Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 vs Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 vs Formula 330 Sun Sport 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 at 31,0 ft versus Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 at 33,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 tips the scales at 1 095 lbs — 954 lbs less than the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 at 141 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.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 33,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 vs Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 or the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007?
The Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 is the longer of the two at 33,0 feet overall. The Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 comes in at 31,0 feet, making it roughly 2,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 or the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007?
For trailering, the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 has the edge at 141 lbs dry weight versus 1 095 lbs for the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 9 passengers, while the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 is certified for 10. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 measures 132" wide, compared to 122" for the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 and Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 18 gallons and 16 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
Are the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 and Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Formula 31 Performance Cruiser 2007 and the Formula 330 Sun Sport 2007 are built by Formula. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
