320 vs 322
 
Starting to arrange things for my 4ft itits in the future. :coolcowboy:

LOVE LOVE LOVE my 280, but looking for something with a little more cabin to extend our weekends. Only 3 of us.

Whats the difference between the 320, and 322? does either come with a Fridge (the only requirement from the wife)

I plan to install A/C. Is most of the room difference between the 280, and 320's in the cabin, cockpit, or bilge?

What kinda speeds should I expect with HO's? I don't like being passed! :evilb:

Also I've heard people say a 320 can scare ya? I have my 280 pretty well dialed in, and know what it can, and can't do, is it much worse with a 320?

I have a 320 That I have been thinking of selling and was even thinking of going back to a 280 since my wife has no plans on staying on the boat so we should talk.When you get a moment please feel free to call me @ (302)293-0487 and I can let you what I have.Alot of people on this board know me as well as the boat and they will also let you know that the boat is in perfect shape and runs like a scalded dog and no expense has been spared putting it together.So if you want please feel free to give me a call as I will also try and post a few pictures later.

The 320's are built off a shortened 41, where the 322 (and 300 SUB) is built off the original 30 design. (World record boat)

For me, I prefer the looks of the older hull...just my opinion.

The pad is different on the older vs. new too...

As far as room and fridge...not sure on either...

The 320 was redone as a 322 using the old 30' bottom to help improve handling . Hyper's boat is said to be clean and very fast from what I have heard .

Did it improve the handeling?????? I have yet to get any feedback on this. Who has a 322 and what is your opinion?

notda1 07-20-2011 09:15 PM

I had an old 30 that handled great and went over 100mph with ease .

Thanks everyone.

bill it will be at least next summer before I ready to pull the trigger. Gotta upgrade the truck, get the wife finished with school, and pay for all the surgeries my kid has had. (I was actually typing that while in the waiting room yesterday)

Like I said I love the 280, but could use a little bigger cabin.


I'd like to find something with a few more creature comforts for overnighting.
