Matching a inflatable non rigid Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 against a inflatable rigid Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 at 10,7 ft versus Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 at 11,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 tips the scales at 441 lbs — 353 lbs less than the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 at 88 lbs. 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 10 hp for the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 and 30 hp for the Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 could be the deciding factor.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 comes in at 9 lbs per hp versus 15 lbs per hp for the Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
Top speed is rated at 30 mph for the Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 and 23 mph for the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012.
The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 is an inflatable design — lighter, easier to store, and quicker to launch from a beach or dock without a slipway. The Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 is a rigid hull, which typically offers a more confident ride in chop and easier maintenance over the long term.
Bottom line: Choose the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V INT-L 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 10,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Zodiac Yachtline Deluxe 340 DL 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
