Formula 37 Cruiser 2005 vs Formula 370 Super Sport 2013: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Formula 37 Cruiser 2005 vs Formula 370 Super Sport 2013 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 37 Cruiser 2005 at 38,0 ft versus Formula 370 Super Sport 2013 at 38,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Formula 37 Cruiser 2005 tips the scales at 17 605 lbs - 2 505 lbs more than the Formula 370 Super Sport 2013 at 15 100 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.
Both boats are rated for 11 passengers - a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Formula 37 Cruiser 2005 and Formula 370 Super Sport 2013 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
