Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Larson Cabrio 777 2012 vs Larson Marine San Marino 1990 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Larson Cabrio 777 2012 vs Larson Marine San Marino 1990 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 260 hp, the Larson Marine San Marino 1990 has a 234-hp advantage over the Larson Cabrio 777 2012's 26-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Larson Cabrio 777 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Larson Marine San Marino 1990 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Larson Cabrio 777 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Larson Cabrio 777 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 25,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Larson Marine San Marino 1990 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
