37 Sundancer 95/96 difference

[thruster]

Hi Guys, a newbie looking for a nice 37 Sundancer and have found 2 - 1 x 95 model and 1 x 96 model both Cat Diesels and similar hours and specs... was there a lot of difference in the models, the only difference I can pick from the website brochures is the 96 weighs 600lb more, any info and feedback would be good.

The only real difference between the two is that many features that were optional on a 95 became standard on a 96. Most 95's were ordered with these options with the exception of the stainless steel windshield frame. Few 95's came with this option.

Thanks J, I just checked and the 95 has the Aluminium frame, are there any problems with the Ally frame?

no other than the fact that the SS frame just looks much cooler.

Personally, I chose the 97 because the interior in the 95 and 96 appeared dated, in addition to the options they made standard. I preffered it over the 98 because of the lines, the lower arch looked to "fit" better as apposed to an after thought. However the diesels are a nice trade-off. Thats a tough decision, depending on the type of boating and money of course. Regardless the 370 is a great choice in any year, good luck.

Thanks Russ, any info is helpful, there are not many 370's in my area to go and have a look at to get a feel for size and different options, and there is only so much you can view from photos so any info I get is really appreciated,
mery Xams to all

Sean, how are you making out? Have you found a 370 yet? Made any decisions regarding year/gas/diesel?
