The Glacier Bay 3470 Express Cruiser 2013 vs Glacier Bay 3480 Ocean Runner 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.
The Glacier Bay 3470 Express Cruiser 2013 carries a rated maximum of 2 hp. Engine data for the Glacier Bay 3480 Ocean Runner 2006 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.
Both boats are rated for 11 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
