Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 vs Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 — A Close Look at Two Inflatable Non Rigids

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 and the Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 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 — 10 hp for the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 and 25 hp for the Zodiac Mark I HD 2009. 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 5 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 325 ACTI-V 2010 has a documented top speed of 23 mph. Speed data wasn't available for the other model.

Bottom line: The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 and Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.

Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 vs Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 or the Zodiac Mark I HD 2009?
The Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 is the longer of the two at 11,5 feet overall. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 comes in at 10,7 feet, making it roughly 0,8 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 is rated to a maximum of 25 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 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 Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 is Coast Guard rated for 5 passengers, while the Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 is certified for 5. 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 Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 and Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Zodiac Cadet Fastroller 325 ACTI-V 2010 and the Zodiac Mark I HD 2009 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.
