We have decided to part with our 320 in order to move up to the new 355; the 
320 has been great and as a result of our cruising for the past 6 months on 
it the only reason for selling is to have a little more space on board.
We have a 2001 model, hull number 833, been well maintained, new canvas and 
enclosure; heat / air; full enclosure/ screen also; c - 80 chart plotter; 
auto - pilot; new batteries this year etc. Please contact me if there is any 
interested party. 252 923 0577 - not listed yet with a broker. We are in 
process of bringing boat back from FL. trip to NC
