Owner Experience Review
Owners typically use the 330DAbySEA RAYfor weekend family cruising with overnights and relaxed day boating, with some retrofitting rod holders to turn the cockpit into a casual fishing platform. Below, the mid-cabin layout with a dinette and forward berth is repeatedly described as roomy enough for couples and families for a weekend, with a usable galley and sensible cabin ergonomics for a 33' cruiser. Minor fit-and-finish annoyances do surface in threads—for example, a head-door handle that needed adjustment more than once.
On the water, one owner reports cruising at 23–25 knots at 3300–3500 RPM while burning roughly 30–32 GPH and averaging about 0.9 SMPG. The reintroduced 2008+ hull carries a deeper V (about 21° of transom deadrise) and is credited by owners and reviewers with improved sea-keeping versus earlier 330s. A quirk noted by another owner: in moderate chop, a chart plotter would reset each time the boat hit a wave.
Maintenance threads often center on electricals: battery drain problems traced to stuck or failed shower sump pumps and wiring faults, and the importance of checking battery configuration and bilge/sump wiring. For older SEA RAYexamples, repeated cautions about potential stringer/hidden-wood rot make a thorough survey of stringers and deck joints essential. Owners also mention aging electronics and engine-service costs, and that batteries are commonly located in the engine compartment and under bench seats, which can affect access.
Pros and Cons
- Mid-cabin layout with dinette and a usable galley feels roomy enough for couples and families on weekend trips.
- Versatile for day boating with the cockpit also used for occasional fishing when owners add rod holders.
- The 2008+ deeper-V hull (about 21°) is reported to improve sea-keeping over earlier versions.
- Electrical and battery drain issues are reported; check battery configuration and bilge/shower sump wiring.
- Older SEA RAYexamples carry a risk of stringer/hidden-wood rot, so a careful survey of stringers and deck joints is essential.
- Owners cite aging electronics and minor fit-and-finish quirks, including a chart plotter that can reset in chop and a loose head-door handle.
