Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sunsation 32 XRT 2012 vs Sunsation 36 S 2012 — Which Deep Vee Fits Your Needs?
When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Sunsation 32 XRT 2012 and the Sunsation 36 S 2012 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
The Sunsation 32 XRT 2012 carries a rated maximum of 320 hp. Engine data for the Sunsation 36 S 2012 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Sunsation 36 S 2012 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Sunsation 32 XRT 2012 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sunsation 36 S 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sunsation 36 S 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 36,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sunsation 32 XRT 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
