When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Cruisers Yachts 350 Express 2013 and the Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2012 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Cruisers Yachts 350 Express 2013 at 35,5 ft versus Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2012 at 38,0 ft. At 175 lbs and 233 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
