Major Features
- Dual dining areas. Normally a boat in this class
and size range we see a dedicated forward berth that can convert into a
cozy forward dining banquetteOR, we see a forward berth that can not
be converted but there is a table with a bench settee amidships. In the
310 Sea Ray designers have given owners the option of one or the
otherOR, possibly if there is a family aboard or a crowd, both could be
used at the same time.
- Rotating helm seat. Sea Ray caught onto this trend long time ago and
were surprised it hasnt taken root in other companies. Normally there
is a reversible helm seat which does little good due to the proximity of
an entertainment/refreshment center just behind. Sea Ray has taken its
double wide helm seat, and allowed it to rotate to join the crowd in the
cockpit or sit and watch the action off the stern.
- Well-done hull-side storage. It is not often that we put storage on
the distinguishing list, but the 310 deserves the recognition. Forward,
in the V-berth area, Sea Ray has fitted overhead cabinets in the bow
flare along the sides. This is expensive to do, which is why most
builders in class avoid it. Second, amidships at the booth dinette, Sea
Ray has built in cabinets fore, aft and above the portlight. Again, this
is the sort of important detail usually seen only in larger or far
higher-priced boats. Stainless steel trimmed windshield frame.
- Electrically actuated engine hatch.
- Maple wood lower deck.
- Extensive use of wood cabinetry
- Canvas curtains for the cockpit.
- Engine room automatic fire suppression system with manual over-ride.
The CockpitTo port is an aft-facing single seat/lounger that creates a booth dinette arrangement with the aft bench seat. Add a filler piece and it becomes a full lounger where someone can stretch and sun bath or snooze at anchor. This, together with the fold-down aft seat, and the swing-around double-wide helm seat provides room for two or three people to stretch out under the sun or stars. Have a Party 8 people can sit in this cockpit while at anchor. The pedestal-mounted table can be removed for more walk-around room, if that is needed. To starboard is an entertainment center, with sink and ample storage and a dual voltage refrigerator below.
The HelmInstrument panel and functions are well-placed. Since there is a double wide helm seat, the nav display is off to port so the observer can do a fair share of the navigational workload, leaving the helmsman to keep his or her eyes focused outside the boat.
Gauges are across the top of the dash with sunshades above to keep glare down. The dash is a dark color to reduce glare on the windscreen. Multiple SmartCraft displays are standard so the information stream is as customizable. Digital throttles are mounted at an angle, and while Id always like to see them mounted on the horizontal, their smooth operation still makes this workable.
Steering is power assisted with a wood accent, tilting steering wheel. As is typical of boats in this size range, the windshield frame could be a little higher, thus aiding in visibility in the no-wake range, but at speed, its of little to no hindrance because of the 5-degree running angle which will have the skipper looking through the glass.
CabinThe Mid Cabin. At this size range, the mid berth takes on a more permanent role of being a berth, rather than the occasional sitting room that converts to a berth that we see in the larger Dancers. Like all boats in this size range it is the crawl-in variety nestled under the bridge deck. I think Sea Ray has done a good job of making what could otherwise be a gloomy storage compartment some that is actually livable.
First, the 310 has wood cabinetry that doubles as a headboard. Second, there are two reading lights, and finally there is an overhead, opening hatch above the head of the berth. This not only lets in light but also provides much needed ventilation.
Salon/galley/dinette. As noted above the accommodations layout of the 310 Sundancer is versatile. Lets take it a function at time. First, dining or cocktails: With both tables up eight people can be seated six in the wraparound banquette forward and two in the both to starboard. While eight people might be stretching the limitations of the 310s galley a bit, certainly that many could be seated for drinks or to get out of rainy weather.
More likely dining below will be limited to a couple, two couples or a family. Here the 310s two galleys should certainly be adequate for any creative chef. With four people sitting around the table forward, the starboard dinette table is opened up to use as a food prep counter.
The dinette, to starboard, negates the need for a table forward if there is only a couple aoard. Note the cabinets fore, aft, and above the portlight. There is never enough storage space on a boat and this treatment is a bit unusual in this class and much appreciated.
In Sleep Mode. The booth dinette across from the galley converts to a large single berth and the banquette in the bow makes into a large double or queen. These two beds along with the mid cabin means the boat can easily sleep five adults, and possibly a family of six. Not bad for a 31-footer.
The head is to starboard and features a Vacuflush toilet with holding tank and pump out as standard. It is a wet head with a shower wand-type faucet.
Decking is maple and cabinetry is either cherry or maple wood. Note the privacy curtain that separates the V-berth from the rest of the salon. The cabinetry up against the overhead in the bow area is unusual on this size boat and we give full marks to Sea Ray for making use of this space.
The galley features the usual amenities of microwave, dual voltage refrigerator, and single burner stove. The trash receptacle is located under the sink. What is not so usual is the standard maple wood decking.

Importing a Boat to Australia
We have some of the best rates for RORO-shipping to Australia in the U.S. and we serve the ports of Brisbane, Adelaide, Port Kembla, Fremantle, and Melbourne. Whether you are a repeat customer or a first-time buyer, heres a few tips and reminders about buying, shipping, and importing boats and yachts to Australia from the U.S.
Finding the right boat.Buying a boat from another country often means dealing with people that you never met or dealt with in the past. Theres tons of free classified ads and Craigs list-type re-advertisers on the internet with deals just too good to be true. If it sounds too good, then, youd guessed it, it probably is a scam.
Do your research. Be realistic. Partner up with a Pro (like us).
We suggest you deal with us. Each week we get shipping, export, and certification inquiries from some of the countrys well respected marine dealers. We work in close cooperation with country-wide brand name retailers such as Marinemax and with the brand stores of Regal, Chaparral, Monterey, Bayliner, Larson just to mention a few.
We are a fully licensed Non Vessel Operating Common Carrier by the Federal Maritime Commission and as such we operate our own in-house shipping company. We have exclusive contracts with some of the largest steamship companies in the world. As one of the rather few NVOCCs we have the authority to buy and resell space on ocean-going cargo ships and issue our own bills of lading. What does this mean for you? As an individual? Well, by contacting us directly you are likely to save considerable time and money by dealing directly with the contract holder (as opposed to a string of middlemen).
Buying a boat directly from us or through our brokerage divisionBoats International, Inc. is our own in-house discount boat dealership. We buy bulk trade-ins from the big retailers but we also buy from banks and individuals as well. For the past 20+ years our focus have been to absorb distressed inventory and floor-plan boats from cash-strapped dealers and resell these locally and overseas. As we now are completing our store expansion project (September, 2011) we will be able to take on even more inventory then in the past and also have space over to showcase brokerage and consignment boats.
Most of our international buyers rely on our reputation and expertise as a key player on the U.S. domestic and international boat market and they seek our help to source the boat(s) that they seek. If we do not have what they seek in stock well be sure to find it through our network of dealers and banks for the right money.
Whether your buying a stock boat from us or one from another dealer we are well equipped to assist you with every step from inspection to final delivery of your boat or yacht to Australia. For example we can help you or your client with:
Finding a Boat or Yachtthat meets (or exceeds) your requirements in terms of condition, equipment, and of course price
Negotiate the Deal(including but not limited to title searches, accident reports, previous owner status, etc)
Survey & Physical Inspection(we have a longstanding partnership with a number of accredited marine surveyors, mechanics, and experts in most regions of the country)
Closing the Dealwe often act as intermediary for international buyers as most of our overseas clients prefer only to work with one turn-key partner
Pre-shipping Logisticsonce the deal is done and the boat paid for we assist in coordinating haul-outs, marina loadings, boat ramp pickups and inland U.S. land transport/trucking through our in-house logistics company Boatlogistic.com, Inc.
Pre-Export Preparation Sanitation, Fumigation, De-gassing of refrigerants.Australia has (as you probably know already) very specific and strict import restrictions for boats and vessels. The governing body is the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) which is part of the Australian Governments Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. Depending on the geographical location of the boat and the required preparation of the vessel we can either prepare the boat for export to Australia while underway, or we can have it completed at our marina in Pompano Beach, Florida.
Australian Shipping Services Teamour Australian Shipping Services Team assist with Sanitize boats & yachts prior to port delivery AQIS will stop all boats that are dirty and soiled to check for insect/parasite infestations
Fumigation of boats and cradles according to AQIS-standard (Methyl Bromide 3.0 lbs / 1,000 cubic feet / 24 hrs) De-gassing of
Air-conditioning Systems (AC) Refrigeration HVAC HFC HCFC Providing HVAC Customs Certification
With our certificates our customer are NOT REQUIRED to obtain the otherwise very expensive Australian import licenses.
Trailer Import Permit AssistanceThe Australian Governments Department of Infrastructure and Transport requires that all imported boat trailers have an Import Approval. You can read more about the approval at the Departments website or you can download the .pdf-application Import a Small Road Trailer here.
Import Duties and Goods and Services Tax (GST)If youre buying a US-made boat, according to the United States-Australia Free Trade Agreement, you arent required to pay the 5% duty (as well supply the required waiver forms). You must, however pay 10% GST on all coss associated with the purchase of the the boat, ocean freight, duty, wharf charges, customs broker fees, and destination port fees..
ISPM-15 No Worries Mate We Fumigate All Wooden Cradles & Provide Proof of FumigationInternational Standards For Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15) is an International Phytosanitary Measure developed by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) that directly addresses the need to treat wood materials of a thickness greater than 6mm, used to ship products between countries. Its main purpose is to prevent the international transport and spread of disease and insects that could negatively affect plants or ecosystems. ISPM 15 affects all wood packaging material (pallets, crates, dunnages, etc.) requiring that they be debarked and then heat treated or fumigated with methyl bromide and stamped or branded,[1] with a mark of compliance. This mark of compliance is colloquially known as the wheat stamp. Products exempt from the ISPM 15 are made from alternative material, like paper, plastic or wood panel products (i.e. OSB, hardboard, and plywood).Customs Broker Fees & Destination Charges in AustraliaTheres tons of websites out there claiming to be the know-it-all for import questions concerning boats & yachts to Australia. Fortunately, we are not one of them. While we can recommend quite a few competent companies in Australia it is ultimately up to you to pick a customs partner in your home port. As is true for all facets of our business we believe that there are no shortcuts to sustained success in business (or life for that matter). That said we recommend that you seek the advice of an Australian Customs Broker who is licensed by the Customs Brokers and Forwarders Council of Australia Inc CBFCA-Australia Website to inquire about recent legal and import changes pertaining to your planned import.

For the past 20+ years our focus have been to absorb distressed inventory and floor-plan boats from cash-strapped dealers and resell these locally and overseas. As we now are completing our store expansion project (September, 2011) we will be able to take on even more inventory then in the past and also have space over to showcase brokerage and consignment boats.
Most of our international buyers rely on our reputation and expertise as a key player on the U.S. domestic and international boat market and they seek our help to source the boat(s) that they seek. If we do not have what they seek in stock well be sure to find it through our network of dealers and banks for the right money.
Whether your buying a stock boat from us or one from another dealer we are well equipped to assist you with every step from inspection to final delivery of your boat or yacht to Australia. For example we can help you or your client with:
Finding a Boat or Yachtthat meets (or exceeds) your requirements in terms of condition, equipment, and of course price

Pre-Export Preparation Sanitation, Fumigation, De-gassing of refrigerants.Australia has (as you probably know already) very specific and strict import restrictions for boats and vessels. The governing body is the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) which is part of the Australian Governments Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. Depending on the geographical location of the boat and the required preparation of the vessel we can either prepare the boat for export to Australia while underway, or we can have it completed at our marina in Pompano Beach, Florida.

ISPM-15 No Worries Mate We Fumigate All Wooden Cradles & Provide Proof of FumigationInternational Standards For Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15) is an International Phytosanitary Measure developed by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) that directly addresses the need to treat wood materials of a thickness greater than 6mm, used to ship products between countries. Its main purpose is to prevent the international transport and spread of disease and insects that could negatively affect plants or ecoystems. ISPM 15 affects all wood packaging material (pallets, crates, dunnages, etc.) requiring that they be debarked and then heat treated or fumigated with methyl bromide and stamped or branded,[1] with a mark of compliance. This mark of compliance is colloquially known as the wheat stamp. Products exempt from the ISPM 15 are made from alternative material, like paper, plastic or wood panel products (i.e. OSB, hardboard, and plywood).Customs Broker Fees & Destination Charges in AustraliaTheres tons of websites out there claiming to be the know-it-all for import questions concerning boats & yachts to Australia. Fortunately, we are not one of them. While we can recommend quite a few competent companies in Australia it is ultimately up to you to pick a customs partner in your home port. As is true for all facets of our business we believe that there are no shortcuts to sustained success in business (or life for that matter). That said we recommend that you seek the advice of an Australian Customs Broker who is licensed by the Customs Brokers and Forwarders Council of Australia Inc CBFCA-Australia Website to inquire about recent legal and import changes pertaining to your planned import.
