Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Formula 350 Sun Sport 2010 vs Formula 37 Cruiser 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Formula 350 Sun Sport 2010 vs Formula 37 Cruiser 2006 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 350 Sun Sport 2010 at 35,0 ft versus Formula 37 Cruiser 2006 at 38,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Formula 37 Cruiser 2006 tips the scales at 17 605 lbs — 16 258 lbs less than the Formula 350 Sun Sport 2010 at 1 347 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 Cruiser 2006 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Formula 350 Sun Sport 2010 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 Cruiser 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Formula 37 Cruiser 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 38,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Formula 350 Sun Sport 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 10 that costs less to run day-to-day.
