Formula 400 Super Sport 2005 vs Formula Boats 382 FASTech 2009 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Formula 400 Super Sport 2005 vs Formula Boats 382 FASTech 2009 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 382 FASTech 2009 tops out at 350 hp. Engine specs for the Formula 400 Super Sport 2005 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Formula Boats 382 FASTech 2009 carries 176 gallons versus 25 gallons in the Formula 400 Super Sport 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 400 Super Sport 2005 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Formula Boats 382 FASTech 2009 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 Super Sport 2005 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Formula 400 Super Sport 2005 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 41,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Formula Boats 382 FASTech 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
