Stamas 290 Express Inboard 2007 vs Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Stamas 290 Express Inboard 2007 vs Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007 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.

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 Stamas 290 Express Inboard 2007 carries a rated maximum of 500 hp. Engine data for the Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007 wasn't available in our records - check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007 carries 400 gallons versus 208 gallons in the Stamas 290 Express Inboard 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 Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Stamas 290 Express Inboard 2007 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Stamas 370 Express Inboard 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 11 passengers and at 39,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Stamas 290 Express Inboard 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
