1997 Sea Ray 330 Sundancer

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the 330 Sundancer makes smart use of every inch. The wide beam gives the cockpit a generous social zone, with wraparound seating that still leaves room to move when lines need tending. Down below, the mid-cabin layout is ideal for weekenders: a real galley with space to prep, a surprisingly roomy head, and a convertible dinette that doesn’t feel like an afterthought. At the helm, the sightlines are better than many newer boats, and the big, solid-feeling windshield frame inspires confidence when seas get lumpy. Classic Sea Ray joinery and upholstery details still hold up, giving the cabin a warm, upscale feel that’s aged gracefully.

For this cruising area, the 330 Sundancer hits a sweet spot between comfort and manageability. Its length and beam handle afternoon chop and boat wakes with composure, yet it’s still easy to dock in tighter slips and busy marinas. The roomy cockpit works well for long days on the hook, with enough seating for friends without feeling crowded. Below, the air-conditioned cabin, full galley, and private sleeping spaces make overnight rafting and long weekend runs realistic, not just aspirational. With twin inboards and a solid deep-V hull, it tracks confidently on open stretches while offering the shallow draft needed to explore coves, rivers, and quieter anchorages that larger boats can’t reach.
