Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 vs Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 vs Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013 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 11,4 additional feet of deck space compared to the Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013 at 22,6 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013 tips the scales at 4 135 lbs — 2 899 lbs less than the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 at 1 236 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 Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 carries a rated maximum of 300 hp. Engine data for the Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 carries 165 gallons versus 34 gallons in the Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 10 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Rinker 320 Express Cruiser 2007 at 34,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Rinker Captiva 220 MTXC 2013 at 22,6 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
