Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 vs Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 vs Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020 measures 36,0 feet overall (2020), giving it roughly 3,2 additional feet of deck space compared to the Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 at 32,8 feet (2011). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020 tips the scales at 16 027 lbs — 4 169 lbs less than the Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 at 11 858 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 carries a rated maximum of 2 hp. Engine data for the Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 carries 129 gallons versus 1 gallons in the Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 10 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 OB Outboard 2020 at 36,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Beneteau Flyer Gran Turismo 34 2011 at 32,8 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
