The Sun Tracker PARTY CRUISER 32 Regency Edition 2008 is rated for 15 passengers, while the Sun Tracker Party Cruiser 32 2004 caps at 14. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sun Tracker PARTY CRUISER 32 Regency Edition 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sun Tracker PARTY CRUISER 32 Regency Edition 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 15 passengers and at 33,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sun Tracker Party Cruiser 32 2004 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 14 that costs less to run day-to-day.
