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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 440 hp for the Riviera 39 Open Flybridge 2019 and 435 hp for the Riviera Yachts 445 SUV 2013. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Riviera Yachts 445 SUV 2013 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Riviera 39 Open Flybridge 2019 caps at 13.
