Zodiac 340 DL 2009 vs Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 — Which Inflatable Non Rigid Fits Your Needs?

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Zodiac 340 DL 2009 and the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 are inflatable non rigid designs with inflatable 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?

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 30 hp for the Zodiac 340 DL 2009 and 10 hp for the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.

Both boats are rated for 4 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.

The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 has a documented top speed of 23 mph. Speed data wasn't available for the other model.

Bottom line: The Zodiac 340 DL 2009 at 11,2 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 at 1,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.

The Zodiac 340 DL 2009 is the longer of the two at 11,2 feet overall. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 comes in at 1,0 feet, making it roughly 10,2 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Zodiac 340 DL 2009 is rated to a maximum of 30 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 tops out at 10 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that — matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Zodiac 340 DL 2009 is Coast Guard rated for 4 passengers, while the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 is certified for 4. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Are the Zodiac 340 DL 2009 and Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Zodiac 340 DL 2009 and the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 310 FR Acti-V INT-L 2008 are built by Zodiac. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
