1987 Chris-Craft 320 Amerosport Express

Slide into the cockpit and you’ll notice how beamy and open this 32-footer feels for a classic express. The wide helm bench keeps skipper and crew together, while the aft seating and generous swim platform make it easy to turn every cruise into a floating patio. Many owners appreciate the sturdy, overbuilt hardware and thick rails that were typical of this era, giving the boat a solid, reassuring feel underway. Below, the Amerosport layout is surprisingly bright, with big side windows and a practical galley that makes overnighting comfortable, not cramped. Engine access is straightforward, so routine checks don’t require a contortionist. It’s the kind of boat that invites tinkering, polishing, and pride of ownership.

In this region’s mix of choppy afternoons and calm evening runs, the 320 Amerosport’s deep, confident hull and wide beam shine. It has enough weight to smooth out short, steep waves, yet remains nimble around marinas and tight fairways. The open cockpit and generous swim platform are ideal for raft-ups, sandbar days, and waterside restaurants, while the enclosed cabin gives you a quiet retreat when the weather turns or nights get cool. With ample storage and a smart galley, weekend cruising is easy, and the classic styling fits right in among both vintage and modern boats on local waterways.
