Formula 382 FASTech 2009 vs Formula Boats Ss330 2005 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Formula 382 FASTech 2009 vs Formula Boats Ss330 2005 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 Ss330 2005 tops out at 330 hp. Engine specs for the Formula 382 FASTech 2009 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Formula 382 FASTech 2009 carries 195 gallons versus 15 gallons in the Formula Boats Ss330 2005. 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 2009 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Formula Boats Ss330 2005 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Formula 382 FASTech 2009 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Formula 382 FASTech 2009 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 Boats Ss330 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 10 that costs less to run day-to-day.
