Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Larson FX 1750 TL O/B 2013 vs Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Larson FX 1750 TL O/B 2013 vs Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 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 Larson FX 1750 TL O/B 2013 carries a rated maximum of 90 hp. Engine data for the Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 carries 125 gallons versus 22 gallons in the Larson FX 1750 TL O/B 2013. 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 Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Larson FX 1750 TL O/B 2013 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Larson Marine Cabrio 290 2001 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 29,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Larson FX 1750 TL O/B 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
