sundancer 320 listings. It is not a generic pre-purchase checklist, and it does not replace a surveyor.
What a Sundancer 320 costs to own
$11k – $33k per year
- 34 ft express cruiser, the published length for this model
- Saltwater berth, based on where most listings we see are located (FL)
- Includes insurance, storage, routine service, fuel at moderate seasonal use, and a reserve for wear items
- Excludes loan payments, major engine replacement, and refit work
This is a modelled band, not observed spend. Real cost swings hard on where you keep the boat and how much you use it.
Method: The same ownership-cost model BoatVerdict's paid Deal Report uses: boat class and length set the base band, then saltwater berth and size adjust it.
