Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2013 vs Cruisers Yachts 447 Sport Sedan 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2013 vs Cruisers Yachts 447 Sport Sedan 2007 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.

At 233 lbs and 295 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.
The Cruisers Yachts 447 Sport Sedan 2007 tops out at 480 hp. Engine specs for the Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2013 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Cruisers Yachts 447 Sport Sedan 2007 carries 375 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Bottom line: The Cruisers Yachts 447 Sport Sedan 2007 at 45,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Cruisers Yachts 380 Express 2013 at 38,0 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.
