Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Formula 370 FX7 2013 vs Formula 45 Yacht 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Formula 370 FX7 2013 vs Formula 45 Yacht 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Formula 45 Yacht 2006 measures 48,0 feet overall (2006), giving it roughly 9,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Formula 370 FX7 2013 at 38,5 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Formula 45 Yacht 2006 tips the scales at 325 lbs — 174 lbs less than the Formula 370 FX7 2013 at 151 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 45 Yacht 2006 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Formula 370 FX7 2013 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Formula 45 Yacht 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Formula 45 Yacht 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 48,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Formula 370 FX7 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
