The Rinker 276 CC 2010 is a deep-V design and the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2009 is a modified-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2009 measures 34,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 5,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the Rinker 276 CC 2010 at 28,9 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2009 tips the scales at 12 360 lbs - 6 690 lbs less than the Rinker 276 CC 2010 at 5 670 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2009 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Rinker 276 CC 2010 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2009 could be the deciding factor.
