Rinker

Drop any number of names on Rinker's new 310 Express Cruiser: weekender, peoplepleaser, portable vacation station. I prefer to call it a switch-hitter, a more-than-competent boat at serving two primary cruising functions. First, it's the largest-volume cruiser for its length that I've tested, with enough space to sleep eight for a weekend and stow all their gear, plus food and supplies, in an organized fashion. Yet, some nifty engineering applied to the topsides arrangement also makes it ideal for those whose boating pleasure comes from entertaining a crowd for a day on the bay.
