Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sunsation 32 XRT 2012 vs Sunsation 36 SS 2013 — 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 SS 2013 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 SS 2013 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 SS 2013 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 SS 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sunsation 36 SS 2013 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.
