Express Cruiser FAQs

A cruiser is a powerboat designed for comfortable overnight stays with spacious cabins and amenities, suitable for longer trips and leisurely cruising. An express cruiser is a type of cruiser with a sleeker, sportier profile and an open cockpit layout, prioritizing speed and outdoor space while still offering cabin accommodations below deck. The main difference lies in the express cruiser's streamlined design and emphasis on performance and open-air entertaining.

Express cruisers typically have a draft between 2.5 to 4 feet, meaning they can safely operate in waters at least 3 to 5 feet deep, depending on the model, load, and drive type

Express cruisers are fast boats that typically cruise at 25–30 knots or more. Most are powered by twin diesel engines, often with pod drives, while smaller models may use stern drives. Though traditionally built with inboard power, many newer express cruisers now feature outboard engines. This shift is making them more versatile and easier to maintain.
