Construction

The 32' Openwere built using typical fiberglass construction including polyester resin, E-type fiberglass woven roving, balsa coring and marine grade plywood strings encapsulated in fiberglass. Note that from 1988 to 1991, Luhrs used balsa to core the whole hull, bottom and sides. From 1992 till the end of production, the bottom was solid glass with balsa coring only in the hull side above the waterline. The deck was molded of solid glass with balsa coring added for additional stiffness in the cockpit, side and foredecks. The hull to deck joint uses two outboard turned flanges as the mating surface with SS fastners and adhesive/caulk.

Accommodations

Very comfortable cabin with very flexible layout. Dinette forward converts to a large double berth, individual reading lights, ventilation hatch, privacy curtain, and hanging lockers. Aft to port is a large L-shaped lounge, that converts to another double berth and its backrest flips up to a pullman style single berth. Ventilation hatch above.

This boat has been updated and maintained to compare to any current line-up of pocket sport fishermen. The huge cockpit, walk around helm, and seating makes a great layout. The boat handles seas very well, had a nice dry ride on plane, and is very easily maneuverable She also has great accommodations down in the cabin with a full galley, enclosed head, AC/Heat, DIESEL NextGen 5KW genset, corian counters, queen island berth forward.

The 320 Open is one of Luhrs most popular models and if you spend any time on the boat you'll quick learn why.

Broker Comments

I think "Aluhr" represents a very good value in the current boating market. With so many boaters clambering toward outboard powered boats, its such a pleasure to get aboard an old school inboard fishing boat with all the terrific features these types of boats offer. For the right buyer, this boat offers a fantastic value for the dollar. The condition is good and the current owner has obliviously been doing continual updates thru his years of ownership. The next owner will need to continue with these updates, which is always the case when you buying into a 23 year boat.
