Rodman 890 2016 vs Rodman Muse 44 2008 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Rodman 890 2016 vs Rodman Muse 44 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.
The Rodman Muse 44 2008 tops out at 370 hp. Engine specs for the Rodman 890 2016 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Rodman Muse 44 2008 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Rodman 890 2016 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Rodman Muse 44 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Rodman Muse 44 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 44,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
