Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Formula 350 Sun Sport 2008 vs Formula 37 PC 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Formula 350 Sun Sport 2008 against a deep vee Formula 37 PC 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Formula 350 Sun Sport 2008 at 35,0 ft versus Formula 37 PC 2013 at 37,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Formula 350 Sun Sport 2008 tips the scales at 1 295 lbs — 1 106 lbs more than the Formula 37 PC 2013 at 189 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 37 PC 2013 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Formula 350 Sun Sport 2008 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Formula 37 PC 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Formula 37 PC 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 37,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Formula 350 Sun Sport 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 10 that costs less to run day-to-day.
