Matching a deep vee Rampage 30 Express 2011 against a modified vee Rampage 41 Express 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Rampage 41 Express 2013 measures 41,5 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 12,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Rampage 30 Express 2011 at 28,8 feet (2011). At 12 lbs and 3 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Rampage 41 Express 2013 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Rampage 30 Express 2011 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Rampage 41 Express 2013 could be the deciding factor.
