Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 vs Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 vs Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 measures 34,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 30,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 at 4,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 tips the scales at 1 236 lbs — 1 052 lbs more than the Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 at 184 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 375 hp, the Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 has a 75-hp advantage over the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007's 300-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 carries 235 gallons versus 165 gallons in the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007. 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 Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Rinker 370 Express Cruiser 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 4,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 10 that costs less to run day-to-day.
