The Formula 400 FX8 2013 vs Formula Boats 380 Super Sport Crossover 2021 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 380 Super Sport Crossover 2021 tops out at 520 hp. Engine specs for the Formula 400 FX8 2013 aren't listed - confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Formula 400 FX8 2013 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Formula Boats 380 Super Sport Crossover 2021 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Formula 400 FX8 2013 could be the deciding factor.
