Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Formula 382 FASTech 2007 vs Formula Boats 240 Bowrider 2014 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Formula 382 FASTech 2007 vs Formula Boats 240 Bowrider 2014 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.
The Formula Boats 240 Bowrider 2014 tops out at 370 hp. Engine specs for the Formula 382 FASTech 2007 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Formula 382 FASTech 2007 carries 195 gallons versus 6 gallons in the Formula Boats 240 Bowrider 2014. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Formula 382 FASTech 2007 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Formula Boats 240 Bowrider 2014 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Formula 382 FASTech 2007 could be the deciding factor.

The Formula Boats 240 Bowrider 2014 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
